Tarpon Inn Hotel - Page 1

The only reason I booked this hotel was the proximity to downtown. I had hoped that the reviews were wrong or at least things were better.

Upon checking in at 3 pm, we were given keys to a room that had not been cleaned yet. After complaining to a very uncooperative front desk clerk we were checked into a different room. The vertical blinds on the big picture window do not close completely, and even though it faces the back of the hotel, people could see in if they wanted to. Do not get undressed in the room with the lights on.

On returning to hotel the next day after a day trip, we found that the maid had not cleaned our room, empty the garbage or leave fresh towels. We had to ask for clean towels. The room was cleaned one time during our three day stay.

There was no complimentary ice for the room. We were charged for it. The pool is still broken. It’s obviously not a priority to fix. The desk clerks were not very friendly, except one, and were generally too busy talking with hotel manager or smoking outside to actually help us with questions or concerns
