The Best!
I stay at the Tampa Marriott Waterside every year for the Florida Music Educator's convention. All my colleagues and parents of all state kids stay there too. It's the best hotel in Tampa.
I usually go there with my husband and he deals with the parking and check in while I go to the convention. This year, however, I went alone. The valet, though packed with cars, was efficient. I was in a really crummy mood cause I got lost with all the one way streets in Tampa but the valet and check in staff managed to cheer me up before I went on my way.
I had a HUGE comfy bed as I always do. Fluffy mattress and lots of pillows. Soft cooshy comforter. Ahhhhhh! The room service was outstanding. I'm a big fan of fast and tasty room service. In many hotels it can take 45 minutes or longer. So after I called my order in (black and blue burger and a couple of beers and a cheesecake) I sat in a nice hot tub. The food came while I was soaking.... in about 20 minutes. I had to answer the door soaking wet with a towel wrapped around me. The delivery guy was very professional. Dropped off my food as if I was fully and normally clothed. This was the second best room service I've ever had... second only to the Royal Pacific in Universal Orlando.
I will stay at this hotel every time I go to Tampa. I'm already looking forward to my next year's stay in January. (Already have it booked too.)
