We booked the Cordova Inn when we had to make a quick trip to St. Petersburg to visit our sister who is very ill. The hotel is old; pictures of the lobby and rooms looked quaint. I did not see anywhere that there was no elevator so we were surprised when we had to carry our luggage up and down from the third floor. No one offered to help. The room itself was adequate, but the bathroom was so tiny, you could barely stand in it. The lights were difficult to figure out, the TV remote buttons were worn and barely worked. We were exhausted from being at the hospital all day, and really did not appreciate all these little inconveniences. There was also construction noise in the morning as they are adding onto the hotel. Fortunately, we were able to move to my relative's apt. for the rest of our stay. The coffee bar in the lobby was very good for a light breakfast, so that was the one positive during our stay.

The Cordova is a great hotel, it has a nice old world feel with all the modern conveniences that you might need. I found everything clean and the area quiet. The staff are friendly and very helpful. I’m looking forward to staying there again whenever I visit Tampa or St. Petersburg area

Nice effort to preserve the old hotel atmosphere, great staff. Lamp didn't work and alarm went off at 5, which suggests a need for better attention to maintenance and housekeeping.

The property had some nice historic features and boogie areas, but there were many underwhelming things that overshadowed them. First it was under construction so the ground floor windows had blackout shades that could not be opened for daylight so you felt like you were in a small cave and there was a frefrigerator with a microwave sitting on top, just sitting on the floor, which felt like a college dorm room. The staff was a somewhat rude and not very welcoming.

This is a boutique hotel in every aspect! There are no modern amenities at all. No elevator, window unit air conditioners, no place to store your luggage or drawers to unpack. The claw foot tub is adorable but very inconvenient. The shower gel, shampoo, conditioner were on the back of the toilet because there is NO bathroom storage! Only a pedestal sink with no counter space, no where to put a bar of soap! I am glad we only stayed two nights. It looks like they are building a new boutique hotel Next-door but for now this is it! There was a small coffee maker, a microwave and a small refrigerator but they were plugged in to the loosest outlet I was scared to use it! Location is great very walk able! Unfortunately the inconveniences of no where to put clothes or suitcase, small not usable bathroom space for getting ready, and the dirtiest windows over ever seen makes this a place I will not return to!

Property being currently renovated! Noisy! Room next to staff storage room! Toilet was unseated! Barely fit in the shower! Coffee maker was poor! Cable TV had poor reception! Parking was a block and a half away! Staff was very helpful and friendly and at $300/night I would hope so! Go somewhere else!

A Disappointing Boutique Hotel
The pictures online showed such a picturesque boutique hotel. I booked it for a surprise weekend for my husbands birthday. It was not. It was old and had poor amenities. In our room there was a window air conditioner that blew directly on the bed and kept going on and off every few minutes 24/7! The window coverings were awful. Some didn't work. The bathtub only had hot water out of either faucet and the clawfoot bathtub itself, while inviting, was chipped and appeared dirty. The windows were very dirty. We only saw one or two employees during our stay, but did get a sales call about joining the hotel chain. Parking was free but a block away. The construction next door started at 7 am, even on the holiday. There was no elevator. We asked for a first floor room and was told it was not available in our category. Overall all a very disappointing stay.

To start you will get several pushy phone calls to attend a membership seminar to join while you are staying there. Check in is a two hour window. 4-6. We checked in at 6:30 and they just leave your key out. You need to pay at a parking garage down the road and figure out the reimbursement when you checkout. We got in our room and there weren’t blinds on the windows. We tried calling the emergency line and they said there was nothing they could do. They said they were at full capacity and I shouldn’t have booked with a third party. The next morning after we hung towels over the windows they moved our room. They don’t actually rent bikes like it says. They are in the middle of a renovation. There are much better hotels in the area.

They have nighttime security apparently but the security alarm was going off from 5 AM to 7:30 AM. The bartender at “The Scott” was cleaning up at 8:30 pm when the bar closes at 10:00 pm and I was rushed so I just didn’t get a drink. The rooms are really cute. The decor is really cute. Jaleesa at the front is very helpful. The morning drinks at “The Scott” were pretty awful even though the female barista was very nice. There was also a used bandaid in my first room (I later got switched to a second room which was much better but the lamp didn’t work). Also parking was TERRIBLE! It was like a 5 minute walk in a sketchy garage. Atleast the hotel gives you a parking pass so you can park for free. Go check in before you park so you can get the pass.
