Fabulous Stay
We love this apartment. It's conveniently located, super clean, has decent kitchen amenities, and Michele is extremely responsive and attentive. Any time we have to go to Lakeland this is always our first choice.
It's going to be hard to justify the expense for a hotel stay anymore. My family and I were nervous as first time Vrbo customers, not knowing what to expect, but it was so smooth. The value here is undeniable, and I'm hoping that all hosts are like Michelle! We needed for nothing during our two day stay, and she worked with us on check-in-check-out times so well.. we felt so at home as if it were our own. We're definitely Vrbo customers now!, thank you so much Michelle! This was a very important weekend for us and you made it happen!
