Wonderful location for visiting Busch gardens, Tampa zoo, Ybor and sites Hotel staff were so warm and welcoming Multiple times I went down to the front desk with questions regarding our stay and surrounding areas and they always treated our family so well

Breakfast was very nice and room was very spacious and comfortable Certainly will visit again

Weaver Kristen

I stay in a lot of hotels for work and don’t usually take the time to write anything but this one deserves a couple notesGreat blackout curtain if you plan to take advantage of the noon checkout Also a dividing curtain inside the room if you’re travelling with different sleep schedules

Tables that easily move so you don’t have to use the ironing board as a second deskAnd my husband’s favorite, which sounds silly but: a shelf you can see onto so you’re not worried about leaving things sitting on it!A+ rooms and service, even in the middle of the night Will definitely seek out this chain in my travels from now on

Melissa Cornelius

I always stay at Homes 2 suites any time I travel It is always clean, has a pool, complimentary breakfast and I can bring my small papillon who I cannot board and do not have anywhere else to bring her The hotel makes a stay for business or vacation always feel like home

I’m so grateful to have these hotels and with locations everywhere it’s always my go to choice I was a bit disappointed about the location of this particular hotel because of the loud road noise and the girl that greeted me and checked me in was incredibly rude however, I didn’t see her again at all my entire visit All of the other staff members were incredibly friendly and helpful

This is a really nice place for the price The rooms are very large (like a tiny apartment) and have really nice features such as Microwave, fridge/freezer, cups, silverware, and plates 2 full size beds, couch and dining room table

3 sinks total! Free 2 pretzel snacks and 2 little chocolate was in the kitchen area for newcomers which was quite niceThe bathroom is also very spaciousThe beds are quite comfortable, not hard like many other places They have a slight bounce to themService is pretty good although only available in the morning between 7-10am So if you need anything it needs to be requested during those timesThe main entrance area has a pool table, books and board games to check outIt also had a lot of nice outside activities, pool, pickleball, and shuffleboard, Cornhole etcReally think if you’re in the area you should definitely give this place a shot!

Lourdes Rodriguez

This is a great place to stay I booked 2 rooms The rooms are clean, no bugs, no bedbugs, no carpet so, no bad smell either

Stayed here with my husband & 2 kids for our vacation Price was affordable & staff was very friendly The rooms were a great size with a kitchenette

Dishes and pots/pans were already in the room as well as a fridge Perfect middle spot for getting around the city Pool was a decent size, kids loved it Rooms weren’t cleaned but once in our stay, breakfast was provided but limited, and the snacks that you can be were crazy expensive Overall a nice visit & would definitely stay here again

Angel Olivas

I have stayed at hotels multi star hotels all around the world Japan, Germany, England, and you know what they all lacked?? Personality! My experience here has been lovely, from the front desk lady Mrs Nancy doing everything she to make your stay the best it can be She fixed all my administrative issues with all my reservations

She lives by the service with a smile motto At the same time she jokes with you making you feel like she can be one of my aunties Mrs Dina the lead cleaning lady she and her team of lady’s are always working hard to get every room clean But no matter how busy she will step out and say hello Mrs Isabel thank you for your amazing breakfasts I love the fruits and the simple but good selections of food Keep it up, BTW your coffee is amazing! Thank you for going out of your way to make sure I was able to get breakfast a few mins after you guys stopped service It doesn’t go unnoticed The managers there like Mr Todd De Carlos has fostered and developed a great working team under the guidance of Mr Newton I could have stayed at any hotel for 6 months, including luxury condos You know what those places don’t have?? Personal touch that the staff provide hereMr Angel Olivas

I really enjoyed my stay at Fairfield Inn Everything from the time I entered the building it was all great All of it was well worth me booking my stay with them

Big room and a big bed clean and fresh and bright Bathroom was way bigger than I thought it would be So places give you a great room But the bathroom are a after thought Hugh walk in shower which I love I will definitely staying with you guys my next visit anywhere

Jordan Dyce

If you’re a Marriott Bonvoy member STAY AWAY FROM THIS HOTEL!!! Checked into this hotel today and requested my enhanced upgrade based on platinum bonvoy status Shawn the front desk attendant rudely stated that they don’t upgrade I told him that is not Marriott policy and my status is not based on the price of the room

He again refused saying his manager told him that was the policy at this hotel I called Marriott Bonvoy customer service and had a supervisor call the hotel and explain to them that they were violating Marriott policy They still refused saying that the General Manager created this policy and he is out of town and they won’t go against him Never been treated like this at any Marriott property I filed a complaint with Marriott and advise all elite members to stay away from these rude arrogant people There are many other Marriott properties in Tampa that won’t treat loyal customers like this

Sherree Ward

We love this hotel The people are very nice and helpful with what you need Beds are so comfortable and it’s great for my back, plus we slept great

Rooms are nice and clean Everywhere is quiet except for the lobby They do have a pool there not sure if it’s open we didn’t go swimming while there Hope to go back there if we ever get a chance too

Wonderful location Bed super comfortable Electric locks took some getting used to

But would certainly stay here again When we asked for help they showed up within 20 minutes and we’re very helpful They were easy to reach if any issues happened The full-size fridge was extremely helpful since we were here as part of a wedding party 10/10

Marcia Green

The MarBay Suites is a small, quaint motel with a kitchenette in the room (full-size fridge and microwave) The owners are working hard on updating all units, and it shows The staff is extremely friendly and helpful and the room was clean

We would stay there again! Be sure to check out the beautiful Philippe Park – just a short way down the road

Saiem Novak

The rooms are a great place to lay your head and the laundry is free for all guests However I was surprised to see tiny and medium sized roached and how laxed the owner was about them being in the room While there was negotiations of a refund and an offer of a free room to change our review

The offer was taken when asked to use it The owner is friendly and nice, but don’t expect anything to be done in the right way Other than that I’ll be alright with returning if needed to stay with my own spray to combat the bugs Thank you Mar Bay for the awesome room, it was beautiful and relaxing enough as it is

We stayed for four nights with our travel baseball team – which can be A LOT! The entire staff was very patient and friendly with all of us and our kids The gym was great and the dining and pool areas were as well The room was clean and spacious and the staff was very attentive – especially Nadia

She was very sweet to the kids and families, we all loved her! Thanks so much for making our stay so enjoyable

Nancy Bailey

We had a great stay, especially when we had mentioned we were a family of 5 rooms staying for a funeral, they put us all within 2 doors or just across the hall from each other The hostess for breakfast Nadia, was totally amazing Waking up to her kindness and care she showed to each of us was fabulous

She took the time to greet us and ask for anything we wanted or needed Her individual interest and interaction was above and beyond typical service Nadia each morning would make us mini waffles, and her smile and charm very enlightening We all love you Ms Nadia! 😍

I would rate our stay at the Fairfield Inn & Suites 20 Stars if I could They couldn’t have been any more accommodating! We were able to check-in early, which was awesome We stayed in a junior suite which, was spotless and the bed was ridiculously comfortable

The towels were actually normal sized and so soft The staff, every last one of them, we’re so nice and super helpful And, we got breakfast to boot! Granted, there are a number of less expensive options in the area but, the Fairfield Inn & Suites is proof positive that you get what you pay for!!

Adrienne Crim-mcmorrow

The hotel had a great breakfast and breakfast staff Housekeeping skipped cleaning our room even though we were out for the day, which was a bummer, especially because when the room wasn’t clean visually, the musty smell of the room seemed all the more gross The smell was mostly likely from the AC unit leaking onto the carpet, because I could hear dripping water after it was running for several minutes

Courtney Johnson

It’s a very nice place to stay for families It’s spacious so we weren’t on top of each other, and the fact that everyone had their own bed was a definite plus Although the oven hadn’t been cleaned after the previous renter, having a full kitchen helped us save on food because we were able to cook instead of buying fast food the entire vacation

My only complaint would be the smell of urine near the coach I understand pets are allowed but maybe they should designate a certain floor or maybe certain rooms for people with pets

Dustin Sorensen

Came down on a trip with a booked bnb The bnb got canceled last second and we had nowhere to stay Traci, Lyndon, and David worked thier butts off to get us a place to stay on Memorial Day weekend

The hotel was a little older, but was in the middle of a remodel The room was clean There was plenty of storage to unpack for the week

AMAZING food just around the corner, Thai, Sushi, Poke, and Seafood! The best part of the hotel was the legit fitness center Most just have some dumbbells and a treadmill This gym had enough equipment to do a complete workout! Breakfast in the AM isn’t included, but the staff is so friendly and helpful that I didn’t mind having to pay!

Kayla Larimore

We have stayed here a few times when visiting family The location is great right off of Tampa Road – you can easily get to many local destinations The hotel itself is nice but not too pricey

The kids enjoy the pool and the adults the hot tub We have frequently noticed there are no pool towels and had to ask for more at the front desk No issues with cleanliness or staff Good stay for a family vacation!

Ashley

I have stayed at this location twice and both experiences were great!Mario at the front desk is amazingHe is super friendly and very kind(both times) Definitely an asset to this hotelBreakfast staff are very attentive and helpful also

Jake at the front desk is a great asset to your organization My wife and I checked in at about 6:00 pm on a Thursday with at least three other guests ahead of us on line and at least 2 phone lines ringing Jake handled everything and everyone professionally and courteously

The room was fine although the shade on the door to the balcony needs repair

Robh693 H

Nice, clean hotel Up to date amenities, very large room with kitchenette Hotel is in a beautiful neighborhood and there are 2 very good restaurants in the same plaza

The only thing we didn’t care for was the very soft bed which left us both with sore lower backs, you actually have to struggle to get out of the bed There is no breakfast offered but there is a very good diner in the same plaza

Remember to use ʜoᴛᴇʟʙᴏʟʟʏᴄᴏm when booking any room This site will compare thousands of booking websites and usually will have rooms much cheaper than others! Thank me later on! This resort is one of my favorites in the area

I have been coming here for years If you stay for a few days you won’t be let downStill features one of the most elegant Sunday brunches in the area, although there are no real safety precautions which was a bit disappointing Food is fresh and well -prepared with a wide assortment of breakfast and lunch/dinner fare The buffet includes a free mimosa, unlimited coffee, hot or iced tea and soft drinks

Marcus Miller

As a venue for a wedding, it was a great choice Absolutely incredible dinner service, bar was great, and lighting was well managedFor the hotel/spa, sub-par

Pool is nice, but crowded Limited chairs and towels Charges for spa were supposed to be waived for wedding, but wouldn’t remove a small $32 charge because it was booked through a third party Not a big deal, but more of the principal of the matter Room service was running behind for a morning breakfast (scheduled) 21% gratuity is automatic and the price on the menu didn’t match the price on the bill Very unfortunate considering a gratuity is linked to serviceThe entire hotel needs a coat of paint and a pressure wash outside Multiple parts of the hotel either smelled of mildew or bleach The room was clean and well stocked, but the towels were rough The furniture could definitely use an upgradeRecommendation for management/owners, whoever is the hospitality manager for the venue/wedding operations should be put in charge of all the others operations as well Perhaps they would bring the service level up and we’d stay again

Chris Camerlengo

Went for spring break with my son to catch Yankee spring training A relative set us up with a 2 night stay From check in to check out was nice place

Could use better water pressure and room updates But beds were comfortable Food at hotel was solid And the surrounding areas have places to eat Was a too short trip He will return with friends next year

Jonathan Shepherd

Hotel is good location if you’re needing to be by the airport but a bit run down Smelled of mold and visible mold in the lobby (and air ducts) Hallways were extremely warm and AC in room could not keep up

Faucet in room was also loose, to the point of falling over Only stayed one night and four times within an hour, housekeeping knocked on the door, tried to enter the room, and called the room asking when we were leaving This was all after they tried to enter at 9am (without knocking) and we told them we had already gotten late check out (noon) Obviously we felt rushed out Additionally, breakfast was supposed to be included in our reservation but we were told it was not We were also double charged for parking (once on room bill and again at the pay station) Pool was nice with view of the bay but unfortunately industrial exhaust fans blow right next to the cafe/pool so it’s extremely loud Made it impossible to enjoy the pool/bar/view Only bright spot was that check in process was easy Absolutely would not return

Glasco Martin

Choice this location despite the many negative reviews, hoping that they ( reviewers) were somehow in the older section of the hotel and just had a bad experience It would only be for 1 night before moving downtown to the Embassy Suites Driving up, you can quickly see that there is nothing near the hotel as far as restaurants or activity

It looks like you’re driving through an office park Upon driving further you can see that the location is beautifully situated on the river That’s where the good stuff ends This hotel looks dated from the exterior, and it gets worse once you enter The lobby area is sad,dirty and dated The desk clerk seemed to be put out by me checking in There was no line whatsoever But she appeared to change her tune after finding out that I was a Hilton diamond member She immediately upgraded us to a room with a sunset view I felt hopeful that my wife would somehow be okay with my hotel pick I should have stopped here because the lobby had that old smell to it After getting the luggage and heading inside to our room, I could see the sour look on her face After getting into a dirty elevator, the look got worse Upon reaching our floor we were greeted by a dark hallway and dingy carpeting We had to weave our way around the two housekeeping carts to get to our doormind youthis is probably 6pm Upon getting inside the room, we immediately knew we couldn’t stay It was dark, old, dated and smelled musty We didn’t touch anything and immediately went down stairs to checkout and request our Hilton points back It took us an hour or two to find somewhere to lay our heads that night We ended up at a very nice Marriott property a few miles away No issues thankfully

Melinda Yu

Front desk and housekeeping ONLY-were friendly and helpful Parking was easy-pool was nice-beautiful view Now the reason for 2 stars-pool bar service were complete losers

Didn’t know to make a simple margarita! Not quick to serve and huge worthless attitude Any shift-any day Drinks were way overpriced Cafe breakfast was par however-the staff was marginal at best I spilled orange juice all over the table and floor accidentally-and I was the one who cleaned it up after three attempts to get staff help -then he finally came out with a dry hand towel and lightly brushed over the floor-the sticky table got nothing!! Lunch n dinner menu was marginal and the food was horrible with “can’t be bothered” service A complete joke for a restaurant The room-beds uncomfortable and the noise of the a/c was extremely loud The carpet was soaking wet in one corner: the solution was to bring a giant fan? That sounded like we were in an airport hanger cranking up a jet engine Why they couldn’t have moved us is beyond me The soap in the packaged supplies was like a plastic disc that never lathered up -I wasn’t sure if I was getting soap or not when I washed my hands

The hotel needs updating It probably was very nice at one time The bathrooms are great, the meeting rooms were great (I was there for a conference) and the food was excellent

We did not buy the breakfast there because it was very overpriced The beach is a bit dirty but still enjoyed sitting by it I don’t mean dirty like trash, I mean dirty like it looks like lake water The temperature inside our room was hot The unit showed 65 but it was prob closer to 80 We sweat at night the last night I read other reviews where they had the same issue They don’t have a fridge or microwave but you can get a fridge if they have a spare one and you ask I found that weird It is 2022, hot outside, and the price suggest at least this amenity Would I stay again, absolutely if work is paying I would personally prob get a different hotel if I were choosing But it was still a good stay and I’m not opposed to returningPlease put some money into updates and this place will be worth the visit

My first impression of the hotel was not shocking It is not a luxury hotel but the reception was excellent, the entry process was fast and very good cleanliness in the main Lobby area The elevators are in very good condition and when you arrive at the room very good impression, very spacious, good view of the bay, good temperature and good smell, the best thing about the room is the bathroom, super spacious and comfortable

The only downside is that it doesn’t have a refrigerator but nothing so necessary for usMy Joe Google Rate is: 95%

When I booked, I was told I could check in early for $50 on the phone I had a surgery that morning When I arrived they charged me for and entire extra day for checking in early

When I did check in I was not given a parking pass and the parking person outside wasn’t there Finally he showed up and told us to just go in the garage THEN, I went to the room and it was the wrong room We had to walk all the way back to front desk and sit and wait for him to finally find the room that I booked THEN, before surgery I am required to take a shower, the shower is broken there is only one temperature, hell fire I tried every angle to take a shower and it wouldn’t even shoot out cold water, only hot Called the front desk they said there was nothing they could do So I had to basically burn my skin to shower before my surgery I was supposed to be sleeping before At this time I hadn’t had any sleep yet Also the pillows were rock hard They advertised room service for food and none of that was included I paid $700 for a day and a half and I would never go there again Also the carpets were filthy in the room and in the halls

Great resort for a family with kids although the rooms are a little on the older side All the people are very friendly and professional You’ve got tennis, golf, and several small pools with an overall relaxing environment

There’s a driving range next to the main clubhouse by the South course We played South, Island and Copperhead courses – and the club services team moves your equipment around to each course ahead of time Super efficient!

Ursula Cunningham

This place was spectacular!!! I didn’t get to enjoy the 6 pools, nor golfing but we will be going back in October The room was very nice, it was like home away from home We had a kitchen, living area, nice room and the bathroom was very nice as well

Going back to the kitchen, it had all the appliances and dishware needed to cook I thank God for my husband, for picking out a wonderful place for the second part of our vacation! ❤️❤️❤️

I loved the condo I stayed in Great WI-FI, beautiful property As an Airbnb renter, I feel like there is no respect shown to visitors who spend thousands over their stay

I felt like a prisoner in my very expensive rental Innisbrook would benefit from issuing a pool pass for guests, especially those who spend over $100 at a restaurant built right next to the pool Perhaps a lower membership package, temporary, allows pool(s) or pool Honestly you are accosted if you go in the pool as a renter and are forced to exit It is scary I spent 8 days inside taking occasional walks and ordering in I came to watch golf and go in the pool, considering there are several Are no pools for guests? ugh Sorry I feel like I wasted money that could have been avoided had management addressed the concerns of several guests who posted prior I am not spending thousands of dollars to take a dip It is ludicrous

For the price the hotel was great The customer service was good Whenever we requested something from the front desk, the staff would call your room to confirm you received what you needed

I loved having a laundry room that you could use a debit/credit card for and not have to worry about getting cash The view is amazing, we had the bay side view The room is spacious and it was convenient to have a full size kitchen and bedroom that is separate and private from the living room area We love the ability to go for a swim at 7am while having a drink at the pool The grills were a plus as wellI gave 4 stars for several reasons but mainly due to the room not being cleaned very well I did address this with the front staff and they sent someone to clean the area we were the most unhappy with The pool towels are limited so I would recommend bringing your own The room could definitely use some updating and we were a little disappointed because the pictures shown on their website looked betterRecommendations for the hotel is to put larger trash cans in the kitchen, add brooms/ mops in the rooms (Especially because we stayed 8 nights), make sure enough toiletries are provided based on the length of stay, purchase more linens, and update the rooms (The tub had peeling paint, furniture outdated and beat up, and cracked flooring)Overall we enjoyed our stay and would return

Overall loved everything about this place!! Atmosphere is great Much quieter than expected Being on the 3rd floor we heard no one above or below us

The pull out couch was very comfortable, happily surprised Our only real complaint, and it’s gross Actual dirty dishes were in the cupboard Easy fix we just washed anything and everything before we used it

Went for a weekend getaway for sun, a pool and water view This place did all that The grounds are beautiful and well kept

The poolside restaurant had super hardworking and friendly staff; food and drinks were great Pool area was small and could use more chairs as they are filled up really early The hotel itself is outdated but clean overall and had everything we needed We did request toilet paper and towels twice and never received them, but when our TV broke a maintenance worker showed up very quickly Unfortunately the free shuttle bus is very unreliable; upon arrival after waiting an hour and half at the airport we took a cab And upon departure we reserved it for 10am and it was about 40 minutes late, which caused a panic as we had a flight to make Over this is a great place for quick stay for some sun and fun!

My partner and I came to stay for one night and I can honestly say The Haya is officially one of my favorite hotels to visit in Tampa The hotel is decorated beautifully and it is very clean with friendly staff The hotel is perfect for adults/couples

I didn’t hear any screaming kids which was perfect We went to Flor Fina the restaurant inside the hotel and it has this beautiful ceiling art piece in addition to the lightning and delicious food The restaurant has a smaller menu but trust me what they serve is made with care and lots of flavorTransportation is easy to find because there was the trolley train station near by and it’s free to rideThe hotel is a must visit

Lovely boutique hotel complemented by excellent staff and service as well as a fantastic restaurant and bar While not overly luxurious, the modern styled room was clean, the bed was comfortable and the shower was fine Our room overlooking the pool was quiet

The location was perfect for exploring Ybor and the surrounding areasThe MVP here is the staff From valet and front desk to waitstaff and housekeeping, the Hotel Haya employees were consistently professional, helpful and personable

william harwell

We recently stayed for two nights while in Tampa The hotel staff is wonderful!!! The hotel is exceptional!!!! The beds are pillow soft and the room is immaculate The coffee shop staff and menu offerings will not disappoint

The pool is resort quality The restaurant is four star! Once in, you’ll find it hard to exit the beautiful marble lined showers The water pressure soothes aching muscles All this for reasonable prices I can’t wait to return Thanks to all the hard working staff!!!!!!

Stayed 2 weeks at this hotel and it didn’t disappoint me at all Place is clean, breakfast is decent (I make my own egg and cheese burrito, maybe they can add sour cream next time), love the fireplace at night to keep you warm, reception is very friendly except for one Would be nice if a certain receptionist understands the hospitality work she’s in, a receptionist is the first person that greets you very time you drop by the front desk

She seems to be not happy with her job Asked her if she’s okay one day as she’s got this long face all the time and her response is she’s tired Aren’t we all? I like approaching Jessica and Karen as they always have that welcoming smile on their faces and interacts with the guests when needed, highly commendable Julie their manager is phenomenal I can’t count how many I asked her to change the way my billing is done and she did with patience Would I go back to this place again or recommend it to friends and families? ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY!

Great experience a newer property, solid friendly service, however it was the properties breakfast that won me over The people working the breakfast area always smiling, always offering to help, made me smile to start my day Breakfast choices were excellent and in an age where many places using covid as the reason they cut back, this was one of the best

I enjoyed my breakfast Well done!

Was there for two nights last weekend for a fan fest Blown away by the cleanliness and friendly staff Room was EXQUISITE

I’ve never stayed in a room with a full kitchen before, including fridge, oven, and DISHWASHER As you can tell, I don’t travel much, and even when I do, I usually stay at a cheaper motel Continentalbreakfast was biscuits and gravy, eggs, and delicious breakfast sandwiches, as well as oatmeal, bagels, etc Giving it the Dave Meltzer Kenny Omega In The Egg Dome SEVEN STARS

Hotel location is great and in a safe clean area Staff were very pleasant and everyone had exceptional customer service For the those things mentioned I would give 5 stars

However, for a Hilton and a hotel in this sort of area I would expect a little better quality of beds We had two different beds, one of which was terrible The carpet was a little dirty with noticeable areas, we just wore our shoes Room was a little musty so for this reason I have given 3 stars The comfort level after long days is what matters and we did not receive the level we had expected

Gangaram H

Great place to stay, was there for four nights, great location right next to the airport, super customer service You would have done good deed if you got Marcel to assist you in front desk Clean rooms, very good free internet speed, had a great bar and Starbucks counter too

Pool was great and so was their in house food Will definitely recommend and stay again if I visit Tampa
