Wonderful space
The property is so clean, spacious, well decorated, and convenient to downtown. The bed was comfortable and the tenants in the adjoining duplex were so quiet you wouldn't even know someone was there!

Bright, modern, small apartment. More spacious and quieter than hotel or motels in the area. I stayed there for four nights while doing a diving course. It was very convenient to be walking distance to the restaurants on Main St.

Lovely apartment
The apartment was very nice and comfortable for our stay. The owner clearly communicated and check in and out was super easy. We went to Mill Creek Farm the retirement home for horses which was so wonderful and I highly recommend. We also really enjoyed a brewery and winery near by (about 10 min drive) Daft Cow and Beaker. The coffee shop I'd recommend is Doxa (about a 5 min drive). Downtown Alachua itself was a little disappointing. It's unfortunate that there aren't more shops and restaurants there as this is a great location with walking proximity to downtown. Hopefully it gets a revival and we'd come back! Thank you again for a great stay though in the apartment. It was cozy and had so many things included (cups, filtered eater, coffee cups, creamer, paper plates, paper towels, silverwear, etc) that was very helpful during our stay.
