Modern Casita near Amalie Arena, Ybor City, and Downtown
Welcome to the most strategic spot in Tampa! This forgotten neighborhood might be by warehouses and ports but that just means you're a street away from the water and a bike ride away from Ybor/Channelside/Downtown. And a car's ride away from all major Tampa attractions. It's got a Queen size bed, full bathroom, kitchen, and living room. There's a Mexican restaurant across the street, the bay is a 2 minute walk away, and Desoto Pier Park is right down the street. It's also close to Ikea, The Florida Aquarium, Ikea, Coppertail Brewing, and Amalie Arena. Dog friendly with a fee but service animals are always welcome!

This little place was perfect for our Florida vacation. It was very clean and comfortable. Our property manager was easy to get a hold of if we had questions. We had two restaurants within a few minutes walk from our apartment. We sat out every evening on the little veranda and enjoyed the nice weather.
A good place to sray before a cruise. Close to Tampa cruise port. The place was clean and comfortable,and good amenities. One negative is that the property is attached to a barber shop, and it got noisy when the shop was open.There is a convenience store across the street selling mexican foods, and has a small restaurant.
Was a little confused when we first arrived. Had an issue first trying to figure out where this property was, because I was assuming it was a house. This property shared a building with a Barbershop. But they were very nice. In the evening you could hear them laughing and cutting it up, but that ended about 9 PM. The little convince store/ Restaurant is across the street and we went there 6 different times in 2 days. That was super convenient. We took Uber everywhere and they normally took 7-15 minutes to arrive, never longer. I should talk about the property itself. Very clean, bed comfortable, kitchen and bathroom updated presently and the entire space has a very clean/calming vibe! Would love to go back and stay again.
Came to stay for a week in April, and could not be happier. The casita, although an older unit, was well kept up, very clean, and nicely decorated.The host happened to be there finishing up cleaning outside when I got there; probably a good thing, because the lock was just enough different from others I’ve seen and used that it probably would have stymied me without her direction. She was super nice and welcoming when I got there, which was greatly appreciated - and then she left me to privacy for the rest of my stay, which was even better.The family market / restaurant across the street serves some of the best authentic Mexican tacos I’ve ever eaten, so that was an added bonus.
