The hotel room had been given the "landlord special" far too many times. The drywall had been poorly patched on top of patched multiple times. The caulk around tub was an inch wide, amd smeared all around the corners. The toilet wobbled and there was a cracked tile on the floor. The staff was friendly and helpful and the hotel convenient, but I will find another property next time

The property overall is very nice. Well appointed. Rooms are nice. Everything was clean. Would like halls and rooms to be a little brighter. The pool heater was not working and hot tub jets were not working. Also the elevator was about 8 months out of inspection. Makes me.concerned about about overall safety amd maintenance of where i am staying. The staff was all extremely nice from front desk, restaurant, housekeeping and maintenance. One our last day the server said they ran out of syrup cups before we got our food in case we wanted to change anything. We said it was fine with last 4 she had. However, she remembered that they still had a large container from when they used to pour in cups, so she brought that out. Tells me she has been there a little while and cares. The great staff made up for any mimor inconveniences. Would definitely stay there again. It is a very convenient location to 75 and USF campus.

Room cleaning & repair needed

First, I will say that the staff was exceptional. Very friendly & welcoming. The hotel’s condition was subpar. Our room smelled like mildew & we noticed on our second day that the roof had some damage possibly from a leak. The room was extremely humid, the bathroom had not been mopped, and the toilet had not been cleaned/scrubbed (had a visible ring). On the third day, our room was “cleaned” but, when we returned, the ring was still there. The carpet definitely needs to be cleaned as well. We would’ve changed hotels but nothing in our price range was available due to special events in the city.
Toilet ring - takes more than a few days typically for that to appear
Mold around tub - need to replace caulk
The ceiling needs repair for a possible leak.

Great Staff, but moldy bathroom

Staff at this hotel are very friendly and accommodating! We were always met with a smile and any little request was promptly met with ease. We love the beautiful lobby and all the little seating vignettes available. The hotel is conveniently located to the interstate and local restaurants. Unfortunately, this hotel is the only one we've stayed at in Florida that has noticeable mold issues. Black mold all around the tub caulk and a sizeable noticeable black patch above one of our beds. It's gross.

Good but could be better

What the location lacks in updates it makes up for in customer service. The staff was very nice, courtesy, provided information, all with smiles and grace. I do think for a Hilton, there are some necessary room upgrades that are necessary. We stayed on the 4th floor and it seems there was a plumbing issue because there was definitely a humid smell in the hallways.

I enjoyed my stay but there was one thing that was a great bothersome. In the rooms, the curtains do not allow for closure so that made waking up in the mornings a bit uncomfortable as the sun would be shining directly into my eyes. I would suggest making it an option for guests to have their curtains closed or open. Otherwise, the room was great!
