Bathroom had a sliding barn door that did not provide privacy. Breakfast ended at 9:00 am and several items were running out. Hotel staff were friendly and room was clean, but had more of a motel feel.

One week stay.

Nice place for price. A little dated but bathroom updated. Had a small kitchenette which was nice for our 1 week stay. Cental and easy to airport. Only complaint was that our room did not get cleaned until 5 pm when we were trying to get ready for dinner. Nice well kept pool. Breakfast was pretty ok with enough variety and morning breakfast custodian was quick and efficient and friendly. All in all we were happy with our stay.

The staff at Hotel South Tampa and Suites are absolutely amazing. They go above and beyond and are the friendliest I've encountered in quite some time. We were also able to leave our vehicle on the premises for 5 days while we went on a cruise and the fee was beyond reasonable. The continental breakfast was substantial and the dining area was so clean. Highly recommend!

The property looked just as good in person as it does in the pictures and every staff member we met was great! We booked again for the last night of our trip too. It's close enough to TPA too.
