A perfect stay all around! Clean with all the amenities you'll need to feel right at home for your stay. Communicated with host ahead of time as we were traveling with a small U-Haul trailer and they let us know that we could park it right across the street at the Walmart (confirmed with the manager there just in case!). I was a tad nervous about this but the Walmart had security driving around and it was less than a minute walk with the side gate exit by the condo. The walking trails around the neighborhood as well as the pool were a great way to stretch our legs after/before our 14 hour trek. Thank you so much for a being an awesome host to our first trip to Florida! ##### Jane J.

It was very clean and has everything you need. It is very close to St. Johns Town Center for fun shopping and right across from a Walmart which is very nice. Lots of room in the apartment and quiet at night. I would definitely stay here again! Highly recommend. The host is very nice and responsive and helps with any questions you have.
