The hot tub is in it's own fenced in area and is shared among the other units, which was not clear to me. The room/unit was cute and clean and the yard was perfect for us and our little pups. The location appears to be in an older and a little rougher part of a neighborhood, but we had no problems. The host was very communicative at first, but after the booking was over when I reached out to let her know about there being no coffee, sugar etc, there was no communication or response. However, the host gave the overall impression that she cared very much about her property and seems to take care of it.

Little house was extremely clean had everything in it that we needed. The yard was fenced so my little dog couldn’t get out. We didn’t get a chance to use the hot tub overall I would definitely stay there again. It’s very nice. The host very nice. Very helpful.

Pros: This place has a lot of character. It’s really cute. The bed was likely the most comfortable bed I’ve slept in at a VRBO. The hot tub is a lovely touch. Beautiful bay window with lots of natural light. A fenced in back yard with patio furniture. Cons: When I arrived, I was surprised to see that it was not a single family home. It’s a triplex and unfortunately the neighbors next door are up late and loud. There was a strange rhythmic banging sound that would randomly happen throughout the night(sounded like shoes in a dryer). I looked at the clock once to note the time and it was almost 2am. Needless to say, we didn’t sleep well bc of this. It doesn’t say anything on the listing about the hot tub being a shared amenity but that appears to be the case as you have to go through another gate to get to the hot tub and the gate has a lock on the outside. Thankfully since it was winter, we didn’t run into any other folks using the hot tub. The property had litter everywhere outside in the bushes. It’s the first thing we saw when we arrived. The area around the hot tub was littered with trash and random items. There was dog & cat doo in the backyard. Not the best neighborhood either. Witnessed a stray pitbull roaming the streets making it unsafe to walk. One thing the owner could do to really elevate the space would be to replace that sad couch in the living room. It was so uncomfortable, small and had given up. A TV in the bedroom would make things even better.

The unit was very clean and well stocked. Our host went over and above to accommodate our needs. We didn’t get to use the hot tub due to our schedule, but it seemed great. So nice to have pet friendly places available when you travel. We would definitely book again if we head back out to the 806! Thanks

Great little place for a couple to have a getaway! Wish we could have used the hot tub but the hours we were home were not conducive to use it - but it is a great setup! If we ever travel to Lubbock again - we hope this place is available - we would 1000% come back!Thank you!

The rooms were very clean and had all necessary supplies appliances and utensils were provided. Some infrequent street noise and limited parking were the only drawbacks. Otherwise it’s a small quiet place to stay for a couple.
