One block from butler plaza shopping center and 2 miles away from UF, hospitals. 5 beds and mulpital pillows. A park is next to community. Two signed parking lot, community pool. Nice friendly and safe neighborhood.
Jessica was very nice and good to work with. Our issues should be resolved by the time next guests use the property. This is not a vacation retreat, but the location is good for a work stay.
The home was plenty spacious for our needs, all the needed toiletries and linens were provided, and the check in / out process was simple and reasonable. Location is great for pretty much anything you could want to do in Gainesville.
Above all the host Jessica was very kind and accommodating and ensured that our stay was stress free and smooth.
We didn't use the kitchen so I can't comment on that, and as other reviews mentioned the house was not *spotless*, but it was by no means dirty and that didn't detract from our experience. I would gladly stay again!
Broken Appliances, Furniture and undercover harassing Host Jessica
I chose this property because of the advertisement of two beds in each room it seemed to be a good fit for my family and I to share rooms and a convenient middle point to meet for Christmas dinner. Upon arriving, I did an initial visual walk through and took pictures of some visual damages before unloading. Jessica told me that she was going to be out of town, however she came over unannounced early the next morning. The stove caught on fire in the middle of me cooking Christmas dinner due to faulty wiring. I called and reported this to Jessica immediately and she asked me not to call the fire department and that she would come the following morning and her husband who is not a Certified electrician could fix it but I quickly declined and because he could have hurt himself or my family in the process, the roof leaked in the bedroom, the Host controlled the appliances with her phone including turning the heat to almost 80 degrees inside. We were rushed to leave the departure morning because she said another family was arriving. However no repairs were made AFTER I reported to her and can you believe she had the nerve to ask me how much I was going to pay towards repairs that she is responsible for. Her faulty broken down property almost ruined our Christmas because the stove caught on fire in the middle of me cooking dinner. Good thing my family was up watching movies and drinking hot chocolate. We could have been burned alive if we had been sleeping when the fire started.
Location! location! location! This townhouse close to UF, Shands Hospital, VA Hospital, HCA Florida North Florida Hospital, Shopping mall and Resturants. Next to the busy street but in quiet neiborhood. You do not really hear the noisy from the busy road.
