“Tru By Hilton St. Petersburg Downtown Central Ave strikes me as a solid choice for visitors wanting to be near Tropicana Field and downtown attractions. I noticed the hotel's modern aesthetic and appreciated the complimentary breakfast with its unique pancake-making feature. While valet parking adds a layer of convenience, I think potential guests should be aware of the associated costs, but overall, it seems like a good option for those seeking a comfortable and centrally located stay.”
