We stayed here to move our daughter into her dorm room and it was a nice stay. We didn’t find the double bed room until check out morning because we thought it was one of the “secure privacy” rooms to another unit. We made due with the upstairs bedroom but it was kinda hot upstairs. Parking for Unit B was good to our needs. Fit two SUV’s easy. Overall we will be back to staycation here to visit our daughter. The historic building was well preserved in it’s natural beauty with creating a 3 unit housing complex. ![Beautiful Kitchen Table ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/79a1ae78-a80c-41c0-bcdc-d2ecf13bb0f6-1755623994989.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Haylee Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melissa 12 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great stay!

Looking out our window we saw three deer resting in the strip of trees behind the property, wonderful to see since you’re in the middle of town. Only negative: hot and cold settings are reversed in the shower so I got the cold shower and my husband was smart enough to figure it out.

The old wood floors and the historic architecture were beautiful. The price for what felt like a two-bedroom apartment was phenomenal! I would recommend a shower curtain kit around the gorgeous clawfoot tub. Showering is a bit cumbersome and it would preserve the gorgeous wood floors. We would stay again! ##### Ana Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Scott 3 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Staff & service #### Nice Place We enjoyed how they renovated an historic church. Nicely done. There are also alot of eaterys in walking distance. You do have to gather the linings and clean up before you leave. Although this may be normal for this sort of place. Also, there is a lot of road noise as it faces the road. Its also worth noteing, the instructions/check in are done through messaging. It wasn't a problem. just know before you go. ##### Scott Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shirlee 24 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely, clean and comfortable! My daughter and I spent one night here before touring TXST. We were very impressed with the architecture and Interior design! The place was very clean, temperature was well controlled and really overall positive! Only thing that was a little bit weird was the door that connected to someone else's closet (we put the chest in fron of it), and that the house wasn't lit up from the outside so it was a little bit challenging to see from the street in the dark , in the rain. Overall- Lovely!!!!! We are likely to come again with more family members! The bed was so comfy- I slept much better than I normally do in hotels! ##### Shirlee Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Brad 24 Nov 2024 Liked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Dirty comforter Comforter in left room had a big stain.

Not likely to return. ##### Lameka Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Laura 10 Feb 2025 Disliked: Staff & service #### Terrible Check-In Just know if you book same day you may not receive your check-in code before arrival. My daughter had been released from the ER after an asthma attack and needed a room. I booked early afternoon, with check-in at 4\. She arrived at 6pm and waited outside until 7:05 before getting the check-in code. I called the number listed numerous times with no answer and spent 40 minutes online with Hotels.com trying to get it resolved. I finally received a call from someone at Downtown Abbey and simply received an "I'm sorry. I've been away from the phone." It was an unacceptable response. Hotels.com told me codes could take up to 24 hours to receive, even with same day bookings but admitted it was not posted on the site. I didn't ask for a full refund, but I did request some compensation for the terrible service and no notice codes were not guaranteed by check-in. That was refused. After using Hotels.com for years, this is the first problem and I am very disappointed in their response. ##### Laura Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 11 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Close to Texas State Went to visit my daughter at Texas State and it was very close to campus.
