Very nice and comfortable
The property was very well kept, clean and comfortable. It was very quiet and peaceful. The main reason to come to Sarasota for a first visit was to see our granddaughter. She is going to college at Ringling College of Art and Design. We walked to most of the places we wanted to see when she was in class which was a joy to us. Thank you Lisa for the communication with us too!

Great location
The location of this home really helped. I loved how close we were to the heart of the city and access to all other areas we were interested to visit. Could not ask for a better location. The home itself still needs some attention. It's a bit run down looking on the exterior and the screened in porch is a bit weathered. The inside was clean and the bed was relatively comfortable. The kitchen was functional but could use some niceties. One note, there is no dishwasher if you plan on cooking.
