Short stay at Zen Homes in Tampa near Bush Gardens
I have been traveling to Tampa area for work for nearly 25 years and I have stayed at many different hotels, this house was much nicer and had all the comforts of home, no horrible smoke or moldy smelling rooms, everything was clean and comfortable the bathroom was perfect and . The check in process was fast and convenient. I will definitely be staying here again soon. In addition to the comfortable room I also saved money compared to the local hotels.
It was excellent for the price. It was missing some stuff to do some cooking. it was missing some stuff to cook. Oil, salt, pepper. can opener ,,, So check what is there before doing your grocery.
The neighborhood may be a littlw sketchy for some upper middle class, but we came across no issues to cause alarm. The house was clean and we enjoyed our rest as been traveling for weeks. Ace, house manager, was beyond polite! Refreshing...
We would come again.
Very convenient, clean and nice. I like that you have the option of your own private bathroom if you choose. Although towels were provided, wash clothes weren’t which didn’t make much sense.

One thing I wish I knew about this property first off is that you’re getting a room in a shared house. That being said, we didn’t have any issues with other tenants. The property was clean and each room had its own electronic lock and each room had a mini fridge assigned to it.
However, only 1 room had a private bathroom. The other 3 or 4 rooms shared the same bathroom. This wasn’t too much of a concern, but there was a sign on the trash can that said to throw everything away, including toilet paper. I don’t know if that’s a normal thing for the area, but being from Idaho, throwing used toilet paper in the garbage seemed a bit odd. My wife and I ended up driving to a nearby gas station to use the bathroom due to this.
The property owner was very quick to respond to any questions I had, but I had to ask each time for check-in and check-out instructions, they weren’t automatically sent me to as was implied.
The other thing to note is that people will drive through the area in the middle of the night blasting music from their cars with the bass turned up. My wife and I were woken up by this more than once during our stay.
Overall, not a bad place to stay for a vacation, but next time I’ll spend a little more for a place I can flush toilet paper.
Everything was perfect and the communication was great. It was a huge convenience for my mini trip.

It's a house with four rooms and you share the bathroom in the kitchen some of the guests were a little loud but not for too long it's good if you just want to rush your head for one night you have a TV air conditioning in a bed and a shower in the morning that's it so you get with your paid for
