Nice place. Great AC, had a little trouble logging into Netflix and getting the tv sorted but finally figured it out. Shower in master dropped a lot of water outside the shower, really suggest a curtain or something to keep it in. Bed was comfy. Pillows not so much but no place (even hotels have good pillows). I did not like that there was no desk to work, had to work at the table and there was hair left in the sinks, around the toilet, and in the restroom. Eww.

Everything was nice. I would only suggest more towels are needed or to be told to bring more and to switch out the comforters for summer weather.

Girls Trip
Weekend trip with my daughter and grand daughters. The house is lovely and well appointed! I love the renovation. It is compact, but the rooms are spacious. The girls had fun with corn hole in the backyard, and we could easily keep an eye on them. Although we decided not to bring the dog, the dog bowls and treats were a thoughtful extra. I would highly recommend this property!

Mid-Week stay
We loved our time here in Waco. During the day we watching basketball as our kids were playing in the State Basketball tournament, but the mornings and evenings at the Waco Victorian were great. The house was clean and inviting and the 3 bathrooms were very helpful for my wife and I, my father-in-law, and my daughter & her friend to not be in each other's way. The neighborhood is an older neighborhood with a mixed newly renovated homes with some that desperately need renovating, but the neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. The baked Bliss bakery just around the corner was amazing and we went every morning we were there. They don't open til 9am, so don't go too early. We may definitely stay here again next February if we find ourselves in the State finals again.

If you are looking for a well kept space where you don’t need a yard, this is it! The patio has two nice seating areas and the home has three full baths with two attached to bedrooms! The kitchen has all the basics to cook! The internet and TV functioned well 🤗

Baylor visit
We came to visit Baylor and I chose to stay close to campus. I live old things so your house fit the bill. It did not disappoint and the three bathrooms with two teenage girls was a plus. If she decides to go to Baylor we will be staying again!

Wonderful stay!
Just completed a four night stay with my husband and adult daughter as we made our first trip to Texas to view the solar eclipse. This property was absolutely ideal for a family stay! We had everything we needed and then some! Separate bedrooms and baths provided privacy and comfort and the living/kitchen/dining rooms gave us plenty of great space to come together. The backyard deck with its comfy furniture provided a great spot for eclipse viewing, and nice spot just to enjoy the sunshine! The whole house was spotlessly clean; which was much appreciated. Ashley was a very responsive host! There was a tiny glitch with the fridge which Ashley alerted us to before we even arrived; but she was right on top of it and instantly provided a solution so our stay was not impacted in any way. We understand that unexpected things happen and a responsive host that wants to ensure you are comfortable is the best! Thank you Ashley for offering such a nice property for our first visit to Texas! Would highly recommend!
