Home2 Suites by Hilton Brandon Tampa

The property is maintained well. Nice and clean

Very nice and comfortable stay.

Great location as an alternate hotel if visiting the Tampa Bay Area. Less than 20 mins to the downtown area. Rooms are standard but somewhat neglected. We stayed in rm 501 and it's showing signs of aging. TV volume was off. We had it crank up to 45-50 on the tv and could barely hear it. Mold in the far corner of the shower and the facet cover was loose. We tried the pool and it was very accommodating after a hot day of sightseeing. Appreciated the close proximity from the pool to the main elevators. Only had the continental breakfast once during our two night stay and honestly was displeased. Was subpar compared to other Hilton brand hotels. No flavor and nothing was warm. The final issue was safety of the elevators. No certificate posted in the either elevators but just a handwritten number, and max weight. According to Florida statute 399 "The certificate of operation must be posted in a conspicuous location on the elevator and must be framed with a transparent cover. (3) The certificate of operation shall contain the text of s. 823.12, relating to the prohibition against smoking in elevators. (4) In addition to subsection (3), the designation “NO SMOKING” along with the international symbol for no smoking shall be conspicuously displayed within the interior of the elevator in the plain view of the public." None of these were not posted. Hopefully this review gets some attention by the hotel management
