The property was everything we expected. We were in town for the Heritage Festival and everything including the event was a short walk. No car needed. The only recommendation is for lights on the outside stairwell and back door entrance so it could be better lit. It was hard to see the stairs and keypad for the back door. We would definitely stay again.

This loft is a great spot to stay in Ybor. Second time at this location and it's always great - close to all the action, and easy to walk over to 7th Street. Great people watching from the balcony too.

Cool place 2 blocks from Ybor's main street (7th). A little loud on weekend nights, but that's to be expected. Convenient to the conference center with PLENTY of eateries, cigar bars, clubs within walking distance.

Location of the flat was great. Walking distance to lots of shopping and fun food and drink places. The flat as a very large living area (pool table I. The main room) and we loved sitting on the balcony with our drinks. I do feel that the place needs a through deep cleaning. the bathrooms were not clean when we arrived. The dust bunnies were everywhere. This place is older and it has lots of character. With a little effort and elbow grease it could really be a top performer. One mention to stairway entrance- you really need motion lights back there. It is quite dangerous to go up or down in the dark. Over all -a fun experience- perfect for our wedding weekend activities.

This was a very nice place to stay! close to everything in down town Tampa! My colleagues and I spent alot of time at the convention center for business in down town Tampa and loved that the trolly or the bus is only a few blocks away and can take you from the penthouse to the center of down town in less than ten min. The only thing that i can say would have been better if, the claw foot bath tub was a stand up hands free shower. It was a sit down tub shower and the hand held did not have a whole lot of water pressure that came out of shower head handle. Also, we were not able to take a bath in the claw foot tub because we couldn't figure out how to close the drain. this made it so that all four of us had to all use the master shower. But other than that, we loved it! I would stay there again. I would just bring my own plug for the claw tub. very nice and very comfortable place to stay. thanks for the beautiful place Lauren.

Our stay is filled with mixed feelings. The space and location was wonderful. Parking was great. However, the unit was not set up to accommodate the number of guests that can comfortably stay. The two bathrooms are in bedrooms leaving the third bedroom and trundle sleeper without a bath to use except through one of the other rooms. Other than on the balcony, there is only a kitchen table that seats four and the kitchen was not equipped well enough to handle 8 guests. The biggest issue was the entrance stairs. Access is up a narrow, steep set of exterior metal stairs. We did not have too much of an issue due to a younger group but if anyone in a group has difficulties with stairs this is NOT the place for you. Overall I give it 3 stars because it was such a good location and overall space but I doubt I would stay again. There are too many other options.

Old building with charm. Rental property is on the 2nd floor of a large building and has a spacious common room with wrap-around couch, large TV, and a billiards table. Front deck has plenty of room to relax at night with a drink and a cigar from the local J.C. Newman factory. The location is great if you intend to visit 7th Avenue to take advantage of the bars, cigar shops, and restaurants that Ybor has to offer. Can walk to La Segunda bakery and J.C. Newman. Trolley stop is two blocks away and can get you to the shinier parts of downtown Tampa (Riverwalk, Armature, Sparkman Wharf, Amalie Arena). Constructive Feedback/Tips -The exterior stairs to enter the loft resemble a fire escape and could be difficult to navigate with large luggage. -The 4th bedroom is more of a converted sitting room with a trundle-style bed and couch. If you plan to use the deck at night, this room is a high traffic area and not ideal for light sleepers. To go from living room to deck, or living room to 3rd bedroom, you must walk through the 4th bedroom. -There is no hallway bathroom. The two bathrooms are connected to the 1st bedroom and the 2nd bedroom. Anyone not sleeping in those two bedrooms has to risk disturbing/waking the occupants.

Humongous space with nice balcony and pool table, near lots of breweries and restaurants within walking distance. One block away from free tram. A bit noisy on weekend nights with the nearby clubs, so not for light sleepers. Check-in and out was smooth.
