The AC Hotel - Steer Clear for the Price
Recently stayed around 5 nights at the AC Clearwater, and to say I was disappointed by the amenities is an understatement. For a place that charges around $200+ a night it was filthy from the second we got there, the first thing I noticed was actual jizz on the curtains to the balcony. After settling in for the night we tried to get Netflix on the TV as it was advertised on their website, lo and behold, they do not have Netflix despite advertising it as a perk for staying at their hotel. No one is at the front desk, like ever. Whether its 6 in the afternoon or noon, you have to get lucky to find staff. You are better off periodically calling the front desk from your room to see if anyone is there. Laundry service ONLY operates on weekdays and is paid. The first TIER of the breakfast buffet is $20 per person not including gratuity, parking is $40 a night. The rooftop and poolside lounge are closed unless staffed (the doors will be locked as well incase you wanted fresh air). The poolside bar isnt open any later than 6, and the rooftop bar is almost always going to be closed due to weather. Only two full sized water bottles will be in you room despite the length of your stay, and to get any more water during your stay, you must contact room service for two more 8 fl oz water bottles, which will magically spawn in your room after you leave to get gatorade or something.
The only saving grace about this place was the bartenders, who were nothing short of amazing. Everything else about this place sucked pretty bad, save your money, dont stay at the AC.
