Very clean. Quiet. We’ll maintained. We’ve stayed here for 30 years. One of better rooms. Curt M.

When I go away, I just want quiet. My husband and I liked this place for that reason. Our unit faced the canal but we could sit on the patio with coffee and watch the sun come up. I also saw pelicans and a dolphin. The room is like a studio apartment. It’s well appointed and the bed is comfortable- firm but not hard. The kitchen had everything we needed except a small skillet. We just used a baking pan instead. The bathroom is clean and stocked but it is small like a hotel bathroom. It wasn’t a problem for us but I could see where it might be an issue for others. There are 2 restaurants. 2 pools. & 2 tennis courts but that’s about it if you don’t own a boat. Tampa Bay and Bahia Beach are less than a block away. The west facing rooms can see the bay and get good sunsets. Currently there is a fence blocking access to the bay dock because it is damaged. We’re FL natives and empty nesters so we like places like this - only wish we could have gone for a shoreline stroll which was not possible. All in all very good trip for the price. It is a little away from the attractions but great place to unplug. Jerri H.

Great Sunrise
Enjoyed the morning sunrise out our window. Also enjoyed the sunset, and the St Petersburg skyline, each evening from the pier. We parked on the side of the building so we didn’t block the water view from our room. Pools and restaurants were very close and easy to walk to. Would stay in this room again!

Unit 301 Review
The room was clean and the view of the water was very nice, but I wouldn't refer to it as a "condo". Being able to walk everywhere was nice, so we were able to park the car and not worry about driving anywhere. The bathroom was very small and the door would get stuck on the rug when you tried to close the door. When I called about an issue with the tub filling up when we showered, it was fixed when we went to take a shower the next day, which was nice. I do wish the tub would have been cleaned after fixing the issue as it was dirty with all the soap scum from the tub filling up. Also, the bathroom can use some different towels & washcloths. They were very cheap, mismatched and some were stained.

Disappointing
Called about issues, never received call back. I am slightly vision impaired so The lack of decent lighting was a priority. Bulbs were missing from a couple fixtures and one lamp was only usable if you plugged it in each time. Access to most outlets were limited by furniture. As I stated I called with my concern and NEVER received a call back. The doorway to kitchen was partially blocked by furniture that was obviously not meant for kitchen. The drapes were falling off the hooks and were extremely difficult to open and close. The TABLE which could have been used for dining did not raise up. The bathroom was so small that a tall person who needed to use the toilet would not be able to close door. The only good thing was the view. Would NOT recommend this unit to anyone . The inconveniences put a HUGE shadow on a much needed vacation. Dollar for dollar this was a rip off.

Room 301 little harbor
Not what we thought we rented Handle on refrig freezer broken and note saying do not use since was glued Leg on futon front left was leaning and upon inspection has been repaired several times it appears with some kind of epoxy. We cannot use it as it will break. Thought was renting a condo because had kitchen Realize that was my mistake. Thought would have washer and dryer Again I did not see this unit did not have one. Had to ask for more towels. And we did receive them. Prob would not rent this unit again for the price. We are here for the races at East bay and not on our yearly vacation. We are used to much nicer area and room. Tried to book something close to racetrack so did not know area. Little harbor appears to be best place to stay in this area. Just wish I would have known to pick a different room for our stay. Have to sit on bed and watch tv. Only small wicker chair in the room. Very uncomfortable. Here from Sunday to Sunday. Long time to deal with. But unit appeared to be clean when we arrived. My husband is not impressed with the room and said we could have rented a 2 bedroom 2 bath condo in Indian rock beach where we stay in October every year and directly on the gulf for the week cheaper than here and drove back and forth to race track each night which is an hour drive to have a more comfortable stay and better accommodations but booked here because 16 mile to racetrack. Sorry for the 2 stars. Sent pictures of the damaged items in the room to property manager and have not received a reply. Only this review link.
