About this property

The Ellis 2

Welcome to the Wesley by Jack. Located in Downtown Waco Tx. Our lofts are approx. 1,000 sqft and designed to accommodate guests who are looking for a quick getaway to Waco. Our open loft design makes this space feel clean and open. When we say close, we mean close. Magnolia Silo and Magnolia Press are only 2 blocks away which is easy walking distance and no hassle finding parking downtown. You'll be blocks away from all the great excitement Waco has to offer like shops, restaurants and much more

Mom / Daughter Trip!

Perfect little spot near all the fun shops, eateries, and the backyard. The backyard grill has outdoor concerts so you have to be okay with that, which we are! And if you are going to a show there, even better!

Cute and comfortable

The Ellis is so cute and comfortable. It was perfect for our party of 3. Great location, easily walkable to The Silos. Area felt safe. Host was easy to reach, the only issue we had was unlocking the property which was quickly addressed. Overall, highly recommend this property.

Waco weekend

Great place. Great location - a couple of blocks down from the Silos. A little noisy - train, dog barking throughout the night next door, and someone working one their car at 2:30am (revving the engine like a maniac). Could have been a little cleaner - hair in the shower drain.
