Cozy Home near Busch Gardens / Adventure Island / USF

You were perfect guests we recommend to any host. Thank you!

You are among the best guests we've ever had. You also were kind and understanding during Hurricane Milton when it disrupted everyone's plans.

Hi Barbara, thank you for your feedback and for letting us know what you experienced. I’m glad the check‑in information was helpful and that you found the house cute, and I’m sorry the neighborhood and some aspects of the home didn’t meet your expectations. We take the items you mentioned seriously. Our team follows a strict cleaning checklist before every guest, but we hear you about the bathroom grout and the loose tiles. We did replace the bathroom grout before our next guests. We will fix the loose tiles in the next few days. The listing does not include a dishwasher, and we’ll make that clearer in the listing description and photos, so future guests aren’t surprised. Thank you again for staying with us. John

Thank you for your review. As you pointed out the listing is accurate and we appreciate your honesty there. The 1 star does not however reflect the listing but your opinion about the surroundings and the safety of the listing, the latter of which we disagree with, as previous reviews attest. If the listing were as you depicted it, we would not receive many excellent reviews. The only safety issues we have ever had were because guests threw a party at our listing, violating our house rules, not due to external factors, which we do not control anyways. We continue to assess how to improve the listing and will take your feedback into consideration. Thank you again for choosing to book with us. John

Hello Summer, I’m sorry your stay didn’t meet your expectations—especially around the smell, feeling unsafe, and the bed comfort. We take these concerns seriously. For transparency, our team follows a strict cleaning checklist before every guest and the home was cleaned prior to your arrival. Our listing photos accurately reflect the space as it is and are kept up to date. After your stay we completed a professional deep clean and odor treatment, made additional ambiance improvements. We’re also planning cosmetic updates to address the items you mentioned. Thank you again for staying with us. John

We are surprised by such a low rating, which suggests something out of our control affected your stay. We have the listing cleaned and ready for all our guests, and while we don't get things right 100% of the time, we cannot understand why you gave us the lowest rating. Kindly give us a private feedback as we always do our best to improve. Thank you again for staying with us.
