This place was wonderful!! Host was very attentive and kind and will go out of their way to make sure your stay is great! Beds were super comfy, kitchen was stocked and it was the perfect accommodation for our weekend. Just FYI, if you are staying over a Friday and Saturday Eve….and plan to be in bed before 2am….theres a bar across the street that plays music extremely loud….if you are a light sleeper….it could be an issue for you. We called management and they filed a noise complaint, but they didn’t adjust the volume and it kept us up until they closed. Management was very apologetic, but it’s the city of Waco’s responsibility to get control of noise ordinance! Still giving a 5 star because the property itself is perfect!!!

Perfect Location Beautiful Loft Attentive & Accommodating Staff

I have made 7 trips to Waco and have stayed at some wonderful properties, this one was my favorite by far! have a son in his 3rd year at Baylor and this was conveniently located to his school and was close to the Silos and wonderful eateries. The management company addressed a couple issues right away and were most attentive and accommodating. I can’t wait to stay there again!

We had a wonderful stay at this modern downtown condo during our daughter’s Baylor orientation. The space was stylish, comfortable, and perfectly located, making our trip truly enjoyable. The host was exceptional—kind, responsive, and incredibly understanding when we had to leave unexpectedly due to a family loss. They told us not to worry about a thing, which meant the world during such a difficult time. We’re so grateful for their compassion and highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area!

We stayed at this condo for a family wedding in town. What stood out? The condo is beautiful with a lovely view and super clean. The location is perfect with lots of great restaurants and coffee shops within walking distance. One thing to know: if you stay on a Friday and Saturday night and want to sleep between the hours of 10pm-2am, this may not be the place for you. Even with the earplugs and white noise fan provided in our rooms, the music from the bar below may keep you awake. The host was excellent with communication regarding this known issue calling in a noise complaint and noting that the city is in the works to "move the outside band out of downtown."

Absolutely stunning condo! Plenty of stuff to do within walking distance including shops, Magnolia, walk along the river walk, bars and restaurants. Loved Pignetti’s Italian restaurant and Pivovar. Great vibes, food and drinks. Margaritas at Hecho en Waco were great. Short walk to Magnolia and little shops. Overall fantastic would surely stay here again!
