Turkey Weekend Football Fun!

Wonderful property with a great location for the walking to the football game. Property was clean and linens on the beds were super-soft. A parking tag was missing, but ended up not being an issue. Also, extra set of linens/blanket for futon in living room would be nice for people in the future. Thanks for the yummy box of chocolates, our family enjoyed! :)

Some repairs needed

There was damaged wood flooring in the main hallway that was dangerous. There was a lose piece of metal on the front door that caught and slammed every time you went in and out. There were these tiny ant like bugs all over the kitchen. Once these issues are addressed the condo itself was as expected and a good location.

We enjoyed our visit to Gainesville and staying at this cute VRBO. We were missing some necessities, and the admin was very responsive to take care of them. The place was clean, comfortable, and we appreciated the kitchen being well-stocked. We did read a review before saying to bring an ext. cord for the bedroom bc the outlets weren’t close to the nightstands, and we’re glad we did that. We also appreciated the big TV and the pool being so close to the condo. Our kids enjoyed movie times and the pool. Definitely recommend.

This is a wonderful property and the host was extremely helpful, both before our arrival and during our time there. I stayed there with two colleagues during a conference at the university. The kitchen was perfect to have a lovely hot breakfast each morning and we were in easy walking distance from our work and restaurants. The beds are very comfortable and the surroundings are very quiet. We had a fabulous time and hope to rent again if work gets us back there.

Out of towner’s taken advantage of

Disappointing. Ammenities were poor I asked for extra towels and instead was give 5 very small thin, some looked like they were taken from an inexpensive hotel. The dust on the fans and under the furniture was not what I am used to. No kitchen towels or anything to dry your hands in the bathroom. Bedcing was minimalistic and no iron to be found. We were allowed to check in at 2pm and out at 12 but honestly it took 4 emails and with nobody staying before or after us I am used to much more accomodating owners especially when we paid 1600 for 2 nights in Gainesville. Location was not bad but no way walkable and Ubers are hard to come by. Welcome to College Living

Nice job lace

A nice place to stay while attending a class at the hospital. Just bring a long charger cord for your phone as the outlets in the bedroom are a long way from the bed.

Four stars

Good communication with owner. There was a need for basic needs advertised but not at apt so after a call to owner, an order was delivered to door. The apt. is older but nicely updated and decorated. Apt. is off a busier road near hospital so lots of emergency vehicle/helicopter noise. Apt. needs some TLC as floors are buckled and needed to move a rug on top of area. Minus the few issues, may rating is a solid 4.

Cigarette smell but good customer service

The property appeared clean and nicely appointed. However, it has a very strong stale cigarette odor. The flooring is also broken in several places with pieces of flooring sticking up. We did not stay due to asthma issues but VRBO refunded us readily which we appreciated.

Cute place!

The decor is beautiful, beds comfy and amenities were just right. It's obvious that the apartment is older but very well updated. Plenty of toilet paper, paper towels and a little cleaning supplies to help clean throughout our stay. Could use more than 4 plates/bowls/forks/spoons... And towels... Was hoping for a broom but not provided. Nice to have the TV in the living room but could have used one in a bedroom when traveling with children. Pool was right across the quiet little street. Laundry easily accessible. Clean grounds. So close to everything. Messaged the property manager about access to a broom or mop to help keep the floor clean during the stay and wasn't responded to. Keep the curtains closed in the afternoon. Otherwise it gets very warm. Overall, we would stay again! Bring a broom, extra towels and paper plates/utensils.

Extended visit

The positive things was that we were close to where we needed to be. The beds were also comfortable. We stayed for a month and there was nothing to clean the apt, not a broom or toilet cleaning liquids, not an iron. The pots and pans were very used and scratched. The silver were scarce. Poor lighting in the kitchen area. The kitchen table was wabbly, we were afraid to sit at the table in fear that it would fall. They gave us only one key and it was inconvenient for our party since we had to share it. There were other minor inconveniences that were not as important to us.
