Absolutely horrifying. Roaches, blood on the shower curtain, needle/syringe under the bed. Run far far away from this place.

This is the worst hotel I’ve stayed at in my entire life. No offense, but the pics make it look like a cute, tropical little motorlodge. In fact, it’s a decrepit hellscape. I am very low-maintenance, but: * NO HOT WATER!! * 4 generations of caulking over other caulking, rather than scraping and replacing * No coffeemaker in room, and 1 of 2 front desk coffeemakers are broken. Remaining is K-cup, by request only * Was my room even cleaned? * Terrible WiFi speed; virtually nonexistent * No late checkout * Terribly uncomfortable beds * Common spaces (conference room, eg) looked like a refugee processing center with water-stained drop ceilings * Horrible ventilation in rooms - I woke up early and it was as sticky as sleeping in an RV with the windows closed and no auxiliary power running * Elevator out of order, NOT HANDICAP ACCESSIBLE. How is this legal? * Hotel not walkable; terrible location on busy, noisy highway with nothing around * Reusing RedRoofInn’s WiFi * No breakfast I totally got duped on the photos. As I said I’m low maintenance, but this is like if ex-cons illegally reopened a condemned RedRoof Inn and just pocked the cash. Literally the worst hotel stay of my life in any country. Wow.

The hotel was being renovated. But the renovations were haphazard. From what I saw there were workers renovating two rooms on the main floor. On the second floor, trim had been primed but not painted. The stucco on the walls were patched, but not painted. No one was using the pool. The water was colder than the water at the beach. There was no maid service. I had to ask for clean towels. When I asked for maid service on the weekend, I was told the hotel did not service rooms on the weekend, under their eco-policy. How not changing sheets, putting out fresh towels, or emptying trash would saves the environment was not explained. Despite this I noticed two staff cleaning rooms on the second floor on Sunday. There were no phones in the rooms. I was told the phones were removed for renovations. This could be a problem in the case of an emergency. There was no breakfast area. They had a Keurig coffee maker in the lobby. They wanted $3 US for a pod

The staff was friendly. The room was dirty, had holes in the walls, the sink didnt drain properly, and it had a musty smell. The property rents rooms to drug addicts who live there. Very shady. Had i known, i would have stayed elsewhere with my children

Rooms were spacious, not overly clean, pool area was nice, but we had the worst kids behaving terribly in the pool. One night came home from dinner and the police, ems and fire departments were there. Who knows what happened??

The worst hotel/motel I have ever stayed in! The room was filthy floors we sticky and dirty. We stayed for 4 days and we asked to have room cleaned but no one did anything! The beds were not made and the garbage was never emptied. We had to do it ourselves! Disgusting!!!!

The staff were very helpful but don’t stay here. This place is a dump. It had a smelly smell and the doors all looked like they’ve been kicked down. Our room has holes on the wall. Felt like I was staying at a motel.

I have stayed here once before. This is a hotel in transition and I mean transition

Place looks decent enough online, but it’s not. There’s mold in the shower and on the corners of the room. Paint is falling off the walls. Pretty sure none of the sheets were clean, or there was just a muggy moist feel to the whole room. There are permanent residents there with whole families and babies screaming. One of the residents, that work there as well, was in a screaming match with the front desk lady about how bad the place was. Sketchy outside of the motel at night.

I checked-in 1 hour early as I had somewhere to be and was hoping to leave my luggae in the room instead of in my car. When I returned late that evening, I noticed there was garbage in the room and the toilet was dirty. The room also had a desk, but no chair. I only booked this room, as I needed to get some work done between personal excursions. I asked the front desk for a chair and was told "it isn't a given" that all rooms with a desk would come with a chair. I had a broken foot and was told to come back to the front desk in the morning (after 9am) to see if I could get a chair then. Considering check-out was at 11am that didn't leave me any time to do the work I needed to. I wasn't asking for much but apparently an expectation of a clean room and the furniture that usually comes with it was too much. I do not recommend.

Decent hotel. Stayed for 8 nights and didn't have any major problems. The shower had mold all over it and there were holes in the wall. The floors definitely need vacuumed and mopped because the bottoms of our feet were black from just walking around out room. I understand that the hotel is trying to be more sustainable, but it would have been nice to have our room cleaned a couple of times during our stay. Staff was friendly and the pool area was beautiful. The hotel is doing some renovations so it's not the nicest place, but we got what we paid for. Overall we had a good time.

We knew that for the price we paid, we wouldn’t be getting much. Our room seemed sticky and dirty. The bed skirt had stains all over it, the door knob was missing to the closet with the hangers, there were stains on the wall, and hairs stuck to the bedside tables. There was trash shoved in the pocket where a tissue box is supposed to go in the bathroom. The dresser that held the tv was busted at the bottom, and there was dirt and such under the desk. I even had my husband check for bed bugs because I was so grossed out, luckily the mattress had a cover on it. We took wipes and wiped down that we would touch and they were dirty after wiping. And there was this smell, we couldn’t tell if it was cleaning products, or what. For a king room, you’d think there’d be a small table and a couple chairs but there wasn’t so we had to eat breakfast in our bed. There’s more than enough space for one. Honestly, we were very glad that we only got the hotel to sleep in while attending an event in St. Pete. We know it’s under renovations, so hopefully things improve once they’re done.

It appears that there are a lot of issues with the condition of the property. There was ceiling paint peeling down and the curtain looked like it was detaching from the ceiling, There was a tile from the wall detached, and it looked like the paint was peeling from some kind of water damage. They say they are renovating but I have seen no evidence of such things.

Do not stay here! Very unclean. Conditions around property were horrible. Our flight was delayed and we didn’t get in until 4am. Requested late checkout and they gave us 30 minutes more. What a joke. Never ever again!

Tropical Palms is a 1 star facility. The rooms are as basic as any I've ever stayed at. It's old and not at all updated. That said, it's very inexpensive as compared to area hotels which was what I was looking for. Like 2-300$ less a night so if you book hear you get exactly what you paid for. A place to sleep.

We were very disappointed with this overall. Many issues so many that we’re only gonna name a couple. This place needs to be torn down and rebuilt Ceiling fans do not work exhaust fans do not work mold in bathrooms The beds were terrible and -10

Very run down. Staff were friendly and location to airport is good.

The room was partially renovated. The floor wasn’t finished being laid. The wallpaper was peeled and had mold. No cover over the electrical outlet-live wires showing. Shower was very mildewed and needed to be re tiled. The two people we met were nice and the bed was clean. Our room/floor looked like it was partially renovated or forgotten to get finished.

Cats and people screaming in the hall or room next door 1-3 every morning. Overall needs a visit from a cleaning company.

Hotel was an absolute dump, there were bed bugs in our bed, we ran out as soon possible. And canceled. We want our money back

The room was not like it showed online. I was told the room i was booking looked over the pool and it was not. The room smelled like cigarettes. They moved me to another one, that ones bathroom was not working. Shower was in bad shape and the water controls was hard to adjust the water. I end up sleeping at a friend's.

Rooms were dirty Floors nit clean, tables tops, even the tv looked like it had been wiped by a dirty rag

The pool was nice! The staff trued to be helpful. The room definitely could and should have been cleaner. Telephones in the rooms would have improved safety and ease for a wake up call instead of a knock on the door.

Was disappointed.It could be a nice hotel but 😥

Our first room had bugs and very sticky floors. We were moved to a new room, but that one had sheets that weren’t clean (there were little hairs on the bed and the bed wasn’t made), a sticky floor, beat up furniture, and everything in the bathroom was falling off the walls. There were holes in the wall and you could feel springs in the mattress. Staff was nice but this place was a total dive. We only stayed because we couldn’t get a refund.

Great short stay, walls are not sound proof but still slept well!

Dirty and old, bathroom gross

Unable to check in as you over booked and we were left on the curb. you owe me a100% refund as we unable to book any other hotel. You did not notify us regarding the cancellation. where is my refund?

did nit like the smell and dirty room

The desk staff was very friendly and accommodating. Arrived early and check-in wasn't until 4p, so decided to explore the area and it's beaches. They were nice enough to store our bags behind the desk. Came back mid-evening to finish check in. Got to the 3rd floor and it was like we were in a completely different hotel. It was like an old run down building you see on tv. Paint is cheap by the way. The smell was terrible. The room was worse. The furniture was old, wobbly, painted black and everything was sticky. The bathroom was dirty and so old. Shower was the worst and barely worked. It was so dirty and didn't drain. Yuk! The beds were just as bad. They were not comfortable and they made so much noise they would wake you up. I've never experienced any beds like them. Not to mention the cockroach we saw in the morning!! Where there's one there are always more. Let me just say that, "undergoing a huge renovation" is no excuse for uncleanliness!!! DO NOT STAY HERE!! It is cheap, but I would not stay here again if they have me the room for free, and I've stayed in plenty of cheap hotels in my days. I almost never write a review, but I felt that I needed to warn others to steer clear!!

Cockroaches in the room and unpleasant odors. A big difference from when it used to be a Red Roof Inn.

this hotel was nothing like the photo. Yes they had a pool but cloistered in center. No trees, on a busy street. Had balconies that I don't feel safe with. Different color and style of building. Shoddy inside. Maybe clean but I had my doubts. I couldn't control the internal air. People were very nice.
