Just what we needed

It's hard to find a place for a family of five on a budget and this hit the spot. The location was close enough to anything we waited to do in the area.

Worst sleep of my life

We couldn’t even sleep together in the same bed we took turns on the couch, dishes had chunks of food, lights were out in the bathroom and hallway, killed a four cockroaches, had to wash the sheets they stunk, no dressers and no hangers but host sent 6 via DoorDash so my clothes stayed in my suitcase.

Listing Inaccurate

Overall, our stay was good, but there were some issues and the listing was inaccurate. Issues: The listing stated a queen bed, but it was a full. We were specifically looking for a queen or larger, so we would not have booked this property if the listing had been accurate. It also lists a hot tub, but there wasn’t one. The microwave was missing its handle, the stove was missing the knob to turn on the gas, and multiple lightbulbs were burned out or missing. There were no kitchen towels, drying rack, or dishwasher pods. There was no hand soap or washcloths in the bathroom. The host said the previous tennants were "rough on the place," so our experience may be unique to us. Cleanliness: The property smelled clean when we checked in, but the floors weren’t clean, as our feet and socks got dirty quickly. There was dirt and trash behind a nightstand, and several pieces of silverware had caked-on residue. The washing machine ring was moldy, and detergent pods were caked in the liquid detergent tray. The countertops, sinks, shower, and linens were clean. Pros: Great AC, the shower had hot water and good pressure, and the location is close to local attractions. Suggestions: Update the listing to be accurate. Provide a checklist for the cleaner to check lights, batteries in remotes (we had to swap some out), towel levels, the washer, etc. Get a longer shower curtain to prevent further water damage and mold. Leave directions for the washer.

Excellent Host!!!

Everything was very clean. Having the full size washer/dryer was so helpful. The Netflix was great. The shower had good pressure. Lots of hot water. My only recommendation would be to upgrade the beds. Thank you for being the most attentive host! Thank you for fixing our AC issue so promptly. This host really goes out of his way to make sure you are satisfied. We really appreciate your hospitality.

Mike was very informative and personable, and made himself available to us if we had any questions or concerns with anything! He’s also very knowledgable with the current events around the area, and also suggested many culinary attractions just a few miles away! We really enjoyed the house. It was very clean and easy to maintain, and the outside noises were normal from the neighbors, even the rooster across the street. We will definitely book with Mike when visiting Tampa next time! Thanks for everything!

Great stay, great price,

Had a nice time, the home was very comfy! It is located close to everything. Local restaurants, golf courses, gas stations, Publix, and less than 15 minutes to downtown. I stayed for almost 3 weeks and pretty much made it my home when i was there. Michael the owner was very hands on and accessible! He passed on TONS of good advice on where to go, what was available to do, and generally just a very nice person to deal with. When you call Michael answers! The 2 BR house has virtually a professional stove, new high efficiency front loading washer and dryer and new fridge to boot! The dishwasher made cleanup easy. The beds while not new were very comfy and it was easy to sleep in. You'll find the neighborhood composed of all groups of people, all waving hello when you pull into the drive which has gates to close behind you if you choose. There was no odor of cigarettes which was important to me! Secure locks on all the doors, nice cool AC, and nice blinds let you button up nicely at night with privacy. I'm already planning to stay there for all my subsequent visits to my Florida grandbabies. Dont let the low price fool you this is a great deal and I'm kind of fussy! 5*'s all around.
