Review:We stayed here for a college football weekend and had a good experience overall. The apartment was clean and in a convenient location, perfect for two people but definitely a bit tight for a larger group. Check-in was smooth, and the owner was very responsive and easy to communicate with. A solid stay for a quick trip!

Comfortable stay

The apartment itself was very comfortable and quiet. Tyler was a responsive host answering messages quickly. Checking in was a breeze. However the surrounding property is not very nice.

We enjoyed the coffee bar & supplies, the location was very convenient to downtown Gainesville. The condo was well supplied with everything we needed. We appreciated that they allow dogs and felt "at home". A TV in the bedroom would have been nice.

Nice place to stay

The location is awesome. We had appointments at the hospital and could walk there in minutes. The place was clean and had all the basic accoutrements. I think it needs some little updates (black out curtains in the bedroom, better coffee, a bed skirt on the bed). Just a few touches that make it feel more like home. The owner was great—easy to communicate with and contacted us to ensure we enjoyed our stay. We would definitely rent here again.

Nice

Everything was smooth check in was great ! The outside could have been a little bit cleaner but it was a complex so it had nothing to do with the actual apartment. Once i got in the apartment it was cozy and very clean. The only issue it should of had a Tv in the room. Thats a easy fix. So overall i will definitely book again.

Quiet, comfortable, clean

Nice little place, very comfortable, well maintained, and close to campus. I will note that it is a bit far from any grocery stores, which could be an inconvenience in a longer stay if you don't have a car, but otherwise the place is great and very reasonably priced.

This property was absolutely perfect when my husband and I came to visit our son and attend a football game at the university of Florida. We were within walking distance of the game, and the accommodations were wonderful. The cost was about the same as a hotel room, but we got so much more. It’s nice to have the extra room to stretch out and to have a full kitchen. We have marked it a favorite, so we will be back.

Tyler the property manager was great to work with. However, the complex and neighborhood was sketchy. We wanted to take advantage of the pool. That's one reason we chose this place. The pool had been closed down by the health department since Oct 23. Additionally something pretty suspect was floating in the pool. The listing sure doesn't mention any of this. Additionally, there was a lot of mold on the shower curtain.
