Best review: “Wonderful experience! We loved the location and the facilities Seminole Hardrock had to offer. Rooms are very spacious especially when you are a family of 4. Very clean and neat. Staff is excellent and very professional. There are nice restaurants with delicious food and loved the Hard Rock Cafe ambience! Casino was fun! Pool is very relaxing and we liked the overall ambience!” Source: Booking.com

Worst review: “We booked a non-smoking room. When we arrived, we were informed that there were "no non-smoking rooms available, yet," and that they could not tell us when they would have one available. The only rooms available were smoking rooms, so it was that or nothing. The room reeked of cigarettes, in fact, the entire hotel and all casinos reeked of cigarette smoke, from top to bottom. We stayed at Hard Rock Biloxi over New Years' weekend and the opposite was true, despite the fact that smoking is also allowed in this hotel/casino. Hard Rock Tampa has a long way to go before it will be a destination hotel/casino like the Big Boys. We will not be returning.” Source: Booking.com

Top review: “One of the best experiences we have had at a Marriott location. The rooms were very clean and the staff was outstanding. From the front desk clerks to the breakfast lady. So nice and friendly. We even had a woman (I am assuming the Manager) stop by our breakfast table and ask if we were enjoying our stay. Now that is true hospitality. Thank you all so very much.” Source: Google.com

Bad review: “Horrible beds were awful empty shampoo bottles in bathroom, no toilet paper. Crystal was very helpful and she has great customer service. The general managers are liars and horrible people. They through Crystal under the bus. Charged us for a no show when we stayed the night. We had charges on our card they could not explain. I used points her response was the charges are to cover fraudulent use of points (Ridiculous). I will never stay at a Marriott hotel again. I could go on and on. Horrible horrible.” Source: Google.com

One of the 5-star reviews: “The stay was great! We only stayed one night but it was close to the Hard Rock Casino and it was super clean! Only little complaint would be that our TV was not working so I called the front desk and they told me to bring my remote down to the front desk and change it out. We were in the middle of trying to get changed and ready for our day wish they would have just brought up a new remote or brought up batteries.” Source: Expedia.com

Lowest rating review: “I needed wi-fi for some work I had to finish up, however the wi-fi would NOT connect to my computer. I called the front desk and explained to her that it would not connect. I asked for some IT help and she said she or someone else will call back. That NEVER happened and I had to go down the road to use wi-fi. Not expecting that from Marriott. for the price, the Wi-fi should work.” Source: Expedia.com

One of the 5-star reviews: “Thanks to Velencia, I enjoyed my stay because no other housekeeper offered me full service. I was able to get fresh sheets, pillow cases, comforter, towels and toilet paper because of her. I highly suggest they give her a raise because she is a valuable asset to Red Roof inn.” Source: Google.com

Lowest rating review: “Place is completely disgusting! It is very clear that the rooms have not been properly cleaned or sanitized what’s so ever ! Price is ridiculous considering every single piece of furniture is from the 80s and for a non smoking hotel the entire place smelled like a ash tray amongst other things. Unfortunately this experience was terrible and we spent way more money having to clean up and buy our own sheets just to make us feel a little comfortable in the room for the night.” Source: Google.com

Top review: “Great Inn. I enjoyed the breakfast! Rooms were comfortable and air conditioner, kept us cool at all times. Clean hallways. There was a pool, but I didnt took a dip, due to the errands I had to do.” Source: Google.com

Lowest rating review: “I realize that not all LaQuinta's are alike but this location is apparently older but doesn't have to be in this condition. The elevator was often wet and dirty. The floors in the lobby as well as the carpets in the hallways needed cleaning the entire 2 days I was there. The room was not much better. The comforter and cover below smelled and looked as if they were not washed. The bathroom had hair on the floor and the shower floor was taped but it was evident it was to cover an opening...possibly rusted out.” Source: Expedia.com

One of the 5-star reviews: “This is a very nice hotel and clean. The staff was friendly, the continental breakfast in the morning was good, not that you should expect much out of a breakfast that’s included. However it is very nice to have this as an option for a quick grab and go in the morning. My son said the coffee was good! I would definitely stay here again if I were going to another concert or event at the Ampitheatre” Source: Google.com

Lowest rating review: “The hotel itself is not worth the prices super run down and you’d be better off going somewhere else. We had an issue with the hotel and Kelly the manager did anything but help. She seems untrained for her position and has no hospitality skills. I hope the hotel improves their management and customer services because I’d rather sleep in my car then stay at this location.” Source: Google.com
