People live there and it is outdoor. Main stairwell smells like urine and you don’t get a refund for checking out early. There were roaches in the bath tub and roach droppings in the corners. The toilet was filthy and so were the refrigerator and microwave. There were dead roaches in the fridge and freezer. Do not stay here. I got a room in the Holiday Inn next door because the conditions were so poor

Don’t select Tampa Inn

The property was dirty and there is a broken down bus in the parking lot. This property had numerous groups of people hanging around smoking and drinking, broken down vehicles and people were letting their dogs defecate on the lawn by the pool and leave it behind. We did not feel safe and did not even want to check out the rooms. Typically we have never had any issues with a property sponsored by hotels.com but this one is a minus, and will make me investigate further any other time I use hotels.com for hotel services.

The property is located in a high crime area. The rooms are dirty. The sheets and bedspreads are old and scratchy. There was a lot of activity late into the night outside in the parking lot. I can’t believe Expedia does not check these places out.

Literally the worst hotel I’ve stayed at – ever. Filthy, chair had like 50 questionable stains. Dirty floor. Terrible smell/ odor. Hole in bathroom ceiling, from which mouse droppings covered the bathroom floor. Molding all chewed away by rats and left unrepaired. Could hear either mice or cockroaches scurrying all night. No shades on 3 lamps, one of which sputtered like morse code until we shut it off. Bathroom sink full of shaving hairs – room had not been cleaned. 3 doors down from about 25 teenagers and a literal wall of drug haze emitting from it. I cannot believe Expedia has this as a “recommended” result – literally should be shut down by board of health. Disgusting, I cleaned, unsafe. Do not stay here.

The hotel was not in the best condition. For the price it felt like a rip off even with it being across from the theme parks. There were roaches, the room wasn’t clean. My husband had to buy bleach and sanitizer spray and clean up himself. My family and I were very uncomfortable and unhappy with the stay. We will most definitely make sure to not go back.
