Location is great and for one person, it got the job done. I found the bed too hard and very uncomfortable as well as the pillows. I couldn’t get the futon to stay upright. Nothing the owners can control, but their neighbors dog was barking alot. But for the money, you can’t beat it.

Grateful for the feedback, First time we have heard this and we have had guests stay for over a month and we're very pleased. Good to hear everything else was up to your standards. Thanks again for choosing us to host your stay. We have other units and maybe the beds will be better for your taste and comfort. Hope to have you back sometime soon.

The one room apartment had everything needed, other than hand soap. It was clean and quiet, and the bed comfortable. Unfortunately the WI-FI information posted on the wall and in the booklet was incorrect so I was unable to log in. There are 3 rental units and luckily when I knocked on the next door, someone staying there had the correct WiFi access information so all was well.

Hands down the hosts were extremely helpful to me! I messed up and reserved the wrong weekend and because the owner (even before I got there!) was incredibly accessible and luckily able to change my booking! The studio apartment is cute and cozy. The bed pretty comfortable. I enjoyed it. I would definitely go here again. Thank you!!

My name is Tom and my beautiful wife is Sandy. I was born in upstate N.Y. in a small town known as Fairport and moved to Florida in the 80's. Veteran of 5 years in the U.S. Navy. Sandy grew up in Guatemala City, Guatemala and is fluent in Spanish. She is a licensed skin therapist for over 10 years and specializes in many different facial treatments. We are proud parents to 2 boys. We have 10 + years of experience hosting on multiple platforms in over 180 countries. We are very knowledgeable of the area and can provide you with excellent dinning recommendations and can extend some discounts on some of the surrounding attractions. We await your arrival with open arms.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location. Centrally located in the Brandon area you are close to everything. Safe to walk, or jog and there is Davis Park within walking distance.

What makes this property unique

We thought that this would be the perfect get away for any traveler looking to stay in central florida with the ability to make day trips to all the major attractions Florida has to offer. We personally have made many day trips ourselves and can recommend many places to go. We are close to everything Brandon has to offer and are only 15-20 minutes from Downtown and major attractions in the area.
