I'm used to go to the IHG hotels and in particular the Holiday Inn Express. The only thing I missed was some good orange juice in the morning at the breakfast. For the rest, it was as good as any Holyday Inn Express I've been to. Super clean, nice looking exterior, nice looking room, very comfortable pillows, very comfortable bed, Iron worked super fine, alarm clock worked fine, electrical outlets were working, both the bath and the sink in the bathroom were draining fine. Plenty of towels in the room at my arrival, I had full control on A/C and it was powerful enough to keep my room cool. A/C was working super well at the fitness center too. Nice 5-50 pounds dumbel set, nice threadmill. No bad smell detected. Breafast was ready first hour. Staff was friendly. Plenty of parking. Keys worked no problem during my stay. I checked in late and was dying for a glass of milk before going to bed and the staff opened the breakfast fridge for me free of any charge. I did not want to leave. You could think of a cable pulley rack for the fitness center. That would help. Thank you.

Room was very dirty and there was a wet, dirty washcloth from the previous guest in the shower along with hair on the counter and in the sink in the bathroom. Floors weren’t mopped and there were food and liquid spill stains all over.

The bathroom had hair all over it. My husband called front desk and asked for housekeeping to clean the bathroom again. We decided to leave the hotel and to a little sightseeing. 2 hours later the white hair that was on the toilet was now the sink. I want to the front desk (myself) told them about the bathroom again and the white hair. We left again so we can get something to dinner and stop at Walmart for some cleaning supplies. When we arrived back to the room the bathroom STILL had hair and a cute bath towel on the tub. 😒 (I cleaned the bathroom myself) I was not about to call or go back to the front desk again for a we are sorry and we will get someone to you room. They had three different times to get it right. Before we checked in, when my husband called and when I want to the front desks.

The staff was extremely professional and courteous. The lady who checked me out took her time and broke down how the rewards point system worked, which was very helpful. The location is perfect for those that want to stay in Tampa and not be around all of the hustle and bustle of a big city. It’s kind of hidden off of the main road, but is close to alot of restaurants and shopping places. I will definitely stay here again when I’m back in town. However, I must note that my toilet kept running all day until I adjusted the leveler, and there were some yello stains on one of the bedsheets. Luckily I had two beds, so I slept in the other one haha. Other than that, it’s a great stay for a peaceful environment.

This was one of the worst stays I have had at a hotel in many years. Air Conditioning was very loud, had to switch rooms once, TV service didn't work consistently in either room. Internet was out, which wasn't their fault, but still added to things. Also, they were working on the roof adding a lot of noise and no apparent compensation for any of it. Staff was ok and breakfast, including coffee, was good. That is the only good thing really.
