The kitchen features a bar to dine at, a refrigerator, bult in induction cooktop, coffee maker, toaster, air fryer, microwave, and essentials like salt/pepper, oil, tea, coffee, creamer, sugar, etc. We do include a welcome gift of pastries to get you started on your first morning.

**We offer one of the most affordable rates for a one bedroom within walking distance to the downtown restaurants/bars, shops, and entertainment.
**There is no pet fee, no additional person fee, only a $60 cleaning fee. Guests are not asked to do laundry/cleaning etc. as housekeepers will take care of it upon check out. Each apartment is cleaned by professional housekeepers who are paid by the cleaning fee with no markup for the owner.

About the host
Hosted by Jill
In 2021 I purchased the Historic Martin house in downtown Ocala. After months of renovation, I opened it up for guests to enjoy. I have been in the rental industry for years, and always look to have happy guests. Thank you for considering the property.
Why they chose this property
The historic district is full of charm and character. I love to walk a few minutes downtown to eat at the wonderful restaurants, shop in the boutiques and listen to live music. The architecture of each home is completely different than the next making for an interesting eclectic collection of homes.
What makes this property unique
The suite is a great value located in a great downtown historic neighborhood. Guests have parking, a kitchen, living room, bathroom, large bedroom, deck and shared pool deck all steps from downtown.
