Could've used a couple more pillows, towels & coffee pods but overall a great stay and John was quick to communicate and a great host!! Everything was a described! Will definitely stay there again! Highly recommend!! ##### Debi S. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer C. Mar 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Hidden Gem! What a great little efficiency so close to Busch Gardens and USF. John’s place was super clean and just as pictured. As others have mentioned- a few extra towels and pillows are needed. Basic pots and pans to cook with and a nice sink to wash the dishes as well. Maybe some plates (instead of paper plates) would be helpful to some? We didn’t need them. Thank you and we hope to stay here again! ##### Jennifer C. Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Daniel S. Oct 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Communication #### A bit disappointed Unfortunately, due to the hurricane I was only able to stay 1 of the 4 nights I had booked as the area was evacuated. I had been in frequent communication with the host until I had asked to transfer the days I had paid for but lost due to the storm to a few days later as I still needed to be at work. From that point I had no more replies to messages. It is a shame because the property/location itself was exactly what I needed and would have needed to add on an additional week. Will be booking a different property for this week. ##### Daniel S. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Myron T. May 11, 2025 ##### Myron T.
