It really was a great place in a great location. We really enjoyed the entire trip. It was clean and the bed was comfortable. We loved walking around Celina. The bikes were a great addition. We rode them all over the place. Just a really fun little trip.

The loft itself is really cute, very clean, and accommodating. Yes, it is on the second floor, but the steps are extremely steep. Lugging a large suitcase up and down them was a little scary. The loft has a partial view of the lake. The windows were great for watching a storm come through! I did get a little worried for a minute. I did not need to use the kitchen, but everything seemed to be in working order. Initially, the bathroom faintly smelled like cigarettes. That was nothing compared to the marijuana air freshener that lurked in the entryway. I didn't inhale! The bed was comfy enough. Monday morning's slumber was cut a little short; music was coming through the floorboards. Health-conscious people working out to good music. Maybe that is my wake-up call, literally. I do need to exercise more.Oh, I really liked having a washer and dryer to use. Where to hang my clothes, though? A definite plus is the coffee shop across the street. A good cup of joe and chocolate!Thanks for allowing me to use the flat. I am glad I stayed there and not at another hotel!

Honestly the loft itself was lovely. However there was no mention in the description that it was either above or right next to some type of bar or club. There was obnoxiously loud music and a DJ until after 1am. I was very unhappy.

Great getaway!

We stayed for a long weekend. Less than 10 minutes walk to the lake, so much to do around the neighborhood, right across from a coffee shop. The apartment was clean, beautiful, has a small balcony, and all the cooking essentials in the kitchen if you want to cook. I’d stay here again!

Uptown in C-Town

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here in early May. It's a clean and quiet location with a spacious living room. Cool to stay in downtown Celina, a place I have visited numerous times because of family ties in the area. Easy walk to the lake and to a couple of our favorite places- Brew Nation and the 202 Tavern. We would definitely stay here again.

We loved the Loft

The Loft is centrally located to everything in Celina, and we were able to walk everywhere. The Loft had everything we needed for a quick trip into the area to attend a family wedding. When we visit family in the future or do a return trip for a vacation we will definitely be staying at the Loft.

Mother/daughters trip

This was the perfect location! The Taste of Celina was the night we stayed so it was right there on the main road where all the action was. This was a trip my sister and I planned for our mom’s birthday and we had a great time!

We enjoyed our stay it was a nice relaxing weekend little noisy though didn’t realize it was a bar below us but that’s OK. We just used our headphones at night. It is what it is. There was a strong marijuana over in the hallway. We are not smokers so we noticed it right away But the place was lovely. We had a great time and we will visit again.

The apartment was in great condition. We didn't utilize the kitchen. The water in the shower was hot and the a/c cold. The stairs are a bit steep but totally doable. We would stay at the Loft again. Thank you.

Great Place

We loved our visit here. The apartment does look as good in person as the pictures. I was very pleased with the high quality of the furnishing and supplied linens. The owners added many nice touches and all the information you could need was right at hand. Extremely comfortable bed and sofa. If we come back to Celina we would definitely want to stay here again.

There are 2 sets of stairs ( 24 steps ) that go to the loft. However, they are steep if you are an old lady with a suitcases difficult to manage.They are dirty and the hall smells of marijuana. I understand that is a legal drug here. The loft was as described otherwise. It was a little confusing because I was sent a password for the Wi-Fi and yet when I got here, there is another Wi-Fi on the wall that is different from the one that I was sent on my instructions for entrance. I had a problem with the TV. The host was very nice to send me detailed directions that required this old lady to stand up in a chair to reach the plug. I will say, I did get a call that they would come and work on something if those detailed instructions did not work. The loft was advertised as a shower/bathtub but there was no bathtub there. It’s a very small shower and if you’re not 5 foot six the shower is going fall on your head every time and you really need a shower. A shower cap would have been nice. The dryer did not work. I did call the host who informed me that the last time the housekeeping was there that it had worked. They did thank me for letting them know that it was not working. I guess it was just good information for them to have! They made no offer to send anyone to fix the dryer. My friend and I have been traveling for several days and one of the reasons we were staying at the loft was because of the washer and dryer. So we were unable to wash and dry our clothes.
