10/10 Excellent

"Excellent "

Hotel South Tampa & Suites

8/10 Good

"Free breakfast is not really “breakfast”. Just some bread, fruits, bagels and sausage and eggs that doesn’t look fresh. I saw the server holding a plastic Tupperware with prepared before hand egg omelet with cheese on it. I just ended up having just a coffee. The room and property were good. No airport shuttle is a minus for me."
