Extended Stay America Premier Suites - Tampa - Gibsonton - Riverview

My stay was not entirely what i had expected. The property is very nicely maintained, has a wonderful staff and no pool. At a previous stay in the area in February, i actually went to this property and spoke with the personnel there. I explained my particular requirements, my not so pleasant experience with thei property in Brandon. The room i was shown and met my requirements, not the one i was in this trip. The breakfast stated as being offered daily, later changed to grab and go style, this was okay but for 9 days, a chioce of the same 5 items to eat and two drinks got to be a little boring. The rooms are a suite, refrigerator, stove, sink and microwave equiped however there is no pans, plates or utensil"s. Fortunately there is a Wal-Mart a block away to creatively shop at, items bought would be microwaveable and what you don't use is a waste. Showering, I require a hand held shower head which i explained and requested, the in room shower had no hand shower head. The rooms closet area had a free standing wall that was not square, it set at an angle. The door to the bathroom was set to open fully into the room, i found myself trying to catch it most of the time so it wouldn"t hit the shelf on the wall behind it, although it was designed to make that impact. Very nice place, with great staff, great food and a movie theater next door and very close to my event location. I am not sure that i would stay here again, being a yearly traveler.
