Oct 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This property is beautiful and clean! It is plenty of room for 2 people, maybe 4 if you are bringing an air mattress and don't mind feeling cozy. I had to call the property manager as I got confused about which set of stairs to use to get to our room, and they answered right away and were super helpful!The bed was comfy, with crisp linens. The bathroom is beautiful with a great shower. There is an adjustable thermostat, and a cute little breakfast nook. The kitchenette has a microwave, toaster, stove top (no oven), and coffee maker. We appreciated that they provided things like coffee, spices, and olive oil - always nice additions to have on hand for a meal "at home" since we were there for a few days.The place is located off of a main road, and is super convenient for walking to some great food or coffee. We were in town for a Gators game, and while that was about a 1.5 mile walk (about 45 mins for us), we enjoyed getting a semi-tour of the town! And not having to deal with parking was a win. The area around the college was cool to see!Highly recommend the little brunch/lunch place down the street called "Afternoon" - a 7 minute walk you won't regret!! Get the crispy potato bowl.Thanks again for a lovely stay! ##### Taylor H.
