Lauren was very responsive and helpful, location is AMAZING. Perfect for the weekend of our wedding that was at the Cuban Club! Will likely rent again next time friends or family come into town!
The location was exactly as described and that pictures show. It's very convenient to all things in downtown Ybor. The loft was spacious, clean and had an overall awesome vibe.
Stayed for Womens Final Four! Location was Great..close to trolley...easy on and off. Great breweries and resturants in Ybor...and only a 15 min trolley ride to other areas in Downtown. Owner was qyick to respond to any questions.
This loft is a great spot to stay in Ybor. Second time at this location and it's always great - close to all the action, and easy to walk over to 7th Street. Great people watching from the balcony too.
Cool place 2 blocks from Ybor's main street (7th). A little loud on weekend nights, but that's to be expected. Convenient to the conference center with PLENTY of eateries, cigar bars, clubs within walking distance.
Guys trip. Great location, walking distance to everything we needed. Close to trolley stop for river walk. Gated parking was perfect. 20 minutes to Busch Gardens. Friendly roosters all round. Lol as
The property was everything we expected. We were in town for the Heritage Festival and everything including the event was a short walk. No car needed. The only recommendation is for lights on the outside stairwell and back door entrance so it could be better lit. It was hard to see the stairs and keypad for the back door. We would definitely stay again.
Location of the flat was great. Walking distance to lots of shopping and fun food and drink places. The flat as a very large living area (pool table I. The main room) and we loved sitting on the balcony with our drinks.
I do feel that the place needs a through deep cleaning. the bathrooms were not clean when we arrived. The dust bunnies were everywhere. This place is older and it has lots of character. With a little effort and elbow grease it could really be a top performer. One mention to stairway entrance- you really need motion lights back there. It is quite dangerous to go up or down in the dark. Over all -a fun experience- perfect for our wedding weekend activities.

Response from VrboOwner on 29 Mar 2020
Thanks for the review and glad you enjoyed your stay. I had the cleaning team do a separate deep clean after your comments about the dust bunnies, thanks for bringing that to our attention.
Also, the back patio has 2 sets of lights on each of the fans but I noticed after your stay that the light pulls were off so I just pulled them and the lights were back in business. Guests do have to flip the switch each night to put these on however...often times guests don't notice this BUT there are definitely lights back there if you turn them on each night.
About the host
Hosted by Lauren T
We love having this vacation rental property. We completely renovated the property in 2008, updating the kitchen, bathrooms and much more while still keeping the original charm of the building. We moved out of the property into the 'burbs' with our first child but are glad we were able to keep it so other guests can come stay and enjoy the city of Ybor!
Why they chose this property
Location, location, location! You will gasp when you walk in the door and see this hidden gem in the heart of Centro Ybor City. The 11 foot ceilings and skylights in the living room make it that much more fabulous then I've been able to capture in the pictures here.
What makes this property unique
Walk to everything in Ybor or hop on the trolley to Channelside and Downtown Tampa!
