Perfect home for our stay! Conveniently located near both the Jags stadium and Jacksonville Airport. The place had everything we needed, with easy access and tons of shops and highly-rated restaurants within walking distance. Will definitely choose this spot again next time I'm in town!
From the moment we arrived communication with the owners was excellent, literally because Brian was watering front yard & we had questions on the area. The apartment was perfect for us, it had all the kitchen necessarities & was convenient to everything in the area. Would return
