Don't get me wrong The Hyatt is an excellent hotel, but this one didnt just do it for me, the front desk was very friendly but the cleaning ladies need some attitude adjusters, #1 they did a sloppy job cleaning the room, except for a day prior to our departure, im thinking they probably thought we checked out lol! The location itself its okay if you like the busch gardens but was complete pain for us having to drive from the north side of the town to the downtown area, and elsewhere, was not so sold on the neighborhood, seemed to be favored by just one group, will rather be in mix, checked out restaurants around the area and was NOT impressed by the level of customer service. Would continue to stay Hyatt but not on this location The pool area was the most part crowded but the hotel did great with providing towels right by the entryway though some people seemed not to take notice so it was slippery on the hallway. I really liked the plasma tv's in each room, just hope the hotel can invest in getting more cable channels

I came to Tampa for Business and brought my family. They went to Busch Gardens (up the street) and what a pleasant surprise that we all loved the hotel. Hyatt Place is a great chain (clean, friendly, and lots of free extras!)

We wanted to stay close to Busch Gardens and after researching hotels in the area, I chose Hyatt Place, it has received some good reviews from other guests. It is only a couple miles from the park. The only problem I had with our room was the carpet was stained, the Front desk offered to change our room, but we decided against it,otherwise the room was very clean and comfortable.We only stayed for two days but during that time everyone who worked there was very nice and friendly.

Staff was super friendly and accommodating. xxx at front desk greeted us and showed us the hotel when we arrived. She mentioned where to park for ultimate safety in the event that we were out late. While the area is safe it is in a major city in a bustling section of North Tampa. You will be all of 5 minutes from Busch Gardens (you can see the roller coasters from the end of the driveway), only a few minutes from any restaurant you might want (Carrabbas Italian, Chipotle Grill, Asian, Vietnamese, Tia's Tex-Mex, really...you name it). The University Mall is 5 minutes down the street and it is huge and has some great USF and Baseball clothing for inexpensive prices. Complementary breakfast included various cereals (hot and cold), yogurt, fresh fruit, Starbucks coffee, tea, juices, various bread options. You could order other freshly prepared breakfast items on-screen or with the front desk but we didn't think it was necessary. The pool is clean though not huge and there is no hot tub but this is not listed as a full service hotel so we didn't expect one. The rooms are large for our family of three w/ the pull out sofa a fine bed for our six year old. Bathrooms were small and not yet remodeled but we were aware of that from the beginning. The whole room was cleaned thoroughly daily. Everyone was friendly and helpful and we encourage anyone going to the area to try this hotel. More than met our expectations and standards.

The decor is very modern and clean. Everything looked fresh and new. They beds were nice and soft. There is also a huge plasma screen TV in the room. For breakfast we could go down to the lobby area and you can order eggs, ham, bacon......bascially and thing you would like. The hostess was very nice and showed us to our room. It was very relaxing after a long day of walking around at Busch Gardens which is only a few minutes away. Nearby there are all sorts of resturants. Mc Donalds to Olive Garden. Also nearby CVS and Walgreens. Very convenient.
