Residence Inn by Marriott St. Petersburg Tierra Verde

8/10 Good

"We spent one evening. The staff were very friendly and polite. They truly seemed interested in accommodating our needs. The room was clean and comfortable. There are only two elevators and one of them was out of service for our entire stay which was inconvenient. The room had an individual air conditioning unit. Due to the age of the technology we woke up every time the air came on but it worked great. The view from our room was spectacular. We would stay here again. Overall a very positive experience."
