| This is a clean hotel conveniently located to the highway and most major attractions. Great location along riverwalk as well. Nothing was more than a 10 to 15 minute walk. Two thumbs up! |

| I found my stay at Howard Johnson to be above average. I was a perfect distance away from the Tampa convention center, and the free shuttle was wonderful in taking me places a little farther away. The staff were helpful and the shuttle drivers knowledgable about local sights and events. I requested a late checkout and the staff was kind enough to give me permission. Wonderful stay and trip. |

| This hotel was fine for the price -- the room was comfortable, quiet, and relatively inexpensive for the location. However, the on-site restaurant was a joke -- not bad food (again, for the price), but when a large group of seniors expected to be served, the servers and the food preparers hid behind "we didn't expect so many people to show up" and "a few people didn't show up to work" and "no, there is not a manager with whom you can speak." I'm guessing that the restaurant is a VENDOR to this hotel location, and not one who is doing Howard Johnson's any favors. This is not hearsay -- I observed everything I report here. |

| The toilet was in a state of disrepair. Maintenance was not on duty. Security had to respond and attempted to repair. It continued to flush after it had overflowed. Needless to say sleeping was close to impossible.
However, the chef or manager of the restaurant as well as the staff was very accommodating. The transportation was poor, we had to wait for some 35 minutes to be returned to the hotel. |

| Hotel is great for business or attending a function nearby (hockey game, convention center, performing arts, etc).
Location: Very close to all of the venues noted above. However, finding a restaurant nearby was such a pain! As with most downtown streets, they are one-way, meaning to get out of downtown it takes a very long time. We got caught in traffic when the hockey game was starting nearby. The Publix that was 8 minutes away on our GPS took us 1 hour roundtrip.
Positives: The staff was very nice. The complimentary shuttle service was a plus. Plenty of storage room in the room itself. Air conditioning was great. The housekeepers greeted us at all times, even if they weren't attending our room. Comfortable beds - a big plus!
Negatives: The toilet seat was very open, meaning my 8 year-old had to balance herself. Not meant for someone with a little tush. ;) The pool was not heated so couldn't enjoy that. Not much for the kids to do, but downtown areas aren't really meant for kids (my husband was running the races in Gasparilla, which is why the kids came along). The elevators were a bit rickety. $8 a night for parking, when the description said free parking.
Overall, it was a nice hotel. Wouldn't recommend it for people bringing kids, unless in the summer when the pool could be utilized. Great location for the local venues. |

| I had no problems at all during my stay. My room was clean and very comfortable, the food in the restaurant was very good and the staff was friendly. The price was reasonable compared to the other Hotels in the area and I felt I got what I paid for. |

| This is an older hotel and the hallways and some common areas show it. The rooms were updated and nice except for odd and ill-fitting bathroom fixtures, including a countertop that was sort of wedged in at an angle. The location is within walking distance to downtown shops and restaurants. The value is hard to beat, though, and I've been charged three times as much for similar accommodations elsewhere. |
