Cozy SMB Themed Apt in the Heart of Historic SPR!

We recently refreshed this apt to harken back to your favorite plumber themed NES classic. If you’re a Mario, Luigi, or Princess Toadstool (we don’t enjoy hosting Bowsers) this is the perfect spot for you! Yoshis are welcome too. :) You’ll be steps from restaurants, coffee shops, and an axe throwing venue! This apt is next to a busy intersection so you will experience road noise. This is a wonderful yet developing urban neighborhood. Also, large vehicles are not recommended for guests at this property. The parking lot is relatively small / crowded and large vehicles parking here make it difficult for other guests to get in and out of the parking lot. There is nearby street parking available for larger vehicles but it will not be in the gated area. Guests have access to the entire 2 BR / 1 BA apartment with a brand new kitchen, bathroom, tankless hot water heater, and fresh paint, lights, ceiling fans, barn-door style closet doors, and new bedroom and living room furniture, including a new 65" TV and a 43" TV in the master bedroom. The master bedroom features a brand new king-sized bed complete with memory foam mattress, a night stand, a chest of drawers, a desk for work, and a closet. The 2nd bedroom features a queen-sized bed, nightstand, chest of drawers, and a closet. The living room includes a sleeper sofa, an island with bar stools. The generous kitchen is stocked with utensils, a microwave, coffee pot, toaster, refrigerator/freezer, oven/range, cooking utensils/cutlery and plates. The freshly renovated bathroom has a sumptuous walk in shower with glass door supplied with towels, and shower items (body wash, shampoo, conditioner). Guests have access to in unit laundry and gated parking - limit 1 car per guest in the gated parking area due to its size Springfield is a great neighborhood for walking and biking! Jacksonville’s Skyway, with limited service around the Urban Core area is a half mile to the south and is co-located with Jacksonville’s central bus station. Ride sharing services are also great options as well and driving is preferable for areas well outside of central Jax (St Augustine, Brunswick, Gainesville, etc.) PLEASE CONTACT US PRIOR TO BOOKING IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO REVIEW RENTAL AGREEMENT. We charge for additional guests above a fixed amount. This amount and additional charge varies by unit type, size, and configuration. If you input the correct guest count when you make your reservation the amount the booking site indicated as the total cost will not change (due to guest count). We ask for confirmation of guest count after you complete your booking. If you need to increase your guest count after booking confirmation due to a booking error, this could result in a price increase. Finally, we verify guest count via external cameras located on our properties. In the event that we notice a guest count at the property that is higher than reported, we reserve the right to ask for additional guest fees that would be double the amount we would have charged prior to check-in. Kindly refer to the following guidelines regarding fees for extra guests: Studio & 1 BR units - $25 per guest/night after 2 guests (i.e. 3 guests would be $25/night extra and 4 guests would be $50/night extra) 2 BR units - $30 per guest/night after 4 guests (i.e. 5 guests would be $30/night extra and 6 guests would be $60/night extra) 3 BR unit - $35 per guest/night after 6 guests (i.e. 7 guests would be $35/night extra and 8 guests would be $70/night extra) 4 BR units - $40 per guest/night after 8 guests (i.e. 9 guests would be $40/night extra and 10 guests would be $80/night extra) 5 BR+ units - $45 per guest/night after 10 guests (i.e. 11 guests would be $45/night extra and 12 guests would be $90/night extra) We are pet friendly and charge $30 per night per pet for short term stays. For longer stays, we charge $150 per week and $300 per month per pet. This fee is not included in the accommodation fare rate. We will send a request for the additional funds once the number of pets is confirmed after booking. PLEASE ENSURE YOU INDICATE THE CORRECT NUMBER OF GUESTS IN YOUR RESERVATION. We charge for guests over a set amount so if you indicate an inaccurate amount of guests and we see that you have brought more guests than indicated we reserve the right to charge you double the standard rate (we have in house management and in building video surveillance that we use to validate guest quantity). This apartment is on Main St so you may occasionally encounter street noise since there is sometimes traffic here. A TV with an HDTV antenna is available but there is no cable. You are welcome to log into your streaming services. If you want to watch sports - Crispy’s (less than a block down the street from you) is great for watching a game while grabbing a delicious pizza! Also, Saturday check-ins and check-outs are (generally) not allowed unless you are booking a stay that is >7 days, with the exception of some specific weekends (FL-GA and TPC Sawgrass weekends are a few examples). I may allow an exception to this policy (depending on the specific weekend and season) but reserve the right not to do so or to ask you to modify of cancel a reservation starting or ending on a Saturday. There is a single parking spot available to guests in the gated area directly behind the building. The parking spots are a bit narrow, so be advised that it’s tight for larger vehicles. There is ample free street parking available to guests with more than one car directly in front and all around the building (particularly in the block just south of the building). The following additional charges apply to late check outs/early arrivals, assuming I can offer this at all (I often can’t so please never assume this will be allowed): 1 hr or less early arrival or late departure: $100 1-2 hr early arrival/late departure: $200 2-3 hr early arrival/late departure: $300 3+ hr early arrival/late departure: $100/hr or the cost of an additional night’s stay, whichever is more These fees are primarily in place to highly discourage late checkouts/early arrivals since this causes my cleaning service undue stress to prep the unit prior to your or the next set of guest’s arrival. This also increases the need for them to rush/cut corners, increasing the likelihood of them not cleaning the unit to the high standard which I hold them to. We have a Nest thermostat in place in this apartment and do limit temperatures to the following ranges to reduce our environmental impact: Summer - 70 to 85 degrees F Winter - 60 to 75 degrees F If this is outside of your comfort zone then this apartment may not be a good fit for you. ***Finally, smoking is strictly forbidden anywhere on the property - the apartment, atrium and building common areas, or rear parking lot*** ***If we find cigar/cigarette butts of any kind on the property or evidence of smoking (ash on flat surfaces, empty cigarette packs, etc.) we will assess a $500 cleaning fee in addition to the regular cleaning fee*** For guests requiring a pack n play, high chair, or any other non-standard item, please submit your request at least 7 days before check-in to ensure availability. If the request is made less than 7 days prior to check-in, we will make every effort to accommodate it, but cannot guarantee availability. Finally, guests are strictly forbidden from bringing firearms or items associated with them (including guns, bullets, gunpowder, shells, magazines, silencers, etc.) on this property whether or not they are licensed. If you violate this policy or we find evidence that you did (e.g. firearms or bullets are discovered by our cleaners following your stay) we will assess a $1000 fine.
