Jan 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### USF visit My family and I stayed here as we moved our son into USF. The location was extremely close to the university. The property was clean and the neighbors were nice. Kirk was very helpful. When I messaged him through the VRBO app he responded instantly and accommodated our requests. ##### Scot B. Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Larry R. Apr 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Comfortable and convenient We stayed at this home for 3 weeks because it was close to Moffitt Cancer Center (7-8 minutes). The home was clean and comfortable. The amenities were sufficient for a shorter term visit but could have been a bit better with a few added conveniences. The kitchen supplies could have been better and the property owner seemed to be willing to upgrade to better accommodate families. For a shorter term stay to visit the Parks, etc. this would be a good place to stay. ##### Larry R. Stayed 18 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Willim G. Jan 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Tampa house No problems. Great showers. ##### Willim G.
