The Neighborhood:
Founded in the 1880s, the Historic Ybor City district is well known for its eclectic collection of culture and countless cigar factories for which the city was named, for Don Vincent Martinez Ybor. Take a stroll down the original red brick streets and step into a piece of history. Indulge in a comedy show at The Improv, dine at the historic Columbia Restaurant, or explore the local shops, bars, and artisans that make the Ybor community so rich!

Getting Around:
Ybor City is notorious for the street trolley system- it's free, runs every 15 minutes, and has many stops throughout Ybor, Downtown Tampa, and Channelside! Ybor City is a very walkable neighborhood however, there are also self-service bicycles and electric scooters available for rent in the area via any of the scooter rental apps. (Bird, Uber, Lime, etc.) If you are planning on exploring the Greater Tampa Bay Area, there are many car rental storefronts at the airport and in the surrounding area! Tampa and Ybor City have a plethora of street parking, garage parking, and pay-by-app parking.

Other Things to Note:
- Smoking: Smoking of any substance is strictly prohibited inside the unit and anywhere on the property. There will be a $500 fee charged to guests who do not obey this rule

- This studio apartment is located in the heart of Ybor, which is known for its fascinating history and vibrant nightlife so you will likely experience loud noise from time to time, especially during the weekend. If you would prefer to stay in a more toned-down area, please message us so we can point you in the right direction!

- The parking provided is a 5-minute walk from the apartment. The parking lot is not located on the same property as the apartment building.

Really enjoyed the location and the free rail car that runs through the city behind the building. Plenty of restaurants and coffee shops for a stroll in the morning or evening. YBOR is a neat little part of Tampa and I wasn't expecting it to have such a cultural flare. The communication with the property owner was very good leading up to my visit. Just be prepared that you will not be able to get into the building before your time at 4:00 p.m. my flight arrived early and I was unable to get in like you might experience sometimes with a regular hotel chain.
