    The smell of Marijuana was quite strong in our unit, especially the first few days. Contacted the property manager and was told it was coming from another university. Was offered a visit by the cleaning crew but I declined. The mounted TV in the living room is in an awful place resulting in hitting our heads on it several times. Need curtains on the door and the windows best the door to block the night lights. Having said all this, it is still a great little place and would likely stay again. Some minor issues would just make it even better!

    The safari suite was in a nice quiet location in Bradenton Beach. The king sized bed rolled you to the middle. The A/C was so loud when it kicked on that you could not hear the TV or have a conversation without shouting.In addition, the thermostat was preset on 73 degrees. It would allow us to lower the temperature, but always bumped back up to 73. We would wake up several times at night, hot, as 73 is too high to sleep comfortably.

    This house is in a great location, just across the street from the beach. Super convenient to the beach and restaurants. The rental is up a flight of stairs, so don’t pack your bag too heavy. The WiFi was too slow to stream a movie on the television. We use the kitchen quite a bit on vacations, but the refrigerator didn’t keep drinks very cold and the ice maker was slow to produce ice. Bed was comfortable and there was plenty of room in the rental for our family. There were no beach accessories, so you’ll need to bring your own.
