This was the perfect size and location for our stay. Close to Baylor and downtown Waco. The home had plenty of space and ensuite bathrooms. The kitchen was large enough to cook several meals there. We were very happy with this location. Gated parking in the back is also a plus.

Great spot

The neighborhood is mixed commercial/multi family and small homes that appear to be rentals and single family homes- we felt safe and walked to get dinner but heads up if you are a nervous nelly. Great location in terms of ease to get anywhere. The house is well equipped and described accurately. We had a great stay!
