This was a great place to stay while visiting the Tarpon Springs area. The host was very responsive with any questions we had and made us feel very welcomed. The studio had everything we needed for our stay. This is an easy walk to the sponge dock area. Will definitely recommend this to anyone wanting a place to stay in this area!

Response from VrboOwner on 23 Jun, 2025
Thanks for your feedback, Jack. I’m really sorry to hear the neighborhood made you feel uneasy — that’s never the experience we want our guests to have. While the home is located in an older, mixed area, many guests have found it quiet, safe, and conveniently close to local attractions. We understand that the studio layout may not be for everyone, and we do our best to describe the space accurately in our listing so guests know what to expect. That said, we appreciate you giving it a try, and we’re taking your comments seriously as we continue to improve the guest experience.

Converted garage?

It was new and clean but had a dank smell and we didn't feel comfortable at night in the neighborhood.

Response from VrboOwner on 23 Jun, 2025
Thank you for your feedback, Sheri. I’m sorry to hear that the smell and the neighborhood made you feel uneasy. The unit is a fully permitted guest suite designed for comfort, but I completely understand that every guest has different preferences, especially when it comes to neighborhood feel. Many guests have shared positive experiences in the area, but we truly appreciate your perspective and will continue to look for ways to improve both the comfort and the overall experience for our future guests.

Lorsque je suis arrivé au condo, les lieux étaient impeccables. Ce studio 15x15 avait toutes les commodités et même plus. Il y avait de nombreuses attentions pour les voyageurs incluant même des petites crèmes pour le café. La communication avec les hôtes a été plus que parfaite. Le processus d’arriver et de départ étaient facile et identique à ce qui avait été écrit sur le site Web. Le wi-fi fourni était de bonne qualité. Le rapport qualité prix était très raisonnable et je tenterai sûrement de relouer du même endroit à mon prochain séjour.
