Terrible do not stay here
The house is in a really unsafe neighborhood and we did not feel comfortable staying there with our family. We called the property management multiple times to express our concerns and they never called us back. The actually house inside and out was clean and we would have been fine if the neighborhood was safe. I do not recommend staying here

Beautiful home!
The property is beautiful, very well maintained and clean. The neighborhood looks a bit rundown but we felt totally safe. The location is great to get to all the main attractions. If we go back to Fort Worth we will definitely stay here again. The management team was fantastic! Very prompt with responses to any questions I had.

So cute, clean and plenty of room
This place was great and extremely conveniently located for what we had going on. The only downside is that the neighborhood is a little questionable. We had a lot going on and really were only there to sleep (plus we had our husbands with us), so I felt okay....but I don't know that I would suggest this place for a "girls trip". It does look like the area is getting cleaned up, so maybe in the future it will feel safer, but again the actually house was amazing!

Great House, Great Backyard!
Had a great stay at the property. Bedrooms were large, backyard was large, house was well-furnished and had lots of supplies in the kitchen. Truly had a great stay here and could not say enough good things. A couple of notes:
-The neighborhood is definitely transitioning/gentrifying--some rough parts but we never felt unsafe within a few blocks of the house.
-Very close/walkable to food/drink on South Main, although the walk over I-35W to get there isn't exactly scenic.
-No windows in the upstairs bedroom/bathroom at all (although this was kind of a plus for a light sleeper).

Loved the house and central location. The neighborhood is not so great, which is only reason it doesn’t get the full stars.
