Very nice hotel in a great location, couple blocks to the free trolley that takes you around down town. We felt safe and the staff were nice, friendly and seemed to care that we were taken care of. Clean and comfy sized rooms with a cute little kitchenette, the free breakfast was a nice added bonus.

Busch Gardens

Divided into four African-themed zones, this savannah-sized theme park provides thrills for all the family. Falcon’s Fury swoops you earthwards at 97 km/h, while Cheetah Hunt mimics the low-to-ground acceleration of the speedy cat. Head to the zoo area for up-close encounters with cheeky monkeys and pluming peacocks. Get to the park early to avoid the longest coaster queues.

    Wear good walking shoes, and sunscreen.

    Wear good walking shoes, and sunscreen. Bring rain gear if you plan on the River Ride to stay dry and to keep your cameras and cell phones dry. The property is beautifully landscaped, and the shows are wonderful.

    It should be closed entirely during Covid.

    It should be closed entirely during Covid. What they offer now is way too limited for the full entrance fee that they charge. Other than the roller coasters, everything else, including food stations, was pretty much closed. We feel we were ripped off!

    All of the rooms are suites so there’s plenty of space. The pool is lovely. The free breakfast is nice. The location is why we come because it’s so close to Busch Gardens.

    No matter if we were heading to Tampa Bay stadium, Busch Gardens theme park we were only a few minutes away... Clearwater Beach was only a short 20 minute drive...The property manager was very attentive and excellent communicator... I almost hate to give this recommendation because part of me wants to keep this my personal little secret Tampa hideaway...😂😂😂

    Tara was amazing. She was able to check me in early and was very sweet. I was staying at this hotel for the Halloween event at Busch Gardens. The shuttle driver Rick was nice and conversational on the ride to and from the park. I will definitely be staying again.

    The room was extremely clean. The towels were new. I am not fond of using hotel towels. The hotel was quiet and the bed was comfortable. We had a suite which came complete with a full size refrigerator/freezer, microwave, dishes, and a dishwasher. The location was also close enough to Busch Gardens.

    Our host is very accommodating and does well with communicating any issues. The unit is on the first floor of a quiet apartment community that houses college students. The unit supplied my family with our basic needs for a 4 nights stay. We loved that each room had its own bathroom and enjoyed sitting out on the enclosed patio. Great proximity to grocery store, Walmart, gym, and Busch Gardens. The pool area is clean and comfortable, but not meant for younger children if they aren't swimmers (shallowest area is about 4ft).

    The bed was comfortable but the pillows were flat. It appears to be older hotel they remodeled. The night staff was good, the morning staff was a little better. The location is terrific, close to the Zoo, Busch Gardens and the university. Overall a nice place to stay for the price.
