A great place to stay. The property was absolutely spotless. It felt like it had been very recently renovated with brand new TVs & appliances throughout the home. The A/C was great and will get you through those hot Tampa summers. Incredibly close to Busch Gardens. Simple check in & check out. Dana, the host, is a great communicator.

Very clean and well taken care of and had everything we needed, including coffee. The bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable, I cannot speak to the other bed because we did not use that room. We were centrally located close to everywhere we needed to be for the visit. The neighborhood is a bit run down, all neighbors we interacted with seemed very friendly.

We spent a week and a day here. Our host was very helpful; sending information ahead of time and also being very responsive to any questions we had during our stay. It was our “home base” while we did site seeing and also attended a couple spring training games during our stay. The house was more than spacious enough for the two of us, and even fine for accommodating a couple friends who stopped by while we were there. It was very clean and had all the basic needs of “home”. We cooked in several evenings and the kitchen had all the cooking and dining utensils needed. Overall, it was a great experience and we would rent this property again!

Comfortable and affordable

This is a great little townhouse very near Moffitt Cancer Center where my wife had a week of treatments. Rather than Drive every day from Ocala, we stayed here. It was very comfortable and affordable. It was less money than we would have paid for a motel nearby. Strongly recommend.

Location was convenient for us - neighborhood so so. Inside looked as it was presented but lr furniture was so so - not comfortable enough to sit and visit for a while. Adequate for the price. Minor improvements needed were mentioned directly to the owner. This old girl - me - didn't like tv access, so I depended on my phone for tv watching.

Great Place!! Would definitely stay again!!

This property was cozy and had everything we needed for a two night stay! Property is newly remodeled and everything was in great working order. Beds (and even the pullout couch) were comfortable. The neighborhood appeared a bit impoverished, but was quiet and in a good location. We walked to Busch Gardens and there were plenty of food establishments in close proximity. Communication with owner was easy and very responsive! Thank you Dana!

So Close to USF! Very Clean and Adorably Decorated!

My husband and I took his oldest daughter (19) and her boyfriend (20) to visit University of Southern Florida and stayed here. It was just perfect! Very close to USF, only an hour from the beautiful Anna Maria Island beach. Extremely clean and just like the pictures on the VRBO site. Full kitchen, comfy beds, nice bathrooms! Nice cold AC. Owner VERY EASY to communicate. It was always only minutes before I got a response. I was very impressed all around and if his daughter chooses USF you can be certain that we will rent here again if it is open when we visit her!

On the Expedia website, you will see views of the beach, a well-kept neighborhood, and a chic townhouse that supports a family going on vacation. In reality, there was no view to look at, the townhomes in the area were all run-down, including this one. The exterior of this home in particular had an unkempt lawn and gray splotches on the wall. This greatly disappointed me, as showing an unkept stay to my family, especially to my daughter, whom I dedicated this trip to, made it seem as though I did not put any thought into this trip. We thought that the backyard would have been better, only to be proven wrong even further. The backyard has a surplus of weed and insects, there were cracks, and overall, I did not feel comfortable exposing my family to the unpredictability of that part of home. For someone who wants their clients to communicate any issues with the utilities, and is open to improving these issues, the lister did not manage to fix that issue for the next clientele- which was us. This applies to the downstairs toilet seat that tilted to the left as someone got up, the stair railings that were loose, and the staircases that had dirt and grime on them. My daughter brought this up with me on Wednesday, but above us were signs of water damage. There just is not enough space to all of the issues associated with this place, so I will turn my review into a document.
