Best Western Tampa

The check in was flawless as usually, Mrs. Shalini always provides my two requested bottles of water. However, during this stay in my room the AC unit was making a loud sound. this was not noticed until I arrived in my room a 1am. The following day the manager George Casanova set in motion to exchange out the AC unit and credit my night. the service was quick and clean. In addition the breakfast is always fresh and well prepared. Thanks for the service. less

The staff was so very helpful and sympathetic during a very stressful experience. I was exhausted and worried after my 91 year old father broke his hip in Mexico, and we were flown via a medical evac flight to Tampa for an emergency hip replacement. They definitely helped make this ordeal so much easier! The hotel was very nice, clean, and comfortable too. I was able to sleep well while there, and so was my father after his discharge until we flew home. less

I was pleasantly surprised at the overall appearance of this hotel. The staff from the front desk to housekeeping were very friendly, courteous and welcoming. This made for a very pleasant stay as we were in Tampa for a medical procedure. less

This hotel has some age to it, but the owners have kept up with renovations. It is in a busy area (you will get some traffic noise) with restaurants within walking distance (IHOP next door), but no attractions or view. No other hotels in this vicinity. Breakfast service has been restored and the food, while typical of this type of hotel, was fresh and well stocked. Staff was friendly and helpful. Room and common areas inviting and spotlessly clean. Microwave and fridge in room. Free parking. One unusual plus I noticed was a chair to lower a handicapped guest into the pool. My only con would be that the windows in the room are quite small, comparatively, but the room and bathroom are spacious. Full housekeeping service has not been restored and is only offered every third night, although fresh towels and trash pickup are offered by request. This is not a "resort" hotel, but rather a good place for an overnight stay a bit farther from the airport or an economical option if you need to be in the area. We were visiting family, so we will definitely be back after this first experience. less

Overall this Best Western was clean and staff very friendly. Great value for what is included. Breakfast had good variety. The only negative thing I would say is the fitness room needed some cleaning love. They had no cleaning tools in there so machines couldn’t be wiped down and cleaned properly. It looked like it hadn’t been serviced in a few days as the treadmill had dried sweat marks on it. I took the extra step of finding some cleaning solution and towel to wipe down the equipment. less
