Was the perfect location for us.

A week in Tampa

My wife, a friend, and I stayed at Sydney and Berta’s for a week. From the moment we arrived made our selves comfortable and at home. The whole process with Sydney was a pleasure. He was very nice along the way. The home, which was walking distance to Busch Gardens and our event, was very clean and upkept. I don’t have a single clomplaint. It exceeded expectations and was very comfortable and spacious. Would definitely recommend and would definitely stay here again in the future. Thanks again Sydney and Berta!!
