Great House. Location Just Okay.
The house is great. Clean and comfortable. Of the reviews, 20 of the 22 did not mention the location but only how amazing the house was. Out of the two just said to be aware of the noise from the street, and the other gave a fairly harsh assessment. I figured with 20 positive and really just one negative review, it could be dismissed. So, I booked based on the pictures and the 20 reviews. This review is based on what I wish was highlighted about the property. The house is great. The location is not as great. It is on a busy thoroughfare, so there are lots of cars and noise at night and near a grill/bar and banquet hall that had parties each night which created more traffic. It is also near the main highway—which is convenient. The neighbor to the right has appliances on the porch and a grocery cart, plus other discarded items that are in view from the kitchen window, so when at the sink, you see the mess next door. There is a boarded-up house across the street, so when the front window shade is up, you see that house. Waco is being revitalized, and we all know that, so this isn't about that. I know the neighboring property's condition isn't this property's concern, but I would have liked more info in the listing and pictures, at least showing the street and fence line. Also, we never got to Baylor in less than 6 minutes, though the listing states 2 minutes, and that was via the highway; still not a lot, but I thought we would be closer to walk possibly. I should have asked.
