The location was decent (if you don’t mind driving 15 mins to campus) and it was clean, but it was old and not well maintained. The shower door was broken and the yard was very overgrown. The neighborhood was not the greatest and the layout was very awkward.

Convenient location, particularly if going to a UF game. Clean and comfortable. Enjoyed having a fenced in backyard. Would definitely stay again. Host reached multiple times. Would stay again.
