Embassy Suites by Hilton Tampa USF Near Busch Gardens

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly staff and good breakfast"

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham USF (Near Busch Gardens)

8/10 Good

"Gave the place a 4 out of 5 as I know the place is under refurbishment. However. Shower had low water pressure and would occasionally vibrate as if there was air in the line. Also shower head was loose from the wall. Bathroom door had to be firmly pressed to shut at all. Pillows were also very lumpy and hard to sleep on. Otherwise room was adequate."

La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Tampa Near Busch Gardens

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed the nice ladies in the breakfast room. Our rooms were very clean and cool! We asked for a cot but there was not any available. The pool area was very nice at night. My only complaint is I wish they offered over the counter medicine like Tylenol or Aleve."
