Dirty comforter
Comforter in left room had a big stain. Had to sleep in my clothes and cover with my jacket. I didn’t see it until we came back for the day and there was no contact information.

Great stay! Walking distance from Texas State University and the town square. Historical landmark..Cute place! Beautifully furnished and comfortable bedding. In a lively neighborhood, so expect some traffic noise. Overall great stay and plan to stay again in the spring.

Liked: Cleanliness
This was a super cute place however, it would have been nice to have coffee or some kind of lite breakfast. Also had a constant issue with someone parking in my assigned spot and i was forced to park and walk in the dark in unfamiliar area. Message sent to management went UNANSWERED. Not likely to return.

Adorable and Walkable
Such a cute little place. My little cousin and I both said we would live there ;) walkable to lots. Perfect for she and I to stay. She's 18 so she got the futon and I got the bed. Perfect space for us for the weekend!

We loved staying at the Downtown Abbey. The old wood floors and the historic architecture were beautiful. The price for what felt like a two-bedroom apartment was phenomenal! I would recommend a shower curtain kit around the gorgeous clawfoot tub. Showering is a bit cumbersome and it would preserve the gorgeous wood floors. We would stay again!

My stay was amazing! The hosts were very accommodating and helpful. I’ve actually stayed at this property before and it was great during that stay too. It’s close enough to the square to walk and it has a cute, historic look on the outside and inside. I would definitely recommend!
