Above and beyond.

From the time I step into the hotel I felt like a resort.It was everything I wanted and more. I was visiting Tampa for the first time to see my dad for the first time is 17 years. The nancy and the over night staff and the breakfast staff went above and beyond in every way I am so thankful to have stayed.

The Oasis was nicely renovated and up kept. The rooms upon check in were clean and tidy. The pool was great. I chose this hotel because of its proximity to Busch Gardens. There are plenty of restaurants driving distance. The only con is 2 of the days my room wasn’t cleaned, Only towels replaced. The 3rd night my room was cleaned (Must have been a different housekeeper). Overall my stay here was great!

Everything was as expected with a quick check in and good location for Busch Gardens. Clean and updated room from previous visit. Only let down was the poor choice at breakfast and very slow replacement of food with some not replaced at all.

Average at best

AC does not work well. Room was very damp and did not cool down enough to be comfortable. Advertised as non smoking but passed by a few people smoking weed in the walkways.

We were there as we needed a place close to Moffit cancer center. First couple of days had little problems with air conditioners but we moved twice and they were ver understanding of the problem. Our third room was the charm. Could not complain about this room. Area is beautiful, pool seating areas and free continental breakfast. When they finish and add the bar and restaurant it will top off everything they have. It will be fantastic. Hopefully I will get to enjoy it again but for vacation. Very convenient near Busch gardens zoo many thing in area to do!
