Benetta is very helpful and responsive to questions and gives great details on directions to find the property. It is situated outside Waco on farm land and is so quiet and peaceful. It is the perfect weekend getaway for football games or visiting the Waco area. Plus the bed was the most comfortable mattress ever and wonderful full size shower. The perfect space for one or two people. ##### Melissa D. Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### SHALIN B. 9 May 2024 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy #### NO help when at location, dated needs attention. Found the location to be ideal right next to heritage homestead (literal walk to end of driveway) and minutes from Waco. However, probably closer to 10 yrs older then photos in listing. Roof chairs were broken from sun+ aging it appears. Despite our trying to contact listed # by phone and text provided in our reservations there was absolutely NO reply or help. The light blocking curtains by the bed have stains, holes and are shorter then the opening. Tv wood art doors are missing which cause lights on all night to look at, A/C is filthy woke with sore throats! Fridge compressor is making loud noises. Flooring is missing in several locations making the bar stool chairs by the wall table uneven and hard to move. Found shower handle to have a steady leak from behind the handle. The front door drags with much effort over the wood front patio platform area leaving grooves in the wood and do not seal at the bottom. Which is probably why we found a roach when we moved a sealed bag off of the counter! The keurig buttons only 3 out of the 4 work and the one for the size coffee mugs provided is the one broken. One of the top steps to the roof is so weathered and aged it has split in half!! Unsafe! Dishware provided was missing mates. View off the top porch is better part of the property and unusable due to safety and access issues the steps and broken chair cause. Firepit rusted n smashed! Greatly disappointed rare trip for our 25th anniversary. no refunds, got stuck. ##### SHALIN B.

This place was cute! The land around it is beautiful. The Murphy bed was comfortable but didn’t lay completely flat, it was at a slight incline. I stayed with my friend for a girls trip and we had a good time. Check in was so easy. The rooftop was fun. Great for one night ##### Nicole R.

Located in a quiet area, the rooftop deck was a great place to just hangout and enjoy the weather. The place has all the essential amenities and a good number of local restaurants and stores to choose from for meals (Doordash delivers to the site as well!). ##### Brad Stayed 1 night in May 2022 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Fairmont Austin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Fairmont-Austin.h18156638.Hotel-Information) > > [AC Hotel by Marriott Houston Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-AC-Hotel-By-Marriott-Houston-Downtown.h36715633.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Houston/Galleria](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-HoustonGalleria.h10620692.Hotel-Information) > > [Downright Austin, A Renaissance Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Downright-Austin.h7518.Hotel-Information) > > [Staybridge Suites Houston Galleria Area by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-Staybridge-Suites-Houston-Galleria-Area.h57536940.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Austin University Capitol District](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Austin-University-Capitol-District.h66911977.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Dallas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dallas-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Dallas.h24753.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Americas-Houston](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-Hilton-Americas-Houston.h976144.Hotel-Information) > > [Sonesta Hotel Houston IAH Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-Sonesta-Hotel-Houston-IAH-Airport.h23787.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Austin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Austin.h20597750.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Houston Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Houston.h20005.Hotel-Information) > > [The Reside](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-The-Reside.h22169664.Hotel-Information) > > [The Driskill, in The Unbound Collection by Hyatt](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-The-Driskill.h425573.Hotel-Information) > > [Magnolia Hotel Dallas Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dallas-Hotels-Magnolia-Hotel-Dallas-Downtown.h282336.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Dallas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dallas-Hotels-Fairmont-Dallas.h18280.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Indigo Austin Downtown - University by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Hotel-Indigo-Austin-Downtown-University.h12294834.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton University of Houston](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-Hilton-University-Of-Houston.h40758.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt House Austin/Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Hyatt-House-AustinDowntown.h17061159.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Austin Downtown Capitol](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-DoubleTree-Suites-By-Hilton-Austin.h24523.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Austin NW - Four Points by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Austin-NW-Four-Points.h9836657.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place Austin Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Austin-Downtown.h5437747.Hotel-Information) > > [South Congress Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-South-Congress-Hotel.h9869259.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Sheffield](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sheffield-Hotels.d5682.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Moody Gardens Hotel, Spa and Convention Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galveston-Hotels-Moody-Gardens-Hotel.h157238.Hotel-Information) > > [Residence Inn by Marriott Austin Downtown/Convention Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Residence-Inn-By-Marriott-Austin-DowntownConvention-Center.h1453501.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Dallas Downtown by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dallas-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Hotel-Dallas-Downtown.h40414.Hotel-Information) ### Flights ---
