Nice place to stay with buddies

Nice place to stay. A little off the beaten path if you want to go to spring training baseball stadiums but the price reflected that. Not having access to thermostat is annoying. Just charhe an extra 10 per night to allow your guest thermostat access

The check-in time was 4:00 we got there at 5:00 the cleaning lady was still there until 6:00. The code on the door wouldn't work. There weren't towels in the bathrooms, we had to ask the cleaning lady since she was still there for towels. All the beds in the house except for the master bedroom we're awful. There were ants crawling on the counter in the kitchen. The master bathroom vanity light had one of four bulbs working, there was no light in the laundry room. It just was not a good experience

So sorry to learn of your inability to check in on time. Informed by the cleaning crew now that the group that checked out that day refused to check out till around 2pm when we threaten to invite the police over before they could vacate the premises stating their company booked for extra days which was not true. The home as you pointed out was still being cleaned and disinfected to be made for you to be able to take up residence. Cleaning lady said she explained this to your group and apologized for the late entry. The towels were all placed in the bedrooms. Furthermore, there is a closet filled with extra towels in the adjoining closet by the blue room. All you need do was ask if you needed additional towels. This would have been pointed out to you. As far as the light is concerned, if you notice there was any issue with the light, you could have brought it to our attention.The bulbs would have been replaced immediately. Sorry about the light. As far as ants when you got there is concerned, we are not responsible for when people rent and made the home a mess. We do not clean up the home during the stay till after guests check out. During their stay, they should cleanup after themselves. As you pointed out, the cleaning crew were still cleaning by the time you arrived. It was left in a mint condition when you actually checked in. Once again sorry for the late check in.

A Good Place to Stay

My four friends and I thoroughly enjoyed the rental in Clearwater. It was clean, spacious and comfortable except the beds were very hard -- everyone complained but me because I have back problems and hardness was no problem!! Recommend some consideration be given to changing the beds, the house number be made more visible and some kind of light be placed at the driveway entry -- it's hard to find the house at night.

Excellence!!

At first the last-minute timing to receive the code was scary but I realize that people have to secure their property. The place was immaculate, even with the air controlled. We used the fans. There were added surprises of some groceries and hand soap, that we normally had to take on our rental. Overall, we enjoyed the home and thank the people to allow our mini vacation a success!

Loved the bedroom areas each with their own bathroom. Couldn’t change the temp. With out calling so that was inconvenient. Waited over an hour for the code to get in cause we had to be in the driveway before she would give it out. But over all it worked out nice.

Mostly Very Nice

The house was very nice. Location was perfect. Size was perfect as we originally thought we had a big group (two of the cousins bailed). Communication with the owner was strained. Clearly a big stickler kinda owner. Signs all over the house saying what could and couldn't be done, were helpful but contributed to an oppressive environment. There were ants in the bathroom. I mean a ton of little tiny ants. We have pictures, I don't know how to post them here. But my brother is a big 24 yr old baby and he scared the hell out of us screaming about ants when he discovered them crawling on him and his stuff.

So sorry that you were not completely satisfied with your stay at our home. As for the ants, here in Florida as with any other parts of the country, during heavy rains, sometimes ants do try to get in, the prudent thing to do would have been to contact the owner and the issue would have been addressed. As for communications, I believe people should tell the truth always ! You wanted your sister to bring a dog with her at the last minute when on the booking site, it clearly stated NO PETS, hence not sure where poor communication came in. As you noted when you checked into our home "Hey. We just arrived. The house is beautiful and it doesn’t have that weird -------- smell. It smells like home." We appreciate honest comments.

Uncomfortable stay

Guest 1: Our stay at this location was not enjoyable at all. It says gated. However, the gate isn't in use. While the location was convenient, the aesthetic qualities were lacking. There were only sheer curtains (no blinds) in the house so at night we tried to stay in one interior bedroom. because you could see into the house. As a group of females, we did not feel safe. Next, there were strange noises/sounds coming from the attic on one side of the house. It sounded as if someone or something was walking and or dragging something. The owner sent someone out on the last day of our stay but was adamant it was a tree branch scratching the roof. Needless to say sleep was scarce. Finally, the washer sounded like it was possessed, there were sugar ants in the bedroom and bathroom on the same side of the house with the noises, the towel racks were flimsy in two bathrooms and kept falling down, the kitchen utensils didn’t seem to be clean (we ate out daily), and there were some strange droppings/shavings in one of the kitchen drawers. Suffice it to say we enjoyed Tampa, but would not stay in this property again. Would not recommend this property. Guest 2: Upon entry, we were met with a musty smell. The house was outfitted with air fresheners but they were empty. The house was hot. Paying an absorbent amount of money to rent the home, customers should be allowed to set the thermostat themselves. Having to contact the owner to adjust it remotely was a nuisance. The home was not cleaned prior to our arrival. There was hair on the beds, a dead spider on the sink in the front bathroom, ants in the back bedroom and questionable droppings in one of the kitchen drawers. Walking barefoot in the house was not an option as the floors were dirty. Our socks were brown by the end of the day. The towel rack in the primary bathroom fell down if items were placed on it. The towel rack in the front bathroom was broken off an unusable. Guest 3: All of the above and as a group of women, security was a huge concern. Thicker curtains should be installed to provide additional privacy. Especially because it is off a main road. It was supposedly set to 61 but the house was uncomfortable and thermostat stated at 78-80 degrees. As prior guests stated floors were dirty. Only Plus: Large living room

We appreciate your stay at our Home. Not sure how to respond to paranoia? We even called out Terminix to evaluate the concern voiced of someone walking in the attic.. which turned out to be false. As for the cleanness of the home, will allow prior occupants review speak attest to this. I personally stopped by, I was NOT informed the home had issues with cleanness just that someone was hiding in the attic ! How does someone hide in an attic and the temperature is very high as stated here? Is the person from another planet? When writing a review, you should attest to what you actually witness and not go and review someone elses statement before you write yours. Reviews should be done before making a reservation! Tell the truth when writing review.

Large living room

Plus: Large living room park across the street great for walks, would be great to have a bike. Minus- outside yard has rusted shed, not pleasant to look at sitting outside. large hole dug under shed (did see small animal one night) Missing : no mixer, no can opener(I purchased and left) no bar soap (did find liquid soap in other bathroom after I purchased soap) no wine glasses (purchased 8 and left) floor when cleaning up was dirty (didn't look like because it is grey) only there a few days.

Thanks for your stay at our home. a) If you are resident in Florida, there will be wildlife. There is NONE inside the home nor was there a hole in the home nor in the wall of the home. The yard was also well kept. Part of the price we pay for our Florida sunshine is to share with it with wild life !!! b) We never promised a bike. Had you contacted the host, a bike rental company would have been suggested for you. c) As for wine glasses ~ there is a large cupboard in the dinning area with all the wine glasses you want. Only thing that needed to be done was contact the host to find out if you had not been able to locate it. d) We do not provide bar soap.. liquid soap was provided in all of the bathrooms including shampoo for hair. If you wanted to use bar soap, you would have been advised to purchase yours. e) Not sure what a mixer is.. but if it is a blender, a blender was provided. Likewise can opener was there, only needed to call the host if you were unable to find it. f) Not sure about the floor, likely whatever you poured on the floor made it dirty. The cleaning crew mops the floor following each guest. Stay safe during this pandemic. God bless.

Good place for price

We had a good stay, the driveway was really hard to get into and out of with a large vehicle. The house overall is good, a few noticeable things were that a good amount of lights were burned out, several ceiling fans were not working at all. The bed in the master bedroom was hard as a rock and not comfortable to sleep in. The cleanliness was fair to say the least, master bathroom area was not cleaned very well. Toilet brush was laying on the floor when we arrived. The living room was very dark, the furniture was not very comfortable. The other beds were really comfortable, no complaints there. It was extremely hot and stuffy when we got into the house, so it was uncomfortable until the Air got circulated.

So sorry you were not completely satisfied with your stay at our home. It would have been nice to alert the home owner upon checking in with regards to non functioning lights which would have been immediately remedied. As for master bedroom bed, you're the only one to have complained it is not soft enough!!! Not sure what is expected when you commented that all the other beds were really quite comfortable. They are all the same mattress.
