  • Sweet Suites Deal *** Mainsail Suites Tampa

    For the first night of DW's Girls' Week Out I booked them a 1-bedroom suite at this place:

    Mainsail Tampa Suites Hotels: Tampa Corporate Housing Tampa Extended Stay Hotels

    for this:

    Summary of charges
    HotPricePerNight:$63.00
    Tax recovery charges and fees: 13.47
    Total price:$76.47

    They called last night to say that after a great dinner at Shells, they got upgraded to a 2-bedroom suite at this place, and it is a wonderful place.

    Today they called back to say they each got comped $13 breakfasts, then there was some public relations picture taking, then the offer that if you call Mainsail direct they will match the Hotwire rate.

    (I think there might have been a suggestion that I might mention this on the Internet, so I am. )

    Here's how I would do that:

    Do your Hotwire search and select Condos. It tells you what size . . . Studio, 1, 2, 3 bedroom, or more, and the price.

    Then call Mainsail directly, and tell them. I assume it will mean you will save the Hotwire fee . . . and maybe they will upgrade you.

    I lived here for about eight months when I had to work in Tampa and loved it! No elevators there, but the buildings are only 3 stories. Great location! Very clean, gated and secure. If you go out the back way you can get to restaurants and shopping. Front exit brings you to the highways...I'd stay there again in a heartbeat

            DW and her GFs stayed there again through Hotwire when they went down to take possession of our house. When we didn't close, and they needed another night, Mainsail gave it to them at the Hotwire price . . . I booked it at $58 plus fees.

            Yup, they paid $61.60 total.
