tampa convention

Very conveniently located next to the Tampa convention center. Breakfast is very convenient and included with rooms though food quality could be better. The biggest negative is the cleanliness. The bathrooms in particular are not well maintained and the rooms could use some updating as the furniture is showing signs of extended use and lack of cleanliness.

Disappointed

Parking for large vehicles was not available due to refrigeration implementation. Having to find overnight parking downtown on the spot was not pleasant. AC took a long time to cool down and towels ran out? Room service took all the towels and didn't replace. Shouldn't have taken the towels. Bed was hard and not comfortable. Pillows were fluffy but too soft and flat. Shower door didn't shut tight and leaked. Deterioration in bathroom corners could be from the moisture. Bedsheets had a stain but was in the bottom corner so didn't complain. For a nice hotel at that price... upgrade and renovation is needed. The breakfast is still the Best!

Ernest at the front desk was the absolute best! Justin was also great and both showed exceptional customer service! Bryan, our valet, was very helpful and the entire team in Taste was great too! The Starbucks team inside the hotel (I went in early Monday morning) for a cup of coffee and some breakfast sandwiches, were downright unfriendly in their tone and in nature, messy with the drinks, and showed no customer service at all. I was totally shocked. This was the first time I ever experienced this type of customer service at a Starbucks, and I travel heavily!!! They can do better at this location. They also had NO napkins, no supplies and the store was untidy.

Staying at the Embassy was exceptional! This part of the downtown Tampa area was so clean and safe! Walking to convention center was easy with use of crosswalk ( although it was safe and easy from street below as well). I ate in the hotel restaurant every night. The service and food was good each time! Parking was easy. One of the best hotel experiences I have had….even compared to more expensive stays!
