Hotel Alba Tampa has a charming boutique style and is beautifully designed both inside and out, but my experience was marred by several issues. The room cleanliness left much to be desired, and the television problems were incredibly frustrating. While the staff attempted to be helpful, it felt like management overlooked many concerns that could enhance the overall stay.
