Overall great stay!

We had a great stay! The condo had a great feel and very comfortable. Perfect size for our family. We loved that it was downtown and close to all the sites we wanted to see. The only reason I did 4 stars for location is because it was right next to a bar that was pretty loud till about 3am but it wasn’t a huge inconvenience for us because us & our kids use sound machines. They did provide ear plugs so you can tell they were considerate of the guests staying there. Overall we loved it and we would definitely stay here again!

So comfortable and convenient!

Our family had a wonderful stay in this very nicely appointed place: they thought of everything! I have never seen such a well-supplied kitchen in a rental, with all manner of cookware & dishes & glasses, plus coffee & snacks! Lots of room to spread out & walking distance to The Silos! Highly recommended!

Better than expected

Everything was just better than advertised. Location was in a great area. Parking and entry to the building was easy. The rental itself was well stocked in anything you would need. Plenty of seating spaces and storage areas for clothes. The beds were comfortable. Communication with the managers was great. I will be staying here again if ever in the area.

Great property, great location!

My daughter and I loved our stay at the Beary Sweet Magnolia Retreat. We went to Waco for a girls trip and the condo was just what we needed. It was clean and organized with everything we needed. The kitchen has everything you need if you plan to cook. The host even provides 'makeup' towels to remove makeup! The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were very clean. It was close to everything we wanted to do in Waco. We were able to walk to all things Magnolia, the Dr. Pepper museum, and many boutiques.

Perfect Downtown Loft

What a fantastic loft! Great location right next to fabled coffee shop, unit is on the 6th floor with panoramic views. Beautiful unit, tastefully decorated, beds were very comfortable and kitchen was well equipped with everything you will need! There is some downtown noise, but AC and fans drown most of it out.Will definitely hope this unit is available for our next visit to Waco!

Bought some way 2 expensive horses!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this place! Only thing I was disappointed in was the bar below on Friday and Saturday night kept our kids and my husband and I awake till wee hours. Of course that’s not their fault! It was a college football game weekend! Thought it was strange that there was ear plugs in with the delicious provides snacks! Place was beautiful, clean, and cozy!! Stay here../ unless u can’t handle loud young energy starting around 11pm on weekends! Honestly if our kids weren’t with us…… we would have joined them!

Shhhhhh…

I really don’t want to give this condo such a high rating because I’d really like to keep it my secret, but I can’t in good conscience not tell you how amazing it was. It’s even more beautiful in person and is located perfectly downtown in the middle of all things fun and 5 minutes from Baylor. Had it not been 105 degrees, we would have walked everywhere. I did make the mistake of walking down to the river trail close by and came back down 5 pounds from sweat and decided that car life was for me, but it’s absolutely in the perfect location to walk to the Silos, restaurants and bars when it’s not as hot as the surface of the sun. ;) The property manager was incredibly attentive when we had a couple of questions. My 19 year-old daughter begged me to try to purchase the loft for her to live in while at Baylor (as if), so there’s definitely a cool factor that appeals across age groups! There is typical downtown noise at night, but the owner provided earplugs and white noise, so it really wasn’t noticeable. But if you think that might bother you, then don’t stay…please don’t. Because I want to keep this place to myself! If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!

Silorific!

Absolutely perfect in so many ways - the decor, amenities, location to Magnolia and the VIEW of the silos!! I love that they thought of every need - even to remove the window screen on the far left windows in the living room so you had unobstructed view of the silos for pictures!! BUT - it's BRIGHT at night - thank God I brought a blackout curtain with me for the bedroom window or else I'd never get any sleep. It's also LOUD - there's the train that comes through at 3? 4 am? Whistle blowing constantly to herald it's arrival - but that's only during the week - so thank goodness Friday/Sat. night didn't have that. But - there's also a bar/club directly below the building - which pumps music very loudly until 2am every night. Hence the very well thought out and appreciated amenities in the unit of earplugs and noise machines - which once you're there you go ohhhhh... ok... lol But the LOCATION can't be beat. Walking distance to restaurants and the Silos was absolutely amazing. All in all I'd stay again in a heartbeat but would bring stronger earplugs ;)
