The home is just as described. It was very clean when we arrived, tastefully decorated, and well equipped. The backyard was perfect for hanging out with a large pool and firepit. It is on a busy road but it didn't bother us at all when outside and inside was so quiet we didn't hear the road. The location is perfect - close to U of F, Publix, and great food.

The place was great and we had no real major issues. VRBO was having technical issues which made our communication with the host difficult. So the issue wasn’t even really with the host as much as the app was not cooperating. I would stay there again in a heartbeat!
