Called to advise hotel of late arrival (4 AM) secondary to an almost 4 hour flight delay. We requested a late departure and were told it was a firm, no later than 1 company policy. When I told the representative that this time might be difficult as we were traveling with small children, TJ rudely informed me that this was company policy and "would I like to cancel?". Where were we to go??? "Company policy" is a cop-out comment for we are not interested in being helpful and we don't need your business. They won't be getting mine in the future and should not get yours. This is my "policy". PS. When a room is rented to 4 people, you may want to put 4 towels in the room to accommodate and...clean the diarrhea off the toilet.
Every time I have stayed here, I have been pleased with all aspects. I lived in the neighborhood many years prior to these stays. Holiday Inn aways strives to be excellent!
Hotel is in a great location. Hotel staff friendly and accommodating. I was in area for business.
Room was OK but air conditioners are outdated. Bathtub faucet was loose and did not function well.
This was close to the people that I was visiting and close to the highway. Clean and nice. I'll use it again
The customer service rep Drew and other desk personnel gave Excellent Service. The great service was not only at the front desk but throughout the hotel it was also with the wonderful housekeeping STAFF!! The hotel smelled and looked good from the lobby to the actual room. The rooms were well stocked and cleaned. It had options for pillows standard and then Firm. The Firm pillows enhanced my sleeping, The hotel is close to other shopping areas and is next to a Cracker Barrel. It was a great stay and I would recomend to others.
This was a great location. The interstate was right there which was nice. It was close to everything only took us 15 min or less to the events we needed.
It was great experience. very quite, very clean and the staff was outstanding we would go back.
The hotel is clean and its location is a midpoint between tampa and clearwater. We like to cut commute as much as we can and the price here is reasonable and even includes free breakfast.
I was very pleased with its' cleanliness and the people at the front desk, whom went out of their way to please you and there was one in particular! I believe his name was Jonas? Something to that?! Anyway he helped me in any way that he could on the Day Shift! And really cared! it was obvious that HE had worked somewhere else before and had some experience! Kind, gentle, and vey complimentary! Had everything it took to be a Manager or more......... He DID say that he worked at the Hilton before and a few other hotels? Sorry but cannot rememeber his name? Not at this moment! But, the hotel refused, maid) to give out any washcloths, which IS a very simple thing! She acted as if I was going to steal them but I do need a lot being a female, plus! Denied me, hispanic in origin, about three times! Than, water pressure IS a large problem there and one reason that I would NOT return. The showerheads ARE VERY OLD! Older than I am! There was not enough waterpressure for me to get the shmapoo out of my hair without a LONG delay! To me, that is unexcusable! Old water or shower heads no one can fix unless they are replaced! Ridiculous! If it had not been for "Josh" (!) (yep that is his name), I would have left that hotel due to the water pressure! Cheap if you or one cannot replace! Very BAD! but Kosh was so nice that I DID stay, and HE, and only he made the trip a sucess! Will NOT return if water pressure is not replaced or showerheads BUT, JOSH was a gentleman and went out of his way to HELP me, directions, gasoline, cellphone, etc, and it all goes on! Excellent employee and deserves a raise as the other were not quite maybe as "expereinced"? He is an ASSET to your chain and deserves a raise! Has the personality that makes one want to keep going back to THAT particular hotel! And it WAS clean! I loved that! Walls are thin and stayed though, awake, as couple next door KEPT fighting and the other was snoring??!! No insullation??!! Sad there also! Needs improvements to become a Hotel I would stay again, EXCEPT that "Josh" does WORK there! And that would be the only reason I know that I would return there, other than the cleaning! And neatness! It was superb! Absolutely! Showerheads and insulation needed most of all! Ridiculous in this day and time NOT to have it covered! Sincerely, Kathleen Wilkinson Virginia
courteous staff, clean room, convenient location, poor tv cable service, nice pool,good breakfast
Hotel was clean and comfortable.. Rooms were great, and well laid out... Staff was very courteous and informative, and allowed me to switch rooms with no problems due to a small mechanical problem. Even though the hotel location was great, and was only a few miles from the ballpark, the free shuttle to / from the game was offered by the hotel and well worth the effort.. Definitely worth the value.!!!
My partner and I needed a place near to my stepmother's home, and we wanted a clean and comfortable room. This one did not disappoint. There were options of firm or soft bed pillows, a continental breakfast, and a 24-hour fitness room (which we used). The service was excellent; we were always greeted by a friendly desk clerk when we entered the main door.
the hotel was very clean, the staff were extremely helpful and friendly....and the continental breakfast buffet was great....I would stay there again and would recommend it to others....l
Place was comfortable . Good breakfast. Had to make two trips to front dest because remote batteries were dead in TV remote. Had to have an attendant come yup to reset A?C breakers. Worked well after that
The hotel was very clean and the staff were genuinely friendly and helpful. The breakfasts were quite good most morning. I found the room comfortable and the bed and bedding excellent. The TV is outdated but worked fairly good. Pool is small but serves the purpose for a dip.
The service at this location was excellent. The servicemen were energetic, positive, and extremely helpful. I would definitely return if given the opportunity. I booked this hotel for one day due to an interview. My only dislike was the smell of the room initially, which may have been the result of poor circulation.
Visiting family and wanted to stay nearby. Very clean and nicely appointed room; nothing out of place and everything had a place - right down to the microwave & fridge cabinet.
Large enough room w/microwave and fridge which both came in handy. Also great selection for continental breakfast. Location was directly across from 275 on-ramp. Water pressure was absolutely terrible in the shower. Almost made taking one pointless. Water pressure in the toilet was intense and loud in the middle of the night. Free breakfast and USA Today paper daily. Few channels on the small TV was a minus.
Everyone is very friendly and the rooms are really nice (for the price). Location is great...right off 275 with easy access to both Tampa and St. Peteersburg.
