We went to Lubbock due to a family emergency with my daughter being flown Roswell, New Mexico to UMC in preterm labor. This home was exactly what we needed to be able rest and feel “at home” during the terrifying and stressful days. The beds were great. Perfect location. And the little park right down the street was great for my 5 year old granddaughter who was cooped up way too long in car rides and hospital rooms. Highly recommended! ##### Subrina M.
