Perfect 1 night stay

We really enjoyed the charm and character of this VRBO. The host was so kind to set up the extra twin mattress for us and we appreciated the snacks since we were traveling with two kids. We only stayed one night but almost wished we had a little more time at this beautiful studio VRBO!

We love staying at the Goldfish Loft. Everything is perfect, and it has the cutest decor. The snacks are so appreciated because there are always two teens with us. It’s our home away from home where we come to visit our son at college.

Fun one night stay

The Goldfish Loft is a unique and beautiful place to stay in Brownwood. We were there one night for a collegiate sport event and were charmed with our experience. The rental is very well appointed and within walking distance to great shops and restaurants. I would highly recommend it if you find yourself looking for a place to stay in Brownwood TX.
