FULLY REMODELED! Built in 1937, this historic building still has plenty of charm, but everything in this studio was renovated in late 2019: New floors, shower, cabinets, granite countertops, appliances, and furniture!

Located on quiet, conveniently located Riverview Drive (east of US1), everything Downtown Melbourne has to offer is just a short walk away.

THE SPACE
Slightly over 300 sqft, this studio apartment is perfect for one guest but will also comfortably accommodate two.

Riverview Studio is located on the first floor of The Riverview, a quad-plex containing three other fully remodeled Airbnb units and a shared laundry room. We recently insulated between the interior walls and floor/ceilings, but this is an old building and sound still travels easily. We expect all guests to be respectful of each other and keep noise to a minimum.

If you are looking for a place to party, THIS IS NOT THE PLACE FOR YOU. If you are looking for a quiet, comfortable space in Downtown Melbourne where you can relax and get a great nights sleep, look no further!

LAUNDRY
In addition to this completely private one bedroom apartment, you will have access to a shared laundry room should you need it. Detergent, fabric softener, and even an iron are all provided.

TV
Hulu + Live TV (for more than 65 live TV channels including local networks) is provided and will give you access to thousands of free movies and shows. You are also welcome to log in to any streaming services that you subscribe to (Netflix, Disney+, YouTubeTV and so on).

House Rules

-Not suitable for children and infants.
-No smoking or vaping inside or near the building.
-No pets.
-No parties or events.
-No locals (Brevard County) without prior approval.
-No unauthorized guests: Only those on the reservation are allowed on the property.
-Do not tamper with or obstruct the outdoor security cameras in any way.
-Do not move any furniture.
-Do not view or download any illegal content via WIFI. Violators will be reported.
-Please be respectful of your neighbors. No loud music or TV.
-Please wash all dirtied dishes/silverware/cookware/etc. and treat our property with respect.

The above rules are in place for the safety, security, and comfort of our guests and the protection of the property. These should be straight-forward and easy to follow for 99% of guests. For those who choose to break the rules, please be aware of the following:

*A fee of $250 will be assessed if there is any evidence of smoking (anything) inside the building.
*A fee of $100 per additional person will be assessed if additional visitors not on the reservation enter the property without prior approval, and you will be requested to immediately vacate the premises with no refund - THIS IS NOT THE PLACE TO HAVE PARTY.
*A fee of $100 will be assessed if you bring a pet inside the building, and you will be requested to immediately vacate the premises with no refund.
*Tampering with or obstructing any security camera will result in a $200 fee, and you will be requested to immediately vacate the premises with no refund.
*We do NOT ask guests to do any cleaning beyond the cookware/dishes/silverware they use during their stay. We do not ask people to clean, strip beds, wash towels, take out the trash, etc, but we do expect people to treat our property with respect. If the unit is left overly-dirty, to the point where it takes our housekeeper much longer than usual to clean, resulting in a higher fee charged to us, this fee will be passed on to the guest.

We have almost never had to take any of the above actions for any of our properties and certainly don't ever want to. Please follow our simple rules and don't trash the place, so everyone (you, the other guests in the building, our housekeepers, and your hosts) can have a 5 star experience. :)

LIABILITY
You as the guest shall indemnify and hold harmless the property host against any and all claims of personal injury or personal property damage or loss arising from the use of the premises, regardless of the nature of the accident, injury or loss. Also, expressly recognize that any insurance for property damage or loss which the host may have does not cover your personal property. Your agreement to stay on the premises represents your agreement to these terms.

Payment Policy

When making a reservation, guests are required to provide payment in accordance with the following schedule: For reservation made more than 7 days prior to the check-in date, 50% of the total reservation cost must be paid at the time of booking, with the remaining 50% due 7 days before check-in. For reservations made less than 7 days before check-in, the full reservation cost will be charged at the time of booking.

Cancellation Policy

CANCELLATION POLICY/TRAVEL INSURANCE
We understand that circumstances can change and guests may need to cancel their reservation. To facilitate this process, we have established the following cancellation and refund policy:

Guests who cancel their reservation more than 30 days prior to their scheduled check-in date will receive a full refund of the initial 50% payment made at the time of booking, less approximately 3% of the payment amount to cover non-refundable credit card fees. Guests who cancel their reservation between 7 and 30 days before check-in will not receive a refund of the initial 50% payment, but will not be charged the remaining 50% balance due 7 days before check-in, thereby receiving a 50% refund of the total reservation cost. Cancellations made within 7 days of the check-in date are non-refundable.

We hope that this policy is clear and transparent, and we encourage guests to contact us with any questions or concerns they may have prior to booking. We are running a small business and are not able to make exceptions to this policy to provide larger refunds if you need to cancel your reservation within 30 days of your arrival date for any reason, including due to any weather-related events, Covid-19, family emergencies, etc. It is also our policy to not accept any reservation change requests made within 30 days of your arrival date that involve moving your reservation dates into the future.

We strongly recommend that you obtain Travel Insurance for your trip in case of any unforeseen circumstances that could lead to you needing to cancel your reservation. A simple online search for "travel insurance" will provide you with many options.

Notes

CHILDREN
This unit is not suitable for children.

PRICING
A note about pricing: You may notice that the daily rate fluctuates as you browse through my availability calendar. This is because I use a third-party software that automatically updates my listings' prices to ensure they remain competitive and stay BELOW the market rate for comparable properties in the area. Daily prices change due to season, hotel occupancy rates, last minute availability, and so on - basically supply and demand. It's a very nifty tool that ensures my prices are fair and leads to us having close to 100% occupancy all year long.

PESTS
We have regular preventative pest control services at all of our properties and very rarely see any bugs because of this, but this is Florida, and the occasional pest (or cute gecko/anole) could find its way inside. In the unlikely event that you do see a bug, we would be happy to send pest control to retreat the property (this is part of the service we pay for), but you will not be eligible for any type of refund because of this.
