Residence Inn by Marriott Tampa Wesley Chapel

This hotel is two years old (one of the newest in Wesley Chapel) so you would assume that it would be clean and in good shape. That was not the case. We stayed in the king bed studio and the room was pretty beat up. Scratches and dents on the walls and furniture everywhere. There was a long black hair on the counter where the mirror is. The bathroom towels had black hair in them when you opened them up. The shower does not have a door, so the water leaked out onto the bathroom floor leaving a large puddle of water. The air conditioner was right in front of the bed which made a very loud sound when turned on (basically sounded like a plane was taking off). The only positive was that the staff was overall friendly at the front desk. There is also a Culver's restaurant about a mile away which you could walk to. I would not stay here again mostly due to the fact that the room didn't seem very clean. I was disappointed in my stay and was expecting more.

This is by far the nicest Residence Inn I have ever stayed at. These new hotels have thought of Everything in the rooms! The staff was SO nice and helpful and willing to do anything to make the stay enjoyable. It was decorated nice for the holidays and they were so nice about having a dog! The location was Great and next door to an outdoor mall that I could take the dog. The rooms were clean clean clean and so nice. Highly recommend this hotel. Great staff!!

very nice and new hotel. plenty of room for family of four (got the room 2 queens larger studio). here's what was odd: asked for extra towels day 2... was told since we get housekeeping every other day so "they would see what they can do" (spoiler: no towels). we did get towels the third day... also the AC unit was ridiculous; either blew like a wind tunnel at 60 degrees or it stopped and it was 74 degrees. no fan setting.... for more positives: the breakfast was one of the best, everyone super nice. even the front desk dude who agreed the towel policy was ridiculous and due to staffing.

We stayed for a month in temporary housing.We found it was a great location for walking our dog. The staff was super nice,helpful and friendly. We especially liked the breakfast staff who were always cheerful. The coffee was good as well as the food. A good deal of shops are nearby and lots of restaurants as well. Our room did have a cracked stovetop Which they were aware of ,and they offered to move us after we realized it.But after moving all our stuff in and hanging up clothing. Plus all the extra stuff we had we decided to not relocate. So went to Walmart and bought a electric skillet. But not sure why they would put someone in that room who was a long term stay.

Awesome Location and Wonderful hotel. One of the better Residence Inn's I have stayed in (my default first choice when traveling). An honest review would be 4.5 stars. But did not have that as an option. Wife and I were in the area to hit the normal attractions (Busch Gardens, Aquarium, Riverwalk, etc). Everything is within 30 mins and light traffic on the routes. Plan to stay here every time I return to Tampa. Loved our stay! TIP: Hillsborough State Park is a short drive away from the hotel. We hit it on the way home and it turned out to be one of our favorite activities. Do the Rapid River trail. Short easy trail to walk. Love our State Parks in Florida! Pros: 1. Excellent Service. I was greeted warmly when I arrived and quick to respond to my calls. Always said hello when I walked by the front desk (unless checking some one in). 2. Hotel is very nice and clean. One heads up - the beds are on the firm side. Personally, I love a firm bed. 3. Far enough away from attractions to avoid traffic but close enough to be a short drive. 4. Wesley Chapel is a VERY nice area. Plenty of places to eat close by. Cons: (all minor to us) 1. The TV's at the hotel do not allow you to connect your own device into the TV. For example - I travel with an Amazon Firestick. I plugged it into HDMI 2, but there is no way to SWITCH to HDMI 2 on the remote OR the TV itself. I called the front desk for service. Someone was there in 5 mins. He confirmed that was by design\policy. I did try plugging my Firestick into HDMI 1 (replacing the hotel connection). Worked but VOLUME was at 100% and no way to change. I did eventually find an option under the "streaming" TV menu. But it did not work either. Hopefully this is a policy the hotel reconsiders. 2. Breakfast. We tried the first morning. Your typical "American breakfast" at a hotel. The staff was incredibly nice, but food was not good. There is a nice KeKe's right down the road - so we just ate there after that.

issue is parking. waaay too large of a building for this small of a lot. the HUGE sports center next door was packed, and folks were using the hotel parking lot, the grass, the medians, the road shoulders, and the empty lot next door( which turned into a mud pit). Had to walk 1/4 mile through the mud as all the spots anywhere near the hotel were taken. not nearly enough parking and most are labeled for compact cars only.

Nearly everything about our stay was fantastic. Our room was spacious, clean, and smelled great. In fact, the lobby smelled great! The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The bed was a bit too soft for me. I don't like to sink into a mattress but the rest of my family loved the beds. The free breakfast Saturday morning was stocked with delicious foods and the coffee tasted good. A great place to bring your family for a great stay.

Great Experience all around. Location is adjacent to the sports complex. We were there for a V-Ball tournament. Breakfast buffet was great. You have your usual breakfast items, nothing special, but the service was great. The attendants were constantly checking, cleaning, and replenishing. With the number of players and their families there, we didn't have to ask for anything. Front desk reps were very friendly, check in was quick. Thank you.
