Liked: Cleanliness
There is no staff. Everything is done remotely. The room was smaller than the pictures, and had a musty smell that was so bothersome that we only stayed for the first of a scheduled two day prepaid stay. Also, it's much further from downtown than it looks, which could be a difficult walk for older guests. Driving downtown would be a problem during the weekends when downtown parking is difficult to find.

The grounds are well cared for with a gazebo too. A short walk to a breakfast restaurant. A short drive to downtown for shops and restaurants. The accommodation was clean and comfortable.

A bit over priced , I wouldn't stay there again.
The room was clean and neat but the layout was odd. There is no door on the kitchen and the refrigerator was noisy all night, bathroom was a little tight and we also shared a balcony with another room. The online pre check-in and access was far more complicated than it needs to be. Threatening to charge if a guest takes any items (coffee, saop, sugar,etc.) was not very welcoming.

Some improvements needed.
Mirror in bathroom is not functional and lighting above mirror was flimsy and loose. Ceiling fan blades are in need of a serious cleaning. Shower faucet handles are loose which makes it difficult to turn water on/off. Lack of lighting at the house entrance door creates a hazard climbing the stairs and entering the home.

My family loved the place. Just loved the nature and the vintage interior of the house. It may be old but still well kept and maintained. We just enjoyed our stay and wished to stay more days at Mount Dora.

Check-in was a hassle. Then the lock would not lock as we were leaving our room. Had to have maintenance come over and fix it .Our room was on the gronud floor and the guests who were staying above us were up most of the night and we could hear every step they took. The floors were very creaky.

The Estate at Mt Dora is quiet and comfortable
Traveled to Mt Dora for my husband's birthday: biking, bites, bourbon, and browsing the local shops. The accommodations were about 10 blocks from downtown and an easy 10-15 minute walk. Our room, the Azalea, was on the second floor. Very spacious, and clean, quiet and had a comfy bed. Air conditioner was a little musty but you can get that in an older house. The house itself housed 4 units and another 4 units in a carriage house adjacent to the property. Host was very reachable and texted several times with messages and offered any help we might need. Parking on the premises made it convenient.
