Very nice location and very clean. Everything was great in the house. Sometimes the bedroom would be very hot but that was easily fixed by opening the door because the ac worked throughout the house. Not much storage for things but can easily make it work. Overall a great place to stay with no complaints

Quiet, clean & comfortable

Our stay was quiet and comfortable. The property was exactly like advertised. It was on the corner of a quiet neighborhood, just a couple blocks from coffee and food. I would definitely recommend this property.

A/C more than effective. Should have instructions for thermostat for heat and a/c. Thermostat logo says Alarm which is very confusing. The two weeks we had cold weather in the 30's/40's the unit was cold. Both doors need weatherstripping both top and bottom. Host was very nice as were all people I spoke with. Smells from one unit to the other share smells, i.e., cooking and marijuana smoke. Also from neighbors. However, would stay here again if there was a comfortable outdoor chair and table to sit in. The wooden chair provided was built in 1960. I'm from MN and want to sit outside. Unit next to me had two rocking chairs which were rarely used.

We stayed 3 nights and were overall pleased with this property. Suggest adding another bedside table (compact is fine - just big enough for a cell phone and glasses), and to add one or two luggage racks. We really don't like leaving our luggage on the floor, and there is no place to put clothes away. The kitchen is well equipped - we appreciate having nice wine glasses!

Very clean, great location, awesome hosts

I'm in Tampa often for work. It's important that where I stay is located conveniently to my office and to downtown. This room fit the bill perfectly. The place has ample space, has everything you would need for an extended stay and has hosts that are great communicators. I completely enjoyed my stay there and would definitely stay here again. The property description was spot-on and as advertised.
