Wonderful place! Super clean, terrific decor, and fabulous mini kitchen station. Close to Baylor and Magnolia Market but feels tucked away. We stayed in the Windmill and loved the rooftop patio.

Great place to stay for a couple days

Having never stayed in a tiny home, was a little nervous after booking until we showed up. This place was fantastic. Super quiet getaway and more than enough room to spend the day in or just a place to stay after a day in Waco. Will totally book again if in the area.
