The room has a lovely view over the bay. The property is located in a quiet idyllic street And is a level bike ride along a beach then through the university to the vibrant downtown. I didn’t get in my rental car the entire stay.The host was fantastic. I stay in Vrbos because I love meeting people and making new friends. I will certainly stay here again. If you are looking for a quiet lovely place… this has a lot to offer. I’d give 6 stars if possible

Outstanding host who did everything possible to make this a great stay. Location is unique, this is an upstairs bedroom in a house tucked back behind a so-so neighborhood in ‘Old Southeast’ right on the water which was cool. The space itself is fairly small, one bed, a small bathroom, small fridge and microwave and table. No kitchen so if you need a place to cook this may be a challenge. But for a night or two away being in St Pete and not right downtown it was a good choice. Really beautiful view from the room.

You were a pleasure to host! And I’m glad you appreciated the proximity to downtown and the views! Old Southeast is the oldest plated neighborhood in St Pete, so it offers a wide range of experience while still being charming and so close in. Hope to see you again!
