Hotels Near 7-Eleven in Tampa

Nothing stood out here.. I found the price to be too high, but this is post Covid so these prices are probably the new normal. I guess I am just not a big fan of the Fairfield Inns. Shower pressure was non-existant. Breakfast was mediocre and another thing that was probably better pre-Covid. Because of all the changes that e.g. Hotels had to do to meet Covid-Regulations—probably seeing how prepackaged foods is cheaper…and to then just keep this for the future. No more waffle makers.. Lots of dried scones. We requested a quiet room and this was granted. The carpets had just been cleaned. The bathroom has a strange setup when it comes to the towels and where they are, compared to the shower..I normally like to put my towel so that I can get it from inside the shower…not so easy there. It was clean…but needs some TLC in some areas of the bathroom. A bit dark in the room and no main light switch but had to go to each lamp singly which was another thing that I put to „strange set-up“ and maybe this is just how Fairfields are. Unless the prices become more reasonable..I think I would look around before staying here again. But it was fine for a first night after a long flight.

Good Stuff: location, amenities, service, cleanliness Bad Stuff: pillows I visit Tampa occasionally for work and this is the first hotel I stayed in that I will try to return to. The location is excellent. There is plenty to do in the immediate vicinity. There is easy access to the trolley service. You are close enough to walk downtown or to Ybor. The Selmon Greenway is across the street too - dumps off at the Riverwalk, so it’s great for a run. I was pleased with the amenities. The on site gym is one of the nicer hotel gyms I have been in. The pool looks great - definitely high-end for my normal level of hotel. There is also nice space to eat and drink either around the pool, in the lobby, or out front. I had nothing but positive engagements with the hotel staff. Everybody was friendly and polite. My only issue was it could be hard to get definitive answers from the front desk - lots of “probably,” “I think so,” etc. No issues with cleanliness. It’s not immaculate, but for this level of hotel, it was one of the better kept I have stayed in. Pillows - awful. They squish down to about the thickness of a piece of cardboard. And then they are so long that you can’t really fold them up under themselves well to make it better. The pillows caused me a few nights of problematic sleep.

Room keys don’t work. No hot water. Room not cleaned. And attitude to boot. My stay began pleasantly but that changed drastically, quickly. My 4th floor room key constantly failed - requiring several round trips up and down the elevator to a condescending and contentious staff member. Turns out the lock was malfunctioning (I keep keys far from anything that might deprogram them) Her unprofessionalism and eventual, reluctant choice to troubleshoot was not well received by me, plainly obvious by my frustrated demeanor. Nonetheless, to “compensate” for the inconvenience, I was advised by the same customer service-less staffer that I could be moved to a first floor room; a desirable, more convenient option affording me quick in and out access while I’m here on business. But alas, and coincidentally? The room to which the contentious and condescending employee referred me was without hot water for my 5am December morning shower. Furthermore, upon my 1pm return to my upgraded accommodation I entered into a space completely uncleaned. I feel like I’m being pranked at this point. Brining my concerns to a different staff member reveled that poor customer service is endemic at this particular facility. Her short responses to my inquiry about when my room might be cleaned and mid conversation escape to a back office as I spoke, convinced me I have a duty to inform other weary travelers that might unfortunately happen upon this place.

This hotel has been lived twice and feels like home. The hotel experience is satisfactory and the service attitude is good. Come back next time. Thanks for the good hotel recommended by Ctrip.com, I believe the brand of Ctrip.com is super awesome👍

I don't know if it is because the first floor, or Florida is too humid, anyway, there is a musty smell when entering the door. The room is quite big and the facilities are a bit old. The front desk is a bit indifferent compared to other hotels. Breakfast is similar, classic American. Stayed for two nights and slept the worst since coming to the United States. It's not noisy around, but the room doesn't feel very comfortable. There is a swimming pool, I haven't used it. I don't know how the score came from.

Stayed here for 4 nights. Excellent staff; everyone was very pleasant and professional. Had a problem with our room lock so had to move to another room. Toilets are way too low (unless you are very short). Why would a hotel renovate and not update to high toilets? Water pressure was low. Nice feature was the shampoo, conditioner & gel attached to wall. No maid service unless requested ( did not realize this as not told when checked in) only a sign posted. Room very clean and updated. Free breakfast good but ran out of bacon both days that we ate there. Parking fine and always managed to find a space.

Beautiful hotel and very clean. The service was friendly too. They don’t have a free breakfast so don’t pay extra for that when you book.

Booking in advance is guaranteed, the stay experience is acceptable
