INTERIOR:
This place’s interior was surprisingly very nice (why surprisingly; see EXTERIOR below)….very clean, neat, nice room layout, pleasant wall/room furnishings, flawless air conditioning, Appliances worked just fine. Minor item, wall towel rack kept coming off the wall due to drywall screw inserts.
LOCATION:
Perfect travel location for quick access to major roads & highways. However, first impression of neighborhood was questionable relative to safety, although, we had no issues.
OWNER COMMUNICATION
Very responsive and detailed in booking prosess. Did not need to contact them during our 8-day stay.
EXTERIOR:
The exterior leaves a”lLOT” to be desired. Hence “you can’t tell a book by its cover”. Front door badly in need of paint and cushions on chair at entrance were terrible- ripped with stuffing all coming out-these 2 items alone would turn away renters if seen before booking. The white molding by door looks as if the door was jarred open in the past. Front lawn is merely small patches of grass, large patches of sand, and ant holes. Lastly a similar back yard, yet worse. All this would potentially turn away renters if seen beforehand.
FINAL TAKEAWAYS:
As Senior Citizens (upper 70’s) visiting our granddaughter at UT, and sight seeing the greater Tampa Area, this 8-night October 2023 stay served our needs just fine.
After seeing the “exterior” Andrew “neighborhood”, our opinion is that the rental was overpriced.
