Ozone and musty smell
Celestino G.

Smelly musty rooms with poor front of house staff. Not helpful at all. Will NEVER stay at this chain again.

Our stay at the Hampton Inn was really nice and relaxing. The staff was pleasant and welcoming, and…read moreour room was clean and comfortable. We were given a room on the first floor directly in front of the elevator, so there was some minor noise throughout the night. However, I don't consider this a negative against the hotel because that was the room that was available, and we were only staying for one night. The location of the room naturally comes with a little more foot traffic and elevator noise. One of the things I really liked about this hotel was the convenient location. The hotel shares a lot with another hotel and several restaurants, including Outback Steakhouse, Red Lobster, Panera Bread, and Dutch Bros Coffee. Across the street, there's a Chick-fil-A, Applebee's, and Burger King, and within less than a mile there's also a Sonic and an animal hospital. So if you're looking for a hotel where you have plenty of dining and convenience options nearby, this is definitely a plus. We didn't have the breakfast during this stay, but we did enjoy the coffee, which was, as always, consistently hot and fresh. The coffee area was clean, and I noticed staff members frequently nearby tidying up the food and coffee station and making sure everything stayed stocked, including the coffee. Overall, we had a pleasant, clean, and relaxing one-night stay. The staff was friendly, the room was clean, the hotel was conveniently located, and everything we needed was close by. I would definitely consider staying here again.

The weather was a little cooler the in evening so it was very nice to have access to the clean, heated pool to swim a few laps. Exercise room was great too. Easily more equipment that most hotel gyms. The breakfast was pretty typical of Hampton Inns. WE appreciated that the fresh fruit was fresh. They served scrambled eggs, ham and a variety of baked goods as well as cereals. The coffee was good and hot and they kept it full. The hotel was probably at capacity the night we stayed but as busy as they were all the staff was nice and the whole place was kept very clean. Walking distance from Outback, Red Lobster, CFA as well as a few other places. We had a nice stay here.

We had a king room, which was nicely furnished, had lots of surface space for luggage, a desk and comfortable chair, an easy chair, and 2 ottomans. There was a floor safe inside the armoire. The bed was comfortable and there were choices of firm or soft pillows. Each of the nightstands had outlets, and there were wall-mounted sconces above the nightstands. The room and bathroom were very clean. Toiletries were Dove brand. Breakfast was better than at many similar hotels. There were more choices of hot items (for example, turkey sausage and pork sausage), and the cinnamon rolls were wonderful. The coffee was dispensed from Costa machines that are always available in the lobby, and it was actually good. Both decaf and regular coffee were available and ground freshly each time. The person taking care of the breakfast area was very diligent in keeping it clean and well stocked. There was a reasonably-priced guest laundry on the 2nd floor. Quarters are needed, and these and detergent are available in the lobby. My only complaints are that the self- closing room doors were quite loud, the bed was high (be careful getting out!), and our room was on the first floor adjacent to the pool. The lighting at the pool was on all night and impossible to completely block out with the curtains. Also, hot water supply was lacking between about 7-7:30 am both days of our stay. All in all, we had a good stay and would consider returning if in the area again.

Clean, great air conditioning, and even better coffee!…read more The staff were accommodating, the rooms were very clean, and it's in a great location. We have been very impressed by Holiday Inns on the east coast. And of course, the great coffee at Holiday Inn!

Staff I would rate at a B. The resort itself is very modern and well appointed. But the golf is what truly earns this place 5 stars. Blue is my favorite course with wide fairways, sprawling vistas, and the signature hole on the entire property. Red is epic as well with holes carved out of the mining wasteland. And black is fun with enormous greens and massive waste areas. Definitely a must play destination for any serious golfer.

WOW! Seriously something special here... the BEST destination golf resort in the east coast IMHO -…read moreand I've played and been everywhere continental U.S., add Hawaii and Puerto Rico. If in Canada, fine, look up Taboo, but they only have one golf course. Fire up the boys and get them out here to enjoy an incredible golfing experience. Fine, bring the ladies too; the underground caves Spa with multiple pools is unreal. They call the area BONE VALLEY - look it up. I've had a residence in Florida for 25 years and never knew of the history in central Florida. Look up Hernando de Soto who camped here in the 1500s. Crazy. They found Megalodon teeth on site when mining for phosphates that is now exhibited in the lobby. Resort Hotel is spectacular. The rooms are fantastic - the floor to ceiling wood louver doors are out of bounds. I had a large studio suite overlooking the pool facing west. The architect deserves an award. The roof deck has two separate bar options "gaming" or "sophisticated" lounging. Cigars welcome on the decks and they sell great brands if you forgot to plan ahead. Golf. Well, the golf like nothing I've played before. Need to play it to believe it. Our caddie, we were lucky to get paired with him, a Jamaican who knew his way around a course... Delroy Cambridge. Thank you for taking care is us. Restaurants. Ridiculous. Too many venues to review here and now honestly. The best was the steakhouse. I'd drive an hour to dine here. Two of us had the filet entree- the sauce was stupid, lobster escargot, chicken entree, two salads, service was wonderful (at all locations). Just go.

Arriving- The Jacaranda is on Main Street so finding it is a snap. There is street parking in the front and a large parking lot behind the hotel. Availability- The ACE lunch buffet is only weekdays and only when the snowbirds are here. The remainder of the year, lunch reverts to menu-based. Check the website for availability if you're worried. Ambience- Very, very, very nice. Some folks say elegant. Two large dining rooms. See my picture. It's so nice you might worry about the $$ but don't fret! More about that later. Adult Libations- Sorry, not here. If you are dying for an adult drink, there is a great bar seconds away. Have a great lunch here and then head over as many folks do. Just Yelp it. Customer Service- I've visited many times and never had a problem. They serve most drinks by the carafe here and leave it on the table which is much appreciated by many folks. You pay on your way out at a desk in the hotel lobby. Pricing- It's currently $17.50 for soup, salad, multiple hot entrees, dessert, and drinks. And of course it's ACE. Food- The food is stick to your ribs comfort food. There are basically five stations. 1. Pick up your warm rolls and butter here. 2. Today's homemade soup which varies, and I love most of them. 3. A fresh, beautifully maintained salad bar. See my picture. 4. Hot entrees and sides which are different every day. On my last visit I zeroed in on sliced pork tenderloin which was excellent. Note that they almost always have fried chicken as one of the entrees. 5. Dessert. There is a substantial display, but I never make it there as I'm already stuffed! So a four star, sit down, ACE lunch in a beautiful atmosphere for less than twenty bucks! Sound good? You bet!

While it may seem like a quaint old hotel, it is desperate need of some work. We were told at…read morecheck in that half the hotel are college dorm rooms and the other hotel rooms. The rooms are old, outdated, and dirty. The bathroom was absolutely disgusting. The elevator can only be run by the hotel staff. The closet appeared to be shared by adjacent room. I guess that is why it had a lock on it. No TV in the bedroom and very limited outlets.

With nowhere to go we turned to Yelp and say Staybridge Suites was near by so decided to take a shot and I'm so glad we did.

Review - Lakeland, FL (3855 Don Emerson Dr.)…read more I stay in hotels constantly for work and typically choose brands like Holiday Inn Express, Holiday Inn, and similar business-class properties. This is not a hotel I would normally book, but I gave it a chance. First, credit where it's due: Drew at the front desk was excellent. Friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful during check-in. He did a great job and represents the hotel well. One of the housekeepers I interacted with was also very kind. That said, the property itself is clearly worn and not very clean. There was dirt on the floors in the elevator and hallways, the walls are scuffed and dirty, and the room itself was just okay at best. You can hear people clearly through the walls, and because of the courtyard layout, noise carries easily. There was a party nearby that was impossible to ignore. I was still prepared to stay a couple of nights and deal with it. My colleague was scheduled to remain here for roughly nine weeks for a project, so we were willing to tolerate the condition for convenience. The problem came when our client left early and postponed the project until Monday, forcing me to return to the hotel mid-day and request an early checkout. The front desk staff tried to help, but the General Manager refused to come out and speak to me, choosing instead to stay behind closed doors and deny any flexibility. Charging a full additional night--not a half day, but a full night--under these circumstances is incredibly shortsighted, especially for a frequent traveler with elite status. A half-day charge would have been reasonable. Waiving the charge entirely would have been smart business. Instead, that decision caused us to move our entire team to the Hilton Garden Inn next door, which is cleaner, quieter, competitively priced, and includes breakfast. Congratulations--you may have made about $100 today, but you lost thousands of dollars in future business. I was willing to put up with the condition of the hotel for a short stay, but poor leadership and rigid, guest-unfriendly policies are a dealbreaker. Refusing to even meet a loyal guest face-to-face is unprofessional and frankly rude. In summary: * Staff like Drew are excellent * The property is rundown and noisy * Cleanliness needs improvement * Management is inflexible and shortsighted I would not recommend this hotel, and I will not return. Travelers who value cleanliness, reasonable service recovery, and professional leadership should look elsewhere. FYI, right next-door there's a Hilton Garden Inn. It's nice gorgeous and it has conference rooms and breakfast so we just decided to move there for better quality but I'm glad that GM made an extra hundred dollars. Congratulations.
