Family visit to Brandon, Fl
The houses is nice and clean with updates. However, the bed mattresses were extremely hard and made sleeping uncomfortable. The pillows were hard and the bed linen was thin and flimsy. Please invest more in the sleeping accommodations because adults need restorative sleep. We take vacations to relax and sleep is essential. Thank you

Convenient and Clean
The house was the perfect size for our family and convenient to all the places we had plans to go. Short hop to the zoo, Busch gardens, downtown, the bay, and out to the suburbs too.
Wish we had known: no dishwasher, no drying rack, no colander, small coffee pot, (no oven - but that’s in the listing), minor issues with shower heads. Beds seemed newer, but very firm.
Located in a quiet corner of the neighborhood near a school, but the arterial roads a few blocks away were busy and populated by pawnshops. Reminded us of when we lived in a city.
Everything was clean and in order when we arrived. Yusnel is quick to respond as a host and we appreciated that.

Nice house, Very responsive
Very clean place. Looked like it was recently renovated. I had a slight issue with the key pad when we first arrive but Yusnel picked up right away when I called and addressed the issue quickly. With 2 queen beds, bunk beds, and 2 full baths, there is plenty of space for a family. The only gripe I had was that the shower took a long time to heat up and wasn’t that hot
As far as location, I wasn’t a fan unless the main purpose of your trip is to visit Busch Gardens. There were more fast food restaurants and mini take out shops then family style sit down restaurants. Also didn’t feel safe taking my little ones out for a walk. Other than that, Yusnel has a gorgeous house and was very responsive.

Cute little house sketchy area
House was nicely appointed. Seemed recently updated. Tile throughout home. Beds were very firm. I would recommend bringing your own pillows and bed topper. Clean and really well appointed kitchen. The ice machine didn’t work in refrigerator which was a bummer. The house was just fine for Vrbo house but biggest issue is the area it is located in. Very sketchy as you are driving to home and we had to visit the convenience store on the corner for ice since the machine was broken and while there were taken aback by the obvious drug addicts surrounding it. The house sits about a block from the sketchy area.

Nice house- bad neigborhood
Overall the stay was good however- the neighborhood we were in did not seem very safe. There was always people walking around the neighborhood late at night- there was a security system in the house but you could tell the area was not a very safe place to stay. The furnishings were nice except for the master bed which was very hard to sleep on. There were only 3 washcloths provided and only one hand towel and 1 dish towel. There was 6 large towels. The pillows were not comfortable. There was no oven and no dishwasher on the home. There was no cable tv only internet that you could connect your internet tv stations to. But overall house clean and nice inside .

Everything was great at the place.....except the bed felt hard as a rock. We spent half the day feeling awful from lack of sleep. But the place was fantastic, the location was good, and I loved the fact you can watch the security outside the house. Overall a great place...just need to fix the bed situation.

This stay far exceeded my expectations! The pictures were nice, but the house in person was even more impressive. From the moment we walked in, it smelled amazing, was spotless, spacious, and very accommodating. I would highly recommend this house to anyone and would definitely stay again. Yusnel was amazing to work with—very responsive and quick to help. I actually made a huge mistake on my booking, but he rectified it right away, allowing my family and I to enjoy a wonderful time in Tampa. 10/10, hands down!!
