Great location and space has lot of character and charm. We were in town for Thanksgiving holiday and A&M vs. UT game 2025. The location was very close to campus and walkable to the game and tailgate prior.

Charming Victorian condo on the 2nd floor (stairs). Large spaces and king beds were the highlights. Located near campus. Communication with property management was timely and professional. Things to consider would be parking, as it is street parking.

Very pet friendly and a great place to stay! The property was clean, and the host was great. The only thing to keep in mind is that there’s only one parking pass included. If you have more than one vehicle, you’ll need to purchase an additional parking pass, so plan ahead. Overall, we had a great stay.

Liked: Location
We ranked this property a 3 for a number of reasons. 1) We felt that the property wasn't well represented in the pictures. It appeared to be a very clean, bright unit with nice furniture. It turned out the unit was dark and had furniture that had seen better days. The couch in the living room was old and covered with a sheet. 2) Although the unit was generally clean, all the windows were filthy. It seemed like they hadn't been cleaned in years.3) It was advertised that there is free parking, which is true. It mentioned that there were spaces in front of the unit. There was one space in front of the unit and we were only able to access it once. When we first arrived, we had to carry our baggage a block and a half. We also never knew where we would find a space when returning in the evening. We always did but sometimes we had to park several blocks from the unit.
