One thing I wish I knew about this property first off is that you’re getting a room in a shared house. That being said, we didn’t have any issues with other tenants. The property was clean and each room had its own electronic lock and each room had a mini fridge assigned to it. However, only 1 room had a private bathroom. The other 3 or 4 rooms shared the same bathroom. This wasn’t too much of a concern, but there was a sign on the trash can that said to throw everything away, including toilet paper. I don’t know if that’s a normal thing for the area, but being from Idaho, throwing used toilet paper in the garbage seemed a bit odd. My wife and I ended up driving to a nearby gas station to use the bathroom due to this. The property owner was very quick to respond to any questions I had, but I had to ask each time for check-in and check-out instructions, they weren’t automatically sent me to as was implied. The other thing to note is that people will drive through the area in the middle of the night blasting music from their cars with the bass turned up. My wife and I were woken up by this more than once during our stay. Overall, not a bad place to stay for a vacation, but next time I’ll spend a little more for a place I can flush toilet paper.

This place is for people staying for extended periods who want to minimize costs and are willing to adapt. It does not have all the usual amenities of a hotel. There were no cups, and one towel and one “rag” each. The room lock was loose, and the toilet lid was broken. However, it was clean. I would not want to walk in the neighborhood after dark.

Outside noise from cars, horns, walkers and other vehicles was very loud. Sparse amenities. No lamp, wash cloth or top sheet on bed. Lighting needs improvement. Security was good, but challenging to open and close. Please put signage up to assist at entry areas. Images sent in text ok, but difficult to see.

Short stay at Zen Homes in Tampa near Bush Gardens

I have been traveling to Tampa area for work for nearly 25 years and I have stayed at many different hotels, this house was much nicer and had all the comforts of home, no horrible smoke or moldy smelling rooms, everything was clean and comfortable the bathroom was perfect and . The check in process was fast and convenient. I will definitely be staying here again soon. In addition to the comfortable room I also saved money compared to the local hotels.
