We arrived 6 hours late due to flight delays from a storm. I called ahead to state we would arrive late and the staff were very accommodating and noted our delayed arrival for the next staff coming on duty. Greeted with a warm smile when we finally arrived. They also provided free transportation to our ship the next morning. 😀👍

Pool closes too early, some things in the room( toilet and bed) either made noises or (lamp) didn’t work right. Staff was pretty good and breakfast was good but no waffle maker. Good location too.

I love The Holiday Inn Express

I travel a lot and have learned that the HOLIDAY INN EXPRESS is the best hotel for the money. They have the best beds, showers, and breakfast buffet. Free parking, great amenities, locations, and I have never had an issue with staff or service. The East Tampa/ Ybor, staff was especially sweet and helpful. Thank you for another great night.

Outstanding Stay

The front desk staff was very kind and helpful! The hotel feels new (no idea when it was built). Everything was clean and fresh, and breakfast was great!
