rooms are disgusting . No working tv , no working fridge , mood , no pool , cigarette burns everywhere. Dirty bed, floors and walls WTH, oh and the smell it’s like a trash can.. I had to disinfect the entire room… it’s horrible.. I had no choice because they already had my money & it would not be released for 10 days.. I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. So sad I really want a full refund.

I reserved a room for one night at the Bay Inn through Hotels.com. Upon arrival, the hotel clerk offered us an opportunity to "see the room" before she checked us in. She anticipated we would not want to stay there when she saw us. We CLEARLY WERE NOT THEIR TYPICAL CLIENTILE. The room she showed us smelled like smoke and was not very clean. She showed us a second room that also was not very clean and had a taped up window. The hotel is not located in a very "good" part of Tampa. We did NOT stay at the hotel. The clerk commented, "It's ok, I got you momma". We left and drove further to stay with family.

Checked in and the front desk person said I didn't have a reservation. They finally found our room and gave us a key and parking pass for the dash. The parking pass had our room number on it. Such a safety issue that anyone who sees our vehicle knows which room we are in. We finally got into room 124 and were so disgusted. The room had mold in corners, chunks of wall missing, comforter had stains cigarette burns, toilet paper holder broken, TP was sitting on top of toilet, it was just gross. We don't have high standards but a clean room with no mold is expected. Lots of homeless in the area within a couple of blocks. Came from a long day at Busch gardens and didn't want to deal with trying to find a decent room at this place or another hotel so we drove the 2.15 hours back home. For almost $200, there are so many better options.

Ya vieron los videos de la comida india?? Bueno aquí es donde duermen. Llegué ese dia recibí la llave, 1ra habitación no servia el AC cambié a una segunda que si servia pero en ambas existía las mismas condiciones. El olor a humedad era demasiado ni yo ni mi esposa somos alergicos y entrando empezamos a estornudar. Está lleno de moho todo. En fin cerramos la puerta y nos fuimos para otro hotel. La zona es un hood prepárense para no bajarse del auto y olvídense de comer cerca
