Only issue I have with this place is housekeeping. When we checked in there was 2 “housekeeping” staff in pajama pants and sweat shirts. Seems unprofessional to me. Room are not cleaned during your stay, even if you put the card on the door that says “ clean my room”. That’s a first for me.

The double suite was very spacious. The beds and pillows very comfortable. Couch bed was not comfortable and barely had padding on the couch bed. I had a reservation for 5, however towels in the suite was for a set of 2. I needed to ask for more towels.

Thermostat did not work, so no heat when it was 36 degrees outside. The sink didn’t have a faucet or spigot just three empty holes. I would never stay there again.

This is quite an upscale but older hotel. Our room was great and recently remodeled. The bed was very comfortable. The suite had 2 rooms but difficulty getting the heat transferred uniformly to the bedroom and bathroom. We had reserved a handicap room, but we arrived and were told none available. So with my wife using as walker, we navigated to the 2nd floor of the distant building. Entry was only allowed through the front entrance so we had a long way to luggage our luggage. Breakfast could have been good but eggs, sausage and bacon were.brought cold to service area and dumped into heated servers as we arrived at 6:55am. So we loaded our plates and heated them in our room. A good hotel could be great with a little more effort and consideration.

For the area and price it’s a good hotel

This hotel does have potential to be a great place but there is no food on site or bar thry have a place for it but empty. The pool area and game area are nice pool not heated so only good in summer and thry had a great sitting area outside with heaters but they never turned them on with it being mainly outdoor space for people to get out of there rooms they should entertain making it comfy and inviting. The landscape is beautiful and tropical the rooms are older but remodeled the cleanliness of rooms is just ok walking in mirrors were dirty, dust on walls and beds. Beds are small but not bad. Hope you get quite people next to you we were not so lucky all night music and yelling.

I liked how each suite had a sitting room inbetween the "oasis" central area and the bedrooms - I bet it cut down on a lot of extra noise. The central oasis was a lot of fun and kept the kids contained and happy. The staff went out of their way to help us with our requests. The only negative thing I can think of was the sausage at the continental breakfast was served ice cold. But there were other things to eat.

We were in Tampa during a cold, rainy few days and having a comfortable suite with two TVs and a sofa, kitchen, table, etc made the stay so much nicer and bearable. Everything at Oasis Bay Suites in remodeled and done very nicely. It feels new and was kept very clean. The breakfasts were different each day. On the first, it was very minimal with no sausage or bacon. On the second day, there were eggs, sausage, and bacon, and a better variety of other choices, including yogurt. I have no idea why this was so variable. They didn't advertise a lift, but there are three around the facility. We were very pleased with our stay and would recommend it.

Not worth the cheap stay you wont be able to sleep

Checking in she asked us if we could want to upgrade to a king bed we said no we will stick to two queen beds. We get our keys and the women tells us how to go around to get to our room. We leave the lobby get into our car to go where she told us to go. We park and unload, turns out all the gates are locked and the only way to get to our room is to go through the lobby which she never said. We load the car up again and go around to the lobby to walk to the other side of the hotel to our room. We finally get to our room and behold we have just a king bed. It was already late and we drove a long time so my wife said that our daughter can sleep on the pull out couch. We get settled and are about to take showers and it turns out there was only one towel. So I went back to the lobby and ask for towels. I was told that it would be ten minutes before she could grab towels for us. I said no problem went out to my car and came back. Waited almost 20 mins then she returned with towels and I wasn’t the only guest waiting for towels either. If you want a quiet hotel this isn’t the place for you. They are playing music in the common area in the middle of the hotel all night so you will heard it all night. They also have a light outside of the slider that’s in the room that will not turnoff all night that will make your room very bright all night. Now I know why the deal was so cheap. Jokes on me n my family I guess. Oh and the stay was 10 dollars more than they said it was suppose to be.

The staff was extremely friendly. Check in and check out was very easy. Located close to restaurants and Busch Gardens. The free breakfast was pretty decent. I would definitely stay there again.
