*Hotel was conveniently located to the cruise terminal with a free shuttle included on the morning of our cruise. *Hotel is conveniently located to the free trolley that can take you to Ybor City (eat at the Columbia- so good!) or downtown. *Breakfast gets VERY crowded in the last hour that it is open. Be sure to go early if you don't want to stand in the line that can extend back to the elevators. *Staff are all very friendly, helpful, and accomodating. *Nice 6th floor pool. *Would recommend to anyone sailing out of the Tampa port.

“Good Cruise Hotel”

Located in a nice section of town. Very walkable to the cruise port. Across the street from CVS which is convenient for those last minute purchases. Clean & well appointed rooms.

“Okay for one night, I wouldn't want to stay longer.”

I'd just recommend it, because it wasn't completely bad, but we'd still choose a different hotel next time. The room, especially the bathroom, was shockingly poorly cleaned.

I'd just recommend it, because it wasn't completely bad, but we'd still choose a different hotel next time. The room, especially the bathroom, was shockingly poorly cleaned. However, it was very large and well-equipped. The TV and basic amenities were fine. Wi-Fi was only available if you were a Hilton Members member, the only time on our trip where you had to become a member to get free Wi-Fi. We had been members before, so it wasn't a problem for us, but I still find it very odd. We had a corner room facing a busy street, so it was actually very noisy the whole time. Breakfast was okay, classic American style. There was little fruit, no vegetables, and no cheese, but that's normal in such hotels. Basically, the American breakfast is the same everywhere: egg dishes, waffles or pancakes, bagels, and toast. It's a "cruise-to-go" hotel, meaning most of the hotel guests are there for the night before going on a cruise, or are just returning from one. As a result, the lobby and hallways are always very busy, and everyone is (understandably) nervous. The reception staff sometimes seemed overwhelmed by the sheer number of people. Nevertheless, they tried to get everything done as best as possible, and when there were no cruise guests (which was rare), the atmosphere was more relaxed. The fitness center and pool were very good, the pool water was pleasant, and the location on the 6th floor was very nice with a great view. The location itself is very good, with many things within walking distance. Many people arrive by shuttle bus; we arrived by car. Parking costs €35, but it was very easy to find a spot.
