She is a very warm and welcoming person and the Sparkman House BnB reflects this. The food itself was amazing! The sweets are out of this world and the savory foods were fantastic. The attention to detail is impressive (seriously, the decor of the place is impeccable!) and the staff was wonderful and so kind. My best friend, who's attended multiple tea parties at multiple places in Tampa as a child, said this was the best tea party she's ever been to. I would absolutely recommend anyone who is looking for a lovely time with family and/or friends to come book with Theresa.

I've eaten here before, and their biscuits and gravy used to be really good. This time I ordered…read morethem to go and didn't realize there was a 10% to-go fee added to the order. On top of that, the waitress helped herself to a tip on two separate checks and kept my change. When I asked for my receipt, she seemed like she didn't want to give it to me. She gave me one receipt, but not the other. I'll never eat there again. The food used to be really good, but now it's just okay. At this establishment, they do not give you back change because the waitress pocket it

I stayed at The Terrace Hotel by Hilton and, unfortunately, the experience was mediocre at best…read more For a hotel charging over $200 a night, and it being a HILTON, the level of service was disappointing and nowhere near what I expect from this brand. There is no room service. While you can order food online from the restaurant, you're required to go down to the lobby to pick it up yourself. On top of that, there is no food available after 10 p.m. The "all-day menu" advertised online is misleading, as it's actually only available during lunch and dinner hours, with no clear times listed anywhere. There's also no ice service as advertised on the property. You have to go searching for it yourself on specific floors (the 4th or 6th). I requested extra pillows at the time of booking, and that request was never accommodated. The building is located on a very busy street, and the noise was constant throughout the night. Between traffic and garbage trucks beeping around 4 a.m., getting a good night's sleep was difficult. The one and ONLY bright spot of the entire stay was the valet attendant, who was incredibly friendly and had a great attitude; easily the best part of the experience. Overall, this stay was a huge waste of money and fell FAR short of the service and comfort I associate with Hilton. I will NOT be staying here again, and you should consider a different establishment if you're looking for a truly comfortable and service oriented stay. To say I'm disappointed is an understatement.

Cons: If you care about your sleep I would avoid this hotel. Sleeping is pretty much impossible in this hotel you will hear the train, noisy cars and bikes, police, fire and ambulance.

Being located inside the old courthouse in downtown Tampa, Le Meridien was a good choice to stay…read moreduring our weekend in the city to see Suzy Eddie Izzard at the Straz Center -- that turned out to be 12 minutes walking distance from our hotel. The location is close to a number of restaurants and bars including CW's Gin Joint that is five minutes walking. The art museum is also nearby in addition to a couple of Starbucks. I wouldn't recommend walking down to the hockey center which is about 20 minutes walking at least and goes under the Selmon Expressway overpass. Some of the areas in downtown can be sketch so you will need to Uber if you don't plan on driving and parking. Parking, speaking of which, will be expensive whether you are valeting at $45 a night or park in one of the garages nearby. Some I think are $15-20 a day but depends on the garage. The valet at least are fast with getting your car. Overall, the staff was friendly and courteous. Our check in went quickly to grab our keys and direct us to our room that was on the first floor. Housekeeping was friendly and prompt as well. The room was easily accessible from the lobby and close to the pool area. Our bed was comfortable with a fridge, plenty of drawer and shelf space in the closet. Our room had some modern artwork as well. The bathroom was spacious and the water pressure was solid. Although it took a minute to figure out how to adjust the water temperature without scalding yourself. They have a fitness center but it's up on the top floor and can be a challenge to find at first if you don't know where you're going. The signage helps a bit. It's in this spooky hallway where the court reporters were located and juries deliberated. You wonder if there were any unexplained or brutal murders that took place but I didn't feel any haunted presences nor are any brought up as an attraction. So probably not. But the gym's amenities are solid between the cardio machines and the weights available. Towels are available and a water cooler. They have a restaurant and bar that serves all three meals as well as ice cream and coffee. I only stopped there for an extra dirty, which was ok but could have been dirtier. I would stay here again. It's primely located in downtown Tampa and not far from most points of interest.

Overall a great stay- location, service and amenities. Valet service was efficient as well when we needed our car.

On the negative side it is a bit tired, the exercise room is small, pool needs a vacuuming, and the fixtures seem like they are getting to the end of their service life. I've stayed here a couple times for work, and one time I opened the tub spigot and got a huge cloud of grey water out. The sink sputtered quite a bit as well-maybe they just finished some plumbing work, I don't know-but it just has a feel that it is in need of a refresh. It's a decent place to stay but probably not my favorite.

What is not so good about it is that it doesn't have a restaurant. It does have a very good looking bar with an extremely limited snack menu; nothing one would like to make a meal of. On Swan is a nearby restaurant that will, however, meals to your room after 5pm. The rooms are very nice but when I was there it was very cold outside and the heating in my room wasn't very good. The service is exceptionally good, as is the valet service. Bar drinks are of a rather miserly pour and the bar menu is nothing to speak of. And, of course, the television in my room didn't work, Ugh!! Oh, and their kitchen oven is broken down too, so bar bites are limited. LOL! Would I stay here again?? No, too many unpleasant surprises.
