A short guide to Brandon

Brandon is a residential suburb that lies east of downtown. Nearby, blue-ribbon agriculture is on display annually at the Florida State Fairgrounds. South of Brandon in Apollo Beach, manatees flock by a waterside power plant when the water temperature cools. The aquatic mammals are best seen at Tampa Electric’s Manatee Viewing Center, which is also a haven for butterflies and birds.

Hampton Inn Tampa Brandon 2009.10.09
Not recommended Trip type: All Others "Needs Improvement"

Reviewed by Tom of Crossville on Oct 9, 2009

It was in a different location considering most other Hampton's. The hotel was having some work done on some of the rooms, so there was construction stuff around. The front desk clerk was not to attentive to our needs. We asked they replace a burnt out light in bathroom and it never got done. It was just a sloppy experience that we will not have to endure again. There are many other choices in the immediate area.

Here at the Hampton Inn Tampa/Brandon we’re always working to improve our product and services and we appreciate you taking the time to share your experiences. There is no excuse for why you did not have your light bulb replaced and I have discussed the issue with our Maintenance Department to ensure we avoid similar problems in the future. Additionally, the construction is scheduled to be completed very soon and we would like to invite you back to try our fresh, new rooms designed with a contemporary combination of color and pattern, the next time your travel plans bring you to Brandon, FL.

Not recommended Trip type: All Others "Worst place we have ever stayed"

Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jul 14, 2009

Floor we stayed on was being renovated and smelled old and moldy. Did not have to even use our door swipe card as the door just pushed open and could not be locked. Was given another room and all room doors we passed looked like they had been forced open with a crow bar. Vending/ice machines on our floor was off limits due to the rennovations - felt this should have been mentioned at check in. Only other vending/machines was on another floor and smelled like a 50 year old ash tray. Would never stay here again, and recommendations to others would not be favorable.

Thank you for taking the time to provide comments regarding your stay this past July; it is through such candid feedback that we’re able to improve our hotel. We are shocked and dismayed to learn of your experience. This is certainly not representative of the level of service we strive to extend to our guests. It sounds like your problems with the door lock and vending machine were related to the renovation and we sincerely apologize for your inconveniences. We would love a second chance to exceed your expectations the next time travel plans permit.

Not recommended Trip type: Business "Disgusting Hotel"

Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 19, 2009

This hotel was not clean, bed sheets had blood, toilet had ring marks. In addition, they did not have hot water on the day I was checking out - I requested for a discount and they lady at the front desk said it's a maintenance issues. I asked if the block all ran out of hot water and she said not. I think they should had taken better care of their heating system and I feel I should be compensated. Don't stay there and save yourself the skiveness.

We regret to hear about your dissatisfaction during the stay with us in February, and are thankful you took the time to discuss the disappointment you experienced. Your feedback is essential to our future success! Unwelcome problems can always arise, but our goal is to have them addressed promptly by staff members so our guests are not inconvenienced. No hot water is certainly a frustrating problem and we regret that it was not resolved for you in a timely manner. The cleanliness issues with your bed sheets and toilet are unusual and certainly not the standard of our hotel, please know your comments are taken very seriously, as these types of problems are absolutely not tolerated. Please accept our apologies.
