Trendy Bungalow mins to Colleges & Downtown Gainesville
8.6 out of 10, Excellent, (4)
"We arrived at 3:00 for check-in, contacted owner for lock-code. They replied that the space was still being cleaned and that we should come back at 4:00. We used the time to shop for food for the week. At 4:00, still no code, but cleaning person let us in. We put our groceries in the fridge. In the morning we found that the refrigerator wasn’t working. We let the owners know about the problem, they said they had provided a mini-fridge, (totally inadequate for our needs.) We asked them to call...

Cute Condo Close to Campus - Walk to Shands/Pool!
9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (14)
"The decor is beautiful, beds comfy and amenities were just right. It's obvious that the apartment is older but very well updated. Plenty of toilet paper, paper towels and a little cleaning supplies to help clean throughout our stay. Could use more than 4 plates/bowls/forks/spoons... And towels... Was hoping for a broom but not provided. Nice to have the TV in the living room but could have used one in a bedroom when traveling with children. Pool was right across the quiet little street.

King bed, pool, creek! Private artsy 1/1 condo in forest, 1.6 mi. north of UF!
8.4 out of 10, Very Good, (5)
"Clean, easily accessible, needs porch screen, backyard quite peaceful, close to everything. Parking can be tricky as only one way in to condos. Recommend parking at the end so out is much easier. More than enough amenities. A great nights sleep would be greatly enhanced by the head of the bed against the wall and cotton pillowcases instead of silk. They travel all over the slick silk sheets and fall into the black hole at head of bed—preventing stacking pillows."

"Our group of 6 spent the weekend to attend soccer and football at UF for the weekend. The place was well equipped and the pool was old school in the best way. The home was very accommodating for our two dogs. If bringing dogs there is a pet fee not listed in the rental description. The fee was reasonable so not a dealbreaker for bringing the pups.Besides that everything was great."

"Cute property, great college vibe. You’ll hear dogs/cats/people in adjoining apartments as if they’re in same room as you. Front door needs repair, has hole from previous lock/handle and needs weather stripping. Would stay again because it was clean, we felt safe and it was a good no-frills budget property."
