Quality Inn & Suites Tampa near Fairgrounds and Casino

The rooms were clean but the flooring in our room has pieces missing so I did catch my shoe on it . Outside grounds by the pool very nice, pool clean. Continental bkft included waffle, bagels, small danish, juice, cereal/milk. There is a small exercise room and a laundry room, $2 for a wash and $2 for a dryer. Check in desk open ,24 hrs and sells some snacks and ice cream . Hotel is close to Tampa Port and 15 mins from Tampa airport, there is a shuttle. Plenty of restaurants and fast food in the area. On a bad note, the hotel could use new carpets and better flushing toilets! Carpet in hallways has bad stains on it. Hallways often smell of Marijuana. Hotel area has a lot of homeless people in the area but they didn't approach my friend or myself for anything. The hotel's staff are quite friendly. Smokers have shaded areas for smoking in the back area near the pool. Towels are available at the pool if needed.

Inside the hotel room was not horrible. There was issues with the door safety locks, the water pressure was mediocre, and the mini fridge did not get cold at all but the air conditioner worked fantastic! coming back from the day the room smelled strongly of cigarettes and the pool never had clean towels other than that, no issues with the hotel itself The area the hotel was in did not feel safe but that was not the hotels fault itself! The staff was very nice and welcoming!

Note that if you request a accessible room you will probably get a tall bathtub with handrails. Very difficult to use with bad knee & or back. Bed was very uncomfortable but room was clean.

Comfy

Property was overall clean and staff was super friendly and helpful! Only thing is a lot of homeless people in the area
