We enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and looked just like the photos. Short distance to the Moody Center. There was construction by the Moody Center and freeway.
Such a lovely property. The size was perfect for my 3 grown kids and myself. The living and dining areas were very large and there was plenty of space for us to spread out and watch TV or play games. The mattresses were extremely comfortable and everyone loved not having to share a bed. The yard is beautiful and we enjoyed being able to sit out on the deck or porch in the evenings. The neighborhood was very nice and quiet and it was conveniently located. Check-in and check-out was super easy, and I loved that we didn’t have to do any additional cleaning before we left. The kitchen has some basic cookware and utensils, but be sure to bring anything special you might need if you plan to cook. We had a great time and would definitely stay here again if the occasion arises!

Highlight of this home, both guest bedrooms had one soft mattress and one firm mattress. Guest bath needs work, and no water pressure at all in the guest shower. All six of us had to use one shower. House was not stocked very well bring your own everything, except toilet paper. Fridge and freezer were very dirty, house needs to be deep cleaned, lots of dust, dirty cabinets, counters, just all around needs to be cleaned better in between guests. Plus side, great parking, great living room space, open concept kitchen to dining to living. Lots of great restaurants near by, HEB close as well. Both grills outside needed to be cleaned as well, and fire pit was full of charcoal.
