The room was good for the price and is only about a 10 minute drive to Clearwater beach. Free parking and free breakfast are the main benefits, and resort fees were only $13 dollars for 5 days. I’ve stayed several places on the beach, but if you’re looking for a budget friendly hotel close to everything, this is a good choice, just get a rental car.

Parking was free and plentiful. Renovations are taking place and we received email notifying us. No reception as such, temporary desk. Cold coffee at 4.00 when we checked in. We collected one in the evening. We were flying home today so chose this as close to Tampa Airport. Unfortunately we had noise through the evening and it went on until after 2.00 a.m. we had very little, and intermittent sleep and woke up by boys chasing each other around outside our room...we were fed up and tired. When we asked for pool towels we were given 2 very small towels so i asked for another, i was told she could only offer me flannels???

Everything was excellent except they served the expired flavoured yogurt food. When we informed the lady in kitchen there, she says the date has expired but the food still is good, and didn't remove them. Otherwise, rest all its great here.

I was not informed about the ongoing renovations prior to my arrival. I was offered an upgrade to a suite for $30/night, which I paid because the clerk explained that there was a private bedroom with a door as part of the suite. When I got to my room, it was simply a larger room, no private bedroom. Due to the room recently being renovated, there was a strong paint smell in the room. They didn't change the front door to the room and there was a large gap at the bottom allowing light and hallway noise to come through. There was no place in the bathroom for me to place my towel while I showered. I felt like complaining to the front desk, but was simply too tired to try to do anything about it. I was there for two nights and just needed a place to shower and sleep. I got just that.
