Good communication, property was clean, the cleaners could cut way back on the pine sol or actually never use it again, way too strong. Thanks for having us.
We had a wonderful stay and would absolutely come back. The host was very accommodating and communicative from the time we bookedâquickly answering questions before our stay, checking in during our visit, and making checkout easy.The backyard was one of our favorite parts. It was large, beautiful, and had plenty of space for my pup to run around. The fire pit and hanging benches were such a cozy touch. We especially loved sitting by the fire in the evening and enjoying the warmth.The house itself had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. When we initially had a small issue gaining access to the home, the host immediately contacted her handyman, who came right away and remained available throughout our stay in case anything else came up. That level of responsiveness was greatly appreciated.Overall, it was a great experience and we would definitely stay here again.
Our host was very attentive and checked in on us. This is definitely a great place for Busch Gardens and 20 minutes from downtown. If you bring a dog, there is a great dog park near by.
Walking in it looks clean. But it is not. The floor, countertops, shelves, everything was filthy dirty. We all refused to walk barefoot. We could not enjoy the firepit (which is the main reason I booked this place) because the swings were covered in dirt and mold. The fence is falling down in multiple places so I did not feel comfortable leaving the door alone out back afraid he might get out. The light switch in the bathroom is kinda dangling there from the wall. We were locked out on our last day. We left for breakfast and when we came back to gather our things, the code was changed and we no longer had access (this was an hour before check out time). Luckily we left the backdoor unlocked so we were able to get in. This placed served it's purpose for sleeping only. I would not stay here again unless they clean and fix things.
This house was perfect for our quick trip to Tampa. Plenty of room for 4 adults and 1 dog. Clean and convenient location. We will definitely try to rent this place again in the future.

Property was just what we needed for a short vacation. Plenty of room and close to Busch gardens. I noticed our socks or feet really dirty while walking around. Really enjoyed our stay though and would highly recommend
My mother and I stayed with pets. The yard was shady even in the afternoon which was nice! The owner communicated as needed throughout our stay. Check out was a breeze!
Property manger was great with communication. House was located in quite neighborhood near to where we needed to be for our daughters graduation from USF. The property worked well for us. For the price point, I would stay again anytime!
Pictures accurately reflect home.Well supplied and comfortable, great yard, walk to water but no access, view from front yard. Great host to work with. Quiet neighborhood but close to park, Busch Gardens and USF campus.
This was a great little house that put us right near everything we needed to be close to. We were at a volleyball tourney at the fairgrounds and this location was perfect. Not too far away. Right near campus as well with many stores close by. There is a really nice backyard with a small grill for cooking. Would stay again!! Thanks!!
My teenage son and I visited for a soccer tournament. The home is situated in a neighborhood that is going through gentrification so there are updated and well kept homes as well as homes in need of repairs and a lawn mower. The inside is gorgeous and updated. The kitchen is open and bright and the bathroom shower was amazing. Everything worked well. It is very close to Busch Gardens and USF. Gris is a fantastic host - very responsive during my entire stay.
This house was just what we needed for our week in Tampa. Convenient to downtown, Ybor City, USF and Busch Gardens. Nicely decorated and has a big back yard. A few steps to the river and a large park.
This older but thoughtfully renovated home is tiled throughout, making it a good choice for guests with kids and dogs. We appreciated the host's flexibility in letting us bring both of our dogs. The fenced back yard was a bonus. Griselda's communication with us was excellent.
The house is located in a non-gentrified neighborhood in the shadow of Busch Gardens. The street has an interesting mixture of large dream homes overlooking the river and rundown homes with appliances in the front yard. But you can't pick your neighbors, and if visiting Busch Gardens is an aim for your trip, you couldn't pick a more convenient spot. It's quiet, too.
The beds are very comfortable. The back yard is full of gorgeous oaks with Spanish moss. But there's a small price for their beauty: They drop a lot of leaves and debris. We had to protect our food outside, and we vacuumed a couple times because the dogs tracked in debris on their paws.
Four things would bump this listing up to a 5-star property: an additional pan for the kitchen because it has a double oven and only one sheet pan; extras like trash bags and food wraps for the kitchen; a new futon cushion in the living area; and blinds or wider curtains on the windows in the common areas. There are sheers, but you can see straight into the kitchen from the street at night. As a woman for whom safety is a priority, I felt a little uneasy at first. The bedroom windows are sufficiently covered.
Overall, this was a nice place to stay.
We enjoyed our stay at Griseldaâs cottage. She kept in touch to make sure we were taken care of.I had difficulty at first, with the app lock, but it was probably user error. After that, a breeze to lock & secure. Enjoyed our stay!
We had a great experience at this vacation rental! Griselda was a very helpful, responsive, professional, and friendly host. The house was charming and the backyard space was a wonderful escape for us. It was a great space for my family and our furbaby! I loved that the area was quiet with a calming view of the river. We would stay here again and recommend it to others.
Really nice quiet street, the house was very close to where we needed to go and close to shops and restaurants. Very comfortable layout and the host was very attentive and sweet. We had everything we needed. Will def. Consider it next time we come to Tampa.
