Really cute, well thought out house! Plenty of room. The beds were very comfortable and the bedding was really nice. We appreciated the fans in every room and the easy check out process.
House was great. All the amenities as listed. The train along the back gate was noisy but livable. We were aware of it and only there really to sleep so no complaints.
We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The house was very clean and we loved all the details left by the owner. Well stocked kitchen and quiet neighborhood. Overall a great stay.

We have a great cleaning team that takes pride in doing a thorough job. Very glad the stay was enjoyed. Thank you!
This was a great little house to stay in for out of town work. The train is close but not horrible.
The beds were very comfortable and place was clean.

Disliked: Location
I took pictures that depict the house more accurately. The outside is not being kept up. Fence was being held up by straps connected to the back patio, kitchen floor peeling and uneven, bath towels had holes, stain on master bed comforter and clear packing tape covering holes in flooring. The neighborhood was less than desirable. Not the standards we expect from VRBO rental.

Thank you for your feedback. We always take guest concerns seriously and want to provide clarity for future travelers.
The fence is fully intact and secure; there is a single support strap that was added as a preventative reinforcement, not due to structural damage. Regarding the exterior landscaping, this visit occurred during a seasonal period when some plants naturally go dormant or decline, but routine maintenance is ongoing.
Our home is located in an established, older neighborhood, which many of our guests appreciate for its convenient location. Neighborhood preference can be subjective.
We maintain a fully stocked linen closet with extra towels and bedding, and our home is professionally cleaned between every stay. If any towel or bedding item showed wear or a missed stain, we would have been happy to replace it immediately had it been brought to our attention during the stay. No issues were communicated to us at the time. This sheet in the photo has been replaced, I have also worked with my cleaner to make sure we don’t do this again and I admit it was mistake putting that sheet on.
We appreciate the opportunity to improve and remain committed to maintaining high standards for our guests.
The kitchen was well appointed and the house was better than advertised

Thank you so much for the stay Edward, very happy you enjoyed the kitchen. We try our best to keep it fully stocked and add anything that might be missing.
We really enjoyed this house and the location. The house is full of conveniences (coffee, snacks, toiletries, etc) and a very well stocked kitchen. Lots of room. An excellent host who communicates well and cares about the customer experience.
Came in town for a wedding but the little time I spent in the house was very cozy, relaxed, and comfortable. Neat little downtown area right around the corner too
This was one of the most well appointed properties I have rented. The property owner was super communicative and everything was exactly as it was described in the listing.
Booked for 6 people, and there was plenty of leftover space for everyone. The house was even better than the listing described. Nothing negative to say, will book again for next San Marcos trip.
