Great place to stay before a cruise. They have a shuttle to the cruise port. Everyone was very friendly. Nice breakfast variety, shopping within walking distance. Several options for dinner either walking or a short Uber ride. I would definitely stay there again.

Unclean and unprofessional - stay away

This hotel was extremely unprofessional and very misleading in the pictures. Me and my best friend arrived here yesterday and we decided to check in and once we got into the room, we realize how dirty it was and how moldy it smelt. The beds had hair that almost look like pubic hair, and the sheets had stain on them, which clearly tells you that this room was not even cleaned. The bathroom sink had specs and little pieces of dirt as well, and the bathtub had hair in it. Upon removing the first layer of bed sheet, there were more stains and hair. At this point, me and my girlfriend decided to leave and we went to the front desk to get the reservation cancelled and to get our refund. They would not give us a reservation and on top of that when I tried contacting the property again through hotels.com, the manager himself was very adamant about not giving a refund because it was their “policy”. Anybody that see this review please stay away from this hotel because we also saw a couple of people that were shady looking sitting in the parking lot and smoking. The neighborhood is not all that great. We were also informed that there is a security guard that he does not play which makes me assume that there is always disturbance in this hotel.

😷 front desk

When we arrived, the front desk girl working that day did not greet us friendly. I guest she was sick that day and feels terrible. The first room they assigned smelled like cigarrsmoked. I called the front desk to change the room and the same girl who checked us in was not apologetic and just told me she'll send someone up. Then when i asked for more towels, they did not Send new towels. When i asked for pool towels, they ran out. Overall stay is a 2.

I'm a little surprised that this property got so many good reviews. I would be remiss if I did not mention the lovely lady who serves the breakfast, she was working very hard to be sure people were cared for and she is very friendly and kind. But I will look around before I book here again. You're right on Dale Mabry, lots of traffic and noise, street people all around, the door to your room opens to the street so there is some concern for your safety, it's an older, smaller building. I couldn't connect to the Internet, and when I tried to call the desk for help, the phone in my room didn't work. Water pressure in the shower was dreadful, older bed that squeaked, pillows were small and stiff, towels were old and thin and coarse. I was only there for one night and got through it, but I will see if I can't do better next time.

Rude Receptionist

Terrible customer service. Called day before arrival to schedule airport shuttle and was told they stopped the service the same day as my arrival. I booked in May and they announced in July the shuttle service was terminated August 1st. Contacted hotels.com about it and they contacted quality inn letting them know they needed to honor it. Hotels.com assured me I would be picked up from the airport on the 1st. Contacted quality inn to schedule and they told me again I would not be picked up when I informed the receptionist about hotels.com she became very rude and told me I needed to call back later to talk to the manager. I called multiple times the following day to be told the manager was too busy to talk to me. The final call I insisted he get in the phone. I told him I would happily Uber myself to the hotel if he could comp the shuttle to the cruise port the following morning he said it was not possible. He would pay for my Uber but he hung up without getting any details. I Ubered myself to the hotel from the airport and the manager told me he would comp me to the cruise port since I did that. Great but why was I told no when I called him. The room AC was not working and the entire hotel just looks so run down and sketchy. I called the front desk but of course no answer had to walk back and let them know. They said a switch on the wall was shut off and it was working. The room cooled off in a few hours. They took us to the port in the morning, I would never stay again.
