“Close to Busch Gardens with free shuttle and Complimentary Breakfast!”

Our family recently stayed at this hotel and selected it based upon Tripadvisor reviews, its proximity to Busch gardens, the pool (albeit small and chilly) and the free breakfast (a definite bonus for a family). We usually stay at Holiday Inn Expresses when we travel and have found some to be better than others. The hotel room we had was... More

Hello! Thank you for your review. It was very detailed, and I love that you mentioned Rolando! He gives all our guests fantastic service. I have to agree with you about the pizza. We do everything possible to keep them from slipping the menus under the doors. They are very sneaky on when and how they do this. We hope... More

“Great stay!!!”

Reviewed 8 April 2013

We stayed there for two nights without any complaint. The suite was very comfortable and clean. The staff was very attentive, especially the staff from the restaurant during breakfast. The hotel was very centric, it was close to Bush Gardens, USF and Moffit Cancer Center. If I need to stay in the area, I will definitely stay here again!
