My room was recently renovated on the first floor by the pool. King bed, tile floor, nice bathroom, new air cond. convenient to get to from the airport. hotel personnel were very pleasant and helpful. Did not use the spa but it looked great. I would definately stay there again. Had dinner at SHells.get the shrimp pasta dish you can't... more

Since I have to make several trips to Tama General Hospital for an upcoming liver transplant, my fee was based on that fact. A good deduction, appreciated by my wife and I, who are both going through much stress, anxiety, etc. We stayed there in May and are going back end of July, so obviously we are locked in there!... more

We stayed at the Tahitian Inn for one night prior to a cruise leaving the port of tampa. Rooms were clean but sparse. I did notice they were moving furniture in and out of rooms. Looks like some remodeling going on. The cafe was great and close by although my travel companions said the drinks were a bit weak. I... more

The other reviewers are spot on - the pictures of this hotel are of the remodeled lobby - the room are in a skanky motel in the back... musty, retro in a bad way, patches in the walls, burns in the carpets... I would have expected this if I had paid $59 a night, but my room was well over... more

We booked a room overnight because I had an interview in Tampa the following day and we thought it looked great on the internet. Don't let the internet pictures fool you like they did us! The front lobby is nice and the people were polite, but hardly friendly. The door to our room had a 1" opening at the bottom... more

I rate this place above average for the price. It's an older hotel but it's a taste of "old Florida". It's got a smal cafe and bar. I only ate breakfast there but it was good. There is a large pool with a tiki bar and plenty of space. The staff was friendly and helpful. Most importantly, the place could... more

We flew into tampa from the UK and thought it would be an interesting place to stay for a couple of nights before staying at the beach. The Inn is in a good location, within easy drive of Tampa central, shopping malls and Busch Gardens. The pool was a good bonus. The room was clean, spacious, well equipped and tastefully... more

Honestly, I can't see how anyone could have rated this place as generously as TERRIBLE. This dump is nothing like what it describes on the website. After showing us four rooms, we settled for one of two "redecorated" rooms. HA! Formerly a smoking room, it reeked! If it weren't the night before an early flight we wouldn't have stayed, but... more

The pictures are not reality; and you'd be better off taking your hard earned dollars to a more known establishment. Objectively speaking, there are only 2 things going for this Motel: location relative to the distance to the airport and pool area. The room had a damp feel to it, a hole in the wall, patchwark in the bathroom tilework,... more
