The Neighborhood:

Suburban residential streets blend with a bit of urban charm in Tampa Palms, a pristine neighborhood just 14 miles northeast of Tampa, Florida. A short drive separates you from exploring the Florida Aquarium, dining at famous restaurants, and enjoying riverfront views at Tampa Riverwalk! Though Tampa Palms’ wooded streets give it a suburban look, the numerous apartment complexes, restaurants, shops, hospitals, and various businesses add some urban flair to the area.

Very disappointed

We went 3 days with no AC, there was a leak coming from one of the locked closets. Smelled like cigarette smoke, holes in the wall, dirty sheets and pillow cases, even found a dirty diaper under one of the beds. One bed was broken. The pole was the best party but the maintenance and cleaning on this apartment was not good at all. I would not stay here again.

Family trip

We stayed at this location on our way to Tampa for a cruise. We were really impressed by not only the location, spacious rooms, cleanliness, amenities but kindness, honesty and prompt response of the owner. We would highly recommend and encourage anyone looking for a room in this area to stay here. Will stay again!!
