We had an 11 night stay and everything was exactly as advertised and the space was a very roomy studio with a very comfy bed. Since we were there for an extended stay, we took advantage of the washer and dryer and they worked great!! We have several trips to the Waco area every year to visit family, and we will surely stay there again. Thanks Michele for the easy communication and getting to know you both!!
