Clean place - bed is too soft, almost like I was sitting in it. The shower water wasn’t reliable. It was hot, then cold, and there was no pattern to it.

Tiny, but good use of space.Reading light in living room would be nice.Daybed could use a mattress topper.TV service and availability very sketchy....no local channels...or if they were available, instructions on how to get normal cable TV stations. Husband went all weekend with NO FOOTBALL!!!Sketchy neighborhood and too close to bust freeway.BUT....overall nice place and very close to Baylor.

Close to Baylor, very short drive. Easy to locate after dark. Lock box is about knee level, so you do have to squat to access the keys. No worries about security in, and around, the home. Quiet neighborhood. Note: Toilet paper was single ply. Was surprised that with how cute, warm and welcoming the house was that the toilet paper would be subpar. That was my only negative.

Very cute place to stay. Very short drive to the silos. Neighborhood is old and ran down. At first, I didnt like it but no one bothered us. Bathroom is huge! The fan in the bedroom was a huge bonus. Looking to get one myself. I would stay again while traveling.

It was extremely quiet, and it was very near good eating places and near our event. There wasn't soap or shampoo in bathroom but luckily, we always carry some and there wasn't real coffee. If we'd known this, we would have taken some. Otherwise, it was quaint and well thought out.

Cute but needs some work

Property is cute and was clean. Many negatives I feel I must list, unfortunately.Major thing was AC units are extremely obnoxious. I read a review prior that said they were loud, and I thought no big deal, I like white noise when I sleep…. Absolutely not. This was a loud mechanical noise coming from both units. Don’t stay here if you are a light sleeper or need silence when you sleep.Other things to note…. Beds are very, very uncomfortable and scratchy cheap sheets. Nespresso machine but no coffee pods supplied to make it. Plugs in part of bedroom not working, so not able to use the TV or fan in there. Nice and big bathroom but no shower supplies such as body wash/ soap. Also hot water went out quickly. This could have easily been a 4/5 star experience, but needs time to fix these issues.

Beautiful place in need of some updates

The place was adorably decorated, and it was close to Baylor which we needed. It was not in the best neighborhood. The master bedroom mattress needs replaced as it was sagging and not comfortable. The espresso machine did not work, and we called the shower a sprinkle, because while it was beautiful, it lacked water pressure.

The heating system is not very efficient. The one in the bedroom goes on and off. This wasn’t good with the cold weather we had. We had no hot water the morning we left, so no showers!! We had an important meeting on our way to San Antonio and we were uncomfortable having not showered!

Sweet little cottage

Needed to be in Waco for a week to help my daughter with a large Baylor event. This was the perfect place - I LOVED the tub! It’s only a block from I-35 so could hear the interstate noise but not a deal breaker. I was there during a winter cold spell and the cottage was warm and cozy.There is no washer/dryer even though the listing says there is. The nespresso machine with the complimentary pods was a nice touch!
