We loved staying here and we will definitely be back. We went to the wine and food festival and we needed something close by. This location was very convenient and we rode scooters to the wine festival each day. It was a super quiet and homie area and we will definitely be back!

Cute, clean, hosts very attentive to any needs or concerns. Could've used bowls, could not find any. Shower was great, bathroom kinda small but functional. Downtown Tampa not too far.

Hi Carrie thank you for your feedback. As you mentioned, we were very responsive so if at any time you would’ve mentioned needing bowls, you would’ve had them with no problem. Thank you for bringing to my attention because there was 4 there so I had no idea that they were no longer. I do see one pink soup bowl on top shelf still there. I will purchase more today. Thank you.

The host is wonderful, and the backyard is a dream! The apartment itself is quite small with low ceilings (I had to duck in the shower at 5’10”), but I felt safe in the neighborhood, and the location was nice - just a 15 minute walk to Armature Works!
