Very tropical, private and peaceful, short walk to everything happening downtown

Christie was very attentive to our needs and responded quickly with communication. The apartment itself is located in a great part of Sarasota city- walkable to everything. The apartment had the bare minimum in the kitchen. 2 plastic spoons and a handful of plastic forks/knives. 4 coffee mugs:bowls,plates and some cooking utensils. She was sweet enough to provide us with 5 eggs and some fruit but we didn’t have cooking spray etc (we were visiting our daughter who lives in the area) so I was going to make hard boiled eggs. There were only 2 frying pans and no pots which she delivered 2 to us very quickly after texting her. When I started cooking the eggs the burner started to smoke as there was food stuck under the electrical components which I cleaned after it cooled off. There was also no dish soap which she brought up after we requested it . The bathtub does not drain well and the water pressure was only fair. The bed has a temperpedic topper which I found comfortable but my husband did not. The overall place was clean (except for the burner) and the AC worked well. Christie also put out fresh flowers and water on the night stands. She also had some green tea : monk fruit sweetener:popcorn :salt and coffee in kitchen but no coffee filters.(I grabbed some from my daughter) Christie does try to give you a comfortable stay and we would stay there again!

Pleasant and quiet. No problems.

Bright sunny rental with ample space for 2 people. Walkable to many things within a mile. Off street parking a bonus!

Host was welcoming. It was unfortunate that we missed any information indicating that the apartment was up a back set of stairs. The stone walkway to the back of the building was uneven and could be dangerous. After talking to the host, we discovered that the previous guests had taken her silverware, so we only had plastic ware for the first day. There was also very little choice in cookware (because we chose to eat in, that was a bit of a challenge). The bathtub and bathroom sink were slow draining. Host had forgotten to take care of that prior to our visit.The apartment itself was cozy and had some lovely character. AC worked fine.
