This hotel is maintained by a typical low-priced hotel. The air conditioning didn't work in either room (we had to move and didn't want to move again). The maintenance person did not know how to check the temperature of the air conditioner, so obviously wasn't trained to fix it, nor did he speak English so it was impossible to communicate. The check-in was a nightmare, as the day shift did not communicate with the night staff the info needed to check in. The night desk person was rude to me and kept telling me "You can leave", with 4 teenagers at about 10 at night. Rude behavior. The food and drinks were over-priced, and their excuse was that you were in downtown Tampa. I guess they didn't think they needed to provide the proper service because of their location. Wrong! On Saturday afternoon, they had a DJ at the pool that had the bass cranked up so loud it woke me up from an afternoon nap... it was literally so loud the whole hotel was shaking. Turning up the TV didn't help, it was louder. It was supposedly a pool party, but there were only 5 people by the pool and 1 at the bar! The servers were nice and helpful, but that is the best I can say for the whole experience.
