Clearwater Apartments

I am taking the time out of my busy day to share my amazing experience while staying at this Marriott. As soon as I arrived at my room 414 I realize that the blinds were open and I tried to close them and I couldn't! I tried to ask for help from any of the staff members and there was Linda and I asked her to help me with this issue as I was afraid I might damage anything. She was so hospitable and eager to help me immediately and she fix this issue for me. She cleaned my room to perfection and I am so grateful that she is working in this hotel and it's a valuable asset to this property. Since I was alone and didn't know much about the area both Michael Keating and Rob Williams were so knowledgeable and very helpful. Michael helped me with the trolley information and Rob took me to the beach very very early in the morning. Rob have the most positive attitude and he loves what he does. I could clearly see that he is the biggest star. His personality shines as big as his smile and he made me feel so safe taking me at the beach and bringing me back at the hotel. He made me feel as if he was my big brother protecting and keeping me safe. And to me safety means everything especially because I always travel alone. Cassandra was very interactive and gave me compliment about my shoes and even though I was not a guest at the restaurant she made me feel welcomed and she took her time to acknowledge me and I appreciate her so much. At last Samantha the front desk manager took her time to listen to all of my bragging about the great service provided by everyone above and wrote down everyone's names that I have encounter during my stay as well as being polite , understanding and so professional. From all my heart I thank each and everyone of the rock stars that made my stay so pleasant safe and I am so eager to come back again at the near future. I hope that everyone will be recognized by going above and beyond because they truly deserve all the recognition for all the hard work that they do everyday. Thank you.

The hotel is more than ten minutes' drive from Tampa beach, not very far. The lady at the front desk is super friendly, and the room is relatively big. Although it looks like it took a long time to decorate, it is very clean. There is an oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, etc. in the room, which is very convenient if needed. The hotel also provides free parking, which is quite cost-effective.

This hotel is a dump. The rooms look like something out of a movie about cheap **********s and their johns--old smelly carpets, broken furniture, door safety latch that was actually missing, bathroom fan like a Harley Davidson. There are so many better places to stay in Clearwater, and we wish we had. The last straw was that we were told to bring our dirty sheets and towels to the check-in counter because there wasn't any housekeeping service.

Holiday Inn has definitely upgraded their properties since the last time I stayed with them years ago! The suite was clean and spacious. The breakfast was the run-of-the-mill options with a few hot foods. I especially enjoyed the Dove products that are present in the bathroom and shower.

The hotel is very clean and the breakfast is very good. I am staying at this hotel for the third time. The service is very good. There is a heated swimming pool. It is very close to the shopping center. It is more than 10 minutes drive from the beach. Very convenient hotel.

While researching hotels, I visited this property a month before my arrival to make sure the accommodation would work for my purposes. At that time, I was shown a specific layout for the 1 bedroom queen beds configuration. The front desk attendant specified the description of the room that I should book when I made the reservation. I made the reservation based on their information and the room I was shown. A month later when I check in, I am given a room half the size of the one I was shown. I tell the front desk that it was not what I was told and I am unhappy with the room and I need the bigger room. The gas let me and told me that they had already given me the biggest room they had. I'm not kidding when it was literally half the size of the one I previewed. I walked the front desk attendance to the door of the room I was shown and was assured that those rooms are the same size and they couldn't be shown to me at that time because they were occupied. I had to cancel most of the event I had planned due to lack of space and lost revenue I would have earned giving a workshop to paying pupils. Complete bait and switch. Avoid this property.

We did not originally plan to stay here. We had booked a VRBO. It turned out to be a disaster. We had to look for a new place to stay on the evening we arrived. We called the 800 number for Marriott. They were very helpful in finding this location not too far from where we were. From the time of our arrival until check out 5 days later we had a fantastic stay. Latonya at the front desk was very helpful during the day. So was Adam the night agent. The hotel is very clean and conveniently located not far from the beach, stores and restaurants. Everyday of our stay breakfast was provided and well maintained by Bryan and his staff. The area was always clean and well stocked, despite having a baseball and cheerleading team staying at the same time. We took full advantage of the BBQ grills outside. Latanya would help us to get the BBQ box they provide at the front desk. It had seasonings, spatulas, oven mitts, tongs, everything you might need. We also used the kitchen to prepare meals at the hotel. This worked out great and made it easier to accommodate food allergies and picky eaters. We would highly recommend staying here. Thank you to the great staff for making our stay so pleasurable.

We stayed at this property several times in the past month. It is clean and relatively quiet - considering it is right net to a very busy street (49th St N). If you have a choice - I would choose a room closer to the elevator - since there is only one elevator on one side of the building. The rooms were large with a cook top and a full size fridge. The only breakfast option was coffee - VERY strong coffee. There is a Circle K right across the street - use the crosswalk - it is much safer.

The hotel itself is just ok. It's generally pretty scruffy. It has a VERY high occupancy rate and worn and grimy furniture is a product of that turn-over. With the exception of the manager the staff is especially friend, helpful and professional. The breakfast is quite good for a budget hotel. I had a suite and it was very roomy. The towels were plentiful and fluffy. The bed was firm. The sofa and chair were both ”well-used”. Separate semi-kitchenette counter, sink, and refrigerator. The refrigerator was missing some interior parts i.e. a bar on the door and the drain so water accumulated in the bottom of the frig. I've stayed there twice and would again because it's reasonably clean and.the price is great for St. Pete area.
