Stayed at this hotel last weekend and I couldn't believe the previous comment!! First and most important...You really can't beat the price and location! I checked all the other hotels around and the prices were outrageous!!! My family has stayed here as well and highly recommended Gulfview hotel. We loved the atmosphere... Private beach, pool deck with jacuzzi, balcony rooms... More

Brian WAS an asset, he was pleasant and did his best to accommodate the requests and wishes of the older couple ahead of us at the registration desk. Ditto for us when our turn came. Regrettably, his last day was yesterday as he follows his wife’s move to another location. The room was clean with outdated furniture, which was OK... More

The only things that were wrong was everyone was right very slow elevator , both sides of the hotel have a bar next door only on weekends they play music no bugs or rats. The only living thing that we saw was a little 2... More

Upon check in the guy at the front desk was beyond rude!!!! He acted like I was bothering him by checking in. They also only allow one car to be parked in their parking lot per room. We had 2 cars so he told me we would have to park our other car across the street and pay $20 for... More

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful trip in Clearwater and Tampa. Our first three days, we stated at La Quinta in Pinellas Park. Loved it. It was quiet, guest service was GREAT and the rooms were very clean. I highly recommend La Quinta if you're planning a trip for Tampa and Ckearwater. We decided to stay one more night... More

Our family booked online. The room description was balcony overlooking to water for which we paid more. There are no balconies directly overlooking the water. The balconies are on the sides of the hotel so you have to lean over the railing and look to see the water. This is NOT a gulf view - more of a canal that... More
