Perfect for us!

We had a great time visiting Waco. The house was very comfortable and clean and the host communicated all of our needs. It was a short drive to Baylor University. We would absolutely stay here again!

Probably because of the misleading title on VRBO, I expected to see a touch of Gaines' magic. Sorry, only the big house was redone years ago. It is now, from the outside, in need of painting and maintenance. But back to the garage apt. Our welcome was tempered by the difficulty of squeezing past parked cars on the gravel driveway in order to reach our entrance door. The driveway has such an angled access from 20th St. we were afraid of scraping the underside of our car. We ended up parking in front of a neighbor's house. The garage apt. is very small. A downstairs kitchen is fully equipped but narrow, with stool seating for 3 at a hightop. A steep stairway has a handrail on the lower section and a wobbly railing above, leading up to a common area (w/the unit's only tv), a bathroom, and two bedrooms. The beds are comfortable but very tall, and the smaller bedroom has scarcely enough room to maneuver between the bed and the wall. The location, not too far from downtown, is fine. The street is a little sketchy in parts, but the block we were in felt safe and quiet. Upon leaving, be aware that you are expected to: 1) carry all trash outside, separating recyclables; 2) strip the linens off the beds; 3) begin laundry of towels in an unlit garage annex where detergent is not readily apparent; 4) tidy the kitchen/bathroom/closets so you are not charged an additional fee for owner-determined incidentals like stolen hangers. Next time? A hotel.

About the host

Hosted by Charmaine Hooper

I really enjoy fixing up and bringing properties back from the brink as I had done with this property. It had taken some time to do so but it was all very much worth the time and energy.

Why they chose this property

This property was about to be demolished by the city so it would have been a shame to have seen that happen. I felt it was my duty to get ahold of this property and begin the process of restoring it.

What makes this property unique

This guest house is perfect for smaller groups and is available for one night stays or longer stays. Please contact the owner about the possibility of extended stays at a reduced rate.
