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.

Decent

This was just a place to sleep after a night spent at the theme park, so I was really looking for convenience and affordability, which it satisfied on both accounts. That being said, here are some areas that could use improvement: The gate is broken and doesn't lock. Not great for feeling safe or secure. Once inside the entryway it smells like cat pee for some reason. It's just right there by the door so I dunno what happened. The room itself was fine and didn't smell at all. There was a large discolored stain on the carpet beside the bed that probably needs to be professionally cleaned, but otherwise the room was clean. The bed is one of those foam block type mattresses and it's hard as a rock so if you like a softer feel, sorry, you're not gonna sleep great. The nicest part was the shower which is huge and has shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in little pump bottles. Happy to report the toilet has a bidet installed. Quite nice. All in all I'm happy with my choice since it met my primary needs well. It's super close to the park and definitely affordable. Neighborhood was quiet and it was generally a nice stay.

This place is for people staying for extended periods who want to minimize costs and are willing to adapt. It does not have all the usual amenities of a hotel. There were no cups, and one towel and one “rag” each. The room lock was loose, and the toilet lid was broken. However, it was clean. I would not want to walk in the neighborhood after dark.

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.

The smell of other people’s feces on the toilet paper in the provided trash can was quite unpleasant. It doesn’t make sense to not flush it down the toilet, as that’s the primary purpose of toilet paper. Additionally, we had to wait an unusually long time to enter the house. No one answered their phones, and we never received any emails or other information regarding the codes needed to enter until over half an hour later.
