Great hotel, very friendly and helpful staff, great breakfast included in room rate. Beds were quite comfortable and they have 1 bedroom and 2 bedroom units where the 2 BR units also have 2 bathrooms. Internet access is wireless or wired and quite responsive and fast. Only downside is that ALL beds are only queen size, no kings at all.

The hotel has special rates for people coming to the nearby Moffit Cancer Center. The suite I stayed in has a separate room for the bed/bath. My room has a full kitchen with toaster, dishes, full size coffee pot, and refrigerator. The staff were all kind and courteous.
The hotel also had a little "happy hour" in the afternoon with complimentary wine and beer (And chicken wings(on the night I was there)).

I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone coming to Tampa for any reason.

I happen to stay at this property for 3 months and I must say , Suitable for business travellers. Locations is very central with good facilities and many places of entertainment within a 10 mile radius. Lots of options for eating out sicne its close to university area. Some very renown medical facilities are also nearby in case of emergencies. Rooms are apt for single or people with families visiting Tampa. Pool , Jacuzzi , Gym , Breakfast & Supper are some of the additional features which would add to the experience....Good place to stay with lots of local places to explore nearby......

We stayed at the Residence Inn for 4 nights in July 2012. We had a two bedroom apartment which included a fully equiped kitchen. Each bedroom had its own ensuite which was nice. The apartment wasn't huge but it was good value for the price. There is a nice pool and small gym on the premises. The staff were very helpful and the location was good for us as we had a car and we wanted to be close to USF. The apartment and public areas were very clean and tidy. There is a complimentary breakfast provided which we didn't know about prior to arrival; the breakfast is fairly basic and is served on plastic dinnerware and utensils which I think lets the place down a little - his is just a minor thing that could be improved should management want to take their Inn to the next level.
