Very cute place to stay. Very short drive to the silos. Neighborhood is old and ran down. At first, I didnt like it but no one bothered us. Bathroom is huge! The fan in the bedroom was a huge bonus. Looking to get one myself. I would stay again while traveling.
This little cottage was a great place to stay. Close to everything we had planned. Very quaint house with lots of thoughtful touches. Would stay again.

Beautiful place in need of some updates
The place was adorably decorated, and it was close to Baylor which we needed. It was not in the best neighborhood. The master bedroom mattress needs replaced as it was sagging and not comfortable. The espresso machine did not work, and we called the shower a sprinkle, because while it was beautiful, it lacked water pressure.
It’s a very comfortable little house to just sit back and relax and having all the eating places around and close to places you would like to see in Waco.
This is a cute little place perfect for our needs. Very clean! Air container a little noisy so bring ear plugs, but beds comfortable. Close to Baylor which is why we were in town. Would stay again!!
The cottage was perfect for our stay in Waco. It's close to Magnolia and lots of restaurants. It's very quaint and has a lot of charm, if looking for a cozy place to stay.
Needed to be in Waco for a week to help my daughter with a large Baylor event. This was the perfect place - I LOVED the tub! It’s only a block from I-35 so could hear the interstate noise but not a deal breaker. I was there during a winter cold spell and the cottage was warm and cozy.There is no washer/dryer even though the listing says there is. The nespresso machine with the complimentary pods was a nice touch!
The location was excellent. The home was small but was good for just me. The home was located to restaurants and to the workshop that I needed to attend.

Everything was perfect, except the main bed was terrible uncomfortable and the bed squeaked with every move.
