About the area

Tampa

This apartment is located in Palmetto Beach, a neighborhood in Tampa, and is near theme parks and on the waterfront. MidFlorida Credit Union Amphitheatre and MacDill Air Force Base are cultural highlights, and travelers looking to shop may want to visit Tampa Riverwalk and Westshore Plaza Mall.

The hosts were friendly and helpful. Readily available when needed. The room was quaint and cute, TV, WIFI Shower worked well. Bed was comfy. The property is close to the airport and very close to cruise terminal. Lots of shops and restaurants, though I believe you would need a car. My only suggestion is to place a small table where the microwave is located, so guests can have their meal. . It was a pleasant experience.

Small but Nice
We enjoyed our stay in the Harper Studio. The room is small but had everything we needed.

Not set up for 2 people. The double bed was boxed in by two walls and a dresser making it difficult to get out of the bed for the person sleeping closest to the wall. Mattress had sunk in the middle so both of us rolled to the middle. It would be fine for a single person.

Pre-Cruise Stay
We needed a place to stay the night before a cruise and this was a great spot. It was very clean and close to the port. Even though it was a garage turned studio, it was comfortable and had everything we needed for our short stay. Check in and check out were quick and simple. A good alternative to the high price hotels in the area.

Was a unique opportunity to stay at a small villa-like studio. Was small as anticipated, but quiet for the most part. It was close to the port for our cruise.
