Island Grand at TradeWinds
I got a bad taste from this trip because I was hit with a $55 per night for amenities and $25 to park a car. After paying this most of the activities we had to pay extra for. It was difficult to get down from the room limited elevators and a long confusing walk to the stairs.

Ramada by Wyndham Tampa Westshore Airport South
Staff was very nice. Rooms were nice just property could use an update. Location was great in the middle of Clearwater and St Petersburg so we got to enjoy both places. Would definitely stay at this location again.
