Wonderful home! The house was beautiful and very clean. The washer/dryer was especially helpful. Beds were super comfortable. The home is a beautiful old home with lots of charm. The host provided all that was needed and very communicative. We traveled with our adult children- 21 and 19 so the loft area was ideal for them. The tenant and dogs is not a factor rather a bonus!

The property was very clean, organized, and comfortable to stay in. The host was quick with her responses and was able to assist us with our needs.

This house is a beautiful craftsman style home with charming decor and fixtures. Spacious, roomy, and exceptionally well maintained. The neighborhood is wonderful and within walking distance of restaurants and the Deep Ellum district. Very convenient to Downtown Dallas as well. The hosts were extremely helpful and responsive. The little roof deck was wonderful and the swing on the front porch is delightful.
6 / 10Average·Jun 2023
The neighborhood was quiet and the house was beautifully decorated. Abundance of coffee makers in each room. In the upstairs bathroom, toiletries were of nice quality and plenty of towels. Bathroom was not fully useful due to sloped/low ceilings, lack of shower curtain/way to mount a hand held attachment in 3rd floor bathroom. The porch off the upper bedroom was darling, should treat area for wasps. Lights on inside of the patio should not be on a timer, stayed on late and made the room very bright. Note kitchen was within the upstairs bedroom/living room, so the person or couple who goes to bed last AND wakes up first should sleep in 3rd floor bedroom/living room. Thermostats for the 3rd floor was set to 71 but lowest temperature got down to was 73. AC worked on the 2nd floor for two other bedrooms. Thermostats and switches were in awkward places. Loved automatic motion sensor lights going up the stairs to the 3rd floor. Extremely strong /multiple air fresheners were used and were unnecessary. A living tennent had access to the 1st floor and that was very uncomfortable. We booked with Vrbo to ensure we wouldn’t be sharing space. The 1st night the home was engulfed in the smell of someone smoking pot. It would have been nice to lock bedroom doors knowing someone else was in the house. Felt more like a frat house than we expected. Overall, nice place, needed more description, not very conducive for a family of 5 to hang out together in the house.
