One night stay . The room was clean, very spacious with one king size bed .. Although I think 2 queens beds would be more accommodating and still have plenty of space left. The walkway to the room was very hot because of all the AC units but once inside, the room is nice and cool.. The staff were nice and friendly, making check in a breeze..

The housekeeping staff was extremely rude, we asked for towels and were told no by numerous staff members. The room and property were falling apart, the water from the sink smelled like sulfur and the door to the room did not open or close properly.

It was budget friendly, the staff were great overall except for the overbearing breakfast attendant, breakfast was on the lower end of what I expect but passable, it’s an older property laid out more like a motel and appears they remodeled at some point but they made a poor choice of flooring as the cheap laminate materials they used were all in a state of failing chipping buckling etc., I imagine this was happening in most of the rooms especially on the ground floor with the Tampa heat and humidity and room HVAC usage, pool and area were not the tidiest but that more on the patrons who are less than respectful the pool itself was nice and we’re grateful for it as it was pretty hot during our stay.

The floors in our room were badly warped, with the edges of each board curling upward, so we had to keep our shoes on just to walk across. The room reeked of mildew. There was no noise barrier to the outside. We heard every conversation that was taken place outside of our room. We know we were not the only dissatisfied customer as my husband heard another guest complaining by calling the hotel a \"rat hole.\" Breakfast was terrible—there was no batter for my husband to make a waffle, a heap of undercooked pancakes sat in the pancake maker, the bacon was burnt to a crisp, and the sausage was rubbery. We ended up leaving to find a real breakfast. This was our first time staying at a La Quinta, and it will be our last. Wyndham really needs to step in and properly manage these properties.

The room was 182 and 183 and they were nasty. The floor was falling apart in 182 and the corners of the room were dirty. I cut my foot on the floor within the first hour and wore shoes the rest of the time. The breakfast was beyond disgusting and the pancake machine spit out the nastiest looking paper thin pancakes that was ever created. The sausage looked 3 days old and the bacon was dehydrated to almost powder. The front desk reps were rude and did not listen to anything you were saying. And they charge for dogs, regardless of what is posted on hotels.com. Most LaQuinta Inns are not bad but this one is a 3 out of 10. Hire some people that actually care, not oxygen thieves.

Hotel is right next to Busch gardens which is a huge plus if you are going there! We picked up our keys and went to our room, in which the window was facing a hallway wall in a dark corner. No problem, we weren’t there for the views, we were there to just have a place to crash for two nights. Hotel was full of smokers outside.

The strangest part was breakfast. My sister and I went down for the free breakfast, which was incredibly mid. Cereal, bagels, toast, yogurt, coffee and juice machines. We were talking, and I went to use the pancake maker, where you push a button and it makes pancakes. The tray was stacked under the dispenser, I thought maybe it had a bug. I pushed the button and waited with my plate under the dispenser but above the ice cold pancakes below it. My sister was telling me a story and put her hand on the waffle maker for two seconds, when out of nowhere, the breakfast police, the employee overseeing breakfast, instantly appeared and snapped at her, saying “WE’RE NOT MAKING WAFFLES TODAY”. My sister responded she was aware, and the employee then saw I was making my own pancakes. She came over, repeating that she “already made a stack and to grab from the tray”.

Now… why would you waste pancake mix by letting them get cold on a tray and sitting out in the open when you can just let people…. Push a button to make fresh pancakes? This employee hounded us so much that we just let and went elsewhere for breakfast. Anyway, won’t be back but it wasn’t the worst.

The first room we went to had buckled floors and chunks missing out of the vinyl floor. The second room we were given had filthy floors but I will say that the linens were fresh and clean. Most of the staff was friendly. The maid was non English speaking and came at 10:15 while I was trying to get all my children ready for a day at Busch gardens. When I told her we were leaving shortly, she had left. When we came back home at 8p.m. From the park, our room was just as we left it and the staff never freshened anything up nor made the beds. Breakfast was sub-par with no availability to the waffle machine and the pancakes were raw when they came out of the conveyer belt. This property should be advertised as 420 friendly as the fumes in the hallways were ghastly at all times and not conducive for a family friendly visit. It cost me over $500 for two nights and I don’t feel that the property reflects its value for what it cost.

I really debated whether to rate this hotel a 2 or a 3. It wasn't horrible, but I decided that I plan on never staying there again -- so I settled on a 2.

The staff that I interacted with were fantastic. Both the man at the front desk and the woman inside the breakfast area were very professional and welcoming.

The breakfast was fine. There was a good variety of items.

It also appears that the room has a fresh coat of paint and newer flooring. Besides a spitball on the bottom of the wall and a baseball-sized stain on the comforter, the room seemed clean.

The surrounding area does not feel safe -- but there is a police station nearby.

There were some maintenance issues. There were rolled up towels outside the room next to our AC unit. The wall thermostat didn't work. The only soap by the sink was in a bottle labeled \"shampoo\". Also, our bathroom door did not shut easily; it took a little effort to make it shut all the way. But the thing that concerned me the most: our room door wasn't flush with the frame when it shut. We didn't notice until we went to bed, turned out all the lights, and saw quite a bit of light coming through the bottom right of the door. It was definitely wide enough for roaches to come through (although we didn't see any). Another guest at the hotel stood outside our room early in the morning to smoke a cigarette, and we smelled the smoke in our room.

Hopefully the hotel will work a little harder on maintenance. Again, the staff were great.
