Very comfortable and convenient

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Binky’s Nest is as described cozy, walkable and vintage. The location is what makes this place so great. Everything is within walking distance. A great morning coffee at Kaffee Haus is steps away. It is definitely a no frills experience but it’s comfortable and clean!

We enjoyed our stay. Clean and very close to downtown. Our only wish was for a closet to hang things. There were 2 over door hangers, but we brought some things for a nice dinner out.

Good fit for our needs. Comfortable stay.

We were working an event in Luckenbach, so time to cook, so no need for a kitchen. There were 3 of us. Old lady me got the room with the double bed. Younger guys were perfect in the twin bed room. Convenient location.

The accommodation is very quirky and old fashioned which we found quaint. However it is very noisy for sleeping with lots of road noise. There is no kitchen facilities, crockery or utensils.

Not really clean

This is not the kind of review that we usually get. It is very embarrassing and we will make sure it doesn't happen again. My only excuse is that it was the busiest Spring Break we have ever had and we were all exhausted by the end of the week. The two rooms in the Nest are one of our best rentals with lots of room and a great location one block from Main Street and very clean.

Eclipse stay

In need of an uplift but otherwise a reliable and quiet stay in an excellent location walkable to everything. Not an accessible unit for anyone with mobility challenges. We'd recommend the owner improve the front gate, fix the broken guardrail pickets on the stairs that offer a fall hazard, fix the door threshold with loose nails (our kids found them), and fix or throw away the broken bench at the top of the stairs.

Really nice unit for girl's weekend. Loved how close it was to Main Street. On the down side- there was bad smell the entire time, which really smelled like "weed". It never dissipated and hit us in the face every time we were out and came back in. Also- there was no thermostat that we could find to control the heat. It was very uncomfortable our last night there. We roasted! Overall, we liked the unit very much and would stay again.
