About this property

Downtown Heights Bungalow

Welcome to Downtown Heights Bunglow, originally a catalog home sold by Sears and Roebuck. Nestled a few blocks away from the beautiful Riverwalk District, Armature Works, and Downtown Tampa! Sitting on 1/4 of an acre there is plenty of room for you to roam. Enjoy a Café-con-leche on the porch in the morning—then dinner under the glowing gazebo at night. Cozy, Private, and Sanitized ready for your trip!

Stay away

I tried reaching out multiple times about things that were a problem and got no response. I am still looking for a refund but am getting ignored about that as well. (Tv didn’t work, hot tub didn’t get warm, multiple mice in the kitchen, no privacy to bedrooms)I hope they make this right.

Will not stay again, would not recommend.

The Hosts had very good communication and the property has good qualities (open floor plan, washer/dryer, great internet, great kitchen appliances, driveway, good hot water). However, the property is mis-represented in photos and its description. -overall finishes are poorly completed and some are safety hazard (exposed screws, uneven floor under carpet, barn door risk of falling off) -NONE of the bedrooms offer ANY privacy (mis-sized window treatments, open/non-locking doors, see-through door) -kitchen cookware is very limited -beds generally uncomfortable -evidence of ants developed within first day of stay (ants on kitchen counter) -evidence of mice developed within three days of stay (holes in carpet, food (banana) eaten on countertop, mouse droppings) We expressed our thoughts to the Hosts several times. They treat the property not as a true vacation rental, but more as an option other than a hotel. As long as you understand and limit your expectations, you could enjoy the property and experience, we didn't. We will not stay again nor do we recommend.

Why they chose this property

The Locale: Situated in Tampa Heights, also known as Downtown Heights. We are 4 short blocks to the Riverwalk district. The heart of the Riverwalk is Armature works, located at the beginning of its 2.6 mile length. Armature Works is a mixed-use space featuring an upscale food court, bar and lounge, with breathtaking views of the river and downtown skyline—all located in a turn of the century streetcar repair facility. This is a must visit. A few steps down from AW is Ulele. A product of the notable Gonzmart Family. Featuring upscale multi-cultural Floridian fare, and its very own brewery.

What makes this property unique

After you have had your fill, rent a scooter to visit some of the below: Shuffle Grand Cathedral Cigars—The name says it all, a cathedral, that’s now a cigar bar. Downtown Mural Tour—including the Kobe & Gigi Bryant Tribute Lees Grocery—a great local spot for wings and beer The Garagiste Meadery—Mead, its really good. Ybor City—where the Original Colombia Restaurant is located Woven Water Brewing—Great beer Hidden Springs—Nationally known, locally made Magnanimous Brewing—great for beer AND coffee 5 minutes from the aquarium and arena. We are 8 minutes from the stadium. 20 minutes from Clearwater :-)
