Property was very clean, warm and welcoming. Beds were comfortable, and kitchen well stocked. Property manager was great at checking in, and readily available. The location can't be beat, with so many attractions and wonderful restaurants within walking distance.

Needs a few minor improvements

Overall the unit was as described with no surprises. Be prepared to climb two flights of outside stairs to get to the unit. Instructions for entry to unit are very detailed. Being a Saturday night stay we anticipated loud band noise from the downtown venues.There is a venue next door to this unit. The music ended at a reasonable time (11pm). Train noise from a nearby train track should be expected but ear plugs and white noise machines are provided. Our main complaint was continuous barking from other guests’ dogs. Our unit was a no pet unit. Other units are pet friendly. We have no problems with dogs but do have an issue with barking dogs. Beds were very comfortable. There are 2-3 nailheads in the wooden floor of the back bedroom that are sticking up. The clawfoot tub/shower was a little precarious for older persons. There was a step to get into the tub but maybe a handbar on the step would be helpful for safety. The shower head continuously dripped. Don’t let water from the shower accidentally run onto the floor because it will drain down to the ceiling of the restaurant below. There is a warning sign about this posted in the bathroom. There were plenty of towels etc. The kitchen supplies were adequate. More flatware would be nice. The microwave seemed a little worn but seemed to work ok. Close by available parking was very hard find on a Saturday night. On the plus side the location was great especially for easy walks to eating establishments. AC/hot water were great.

Cool loft downtown Bryan

This is the coolest property that I have stayed at. It’s on top of an old business in downtown Bryan with original shiplap walls, transom windows, industrial ducts, original hardwood floors, big tall windows, an added Kitchen that is well-placed & well-stocked, nice bathroom. The decor & art are also really cool. If you are sensitive to sound, this may not be the place for you. Downtown Bryan is a hip place with lots of bars & live music. It’s a fun place to be. Restaurants & clubs surround this loft. Only complaint is that it’s so hard to find parking. Otherwise I would tell you that you will love staying here.

Turn of the century urban modern

This property is cute and well designed for the space. Great use of the old and the new. Very comfortable and surprisingly spacious for the footage, but the renter should be aware that if they have limited mobility or balance or are super sensitive to sounds (such as trains) this may not be the property for them. In the bedrooms those sounds were minimal and the host has provided options to reduce sound. Great rent for the location and price.

Historic Gem

We visited to bring our son for a college tour at College Station. The location was perfect, great little downtown area with lots of restaurants and shops to visit, very walkable. The hours of some businesses were a little different than expected, but lots to see and do. The rental was very clean, and beautifully decorated. It is a very old building but so nicely updated with a lot of charm. We had a slight issue with the AC when we first arrived but, the communication was easy and very quickly handled. The beds were very comfortable and there were some fun games to play to pass time in the evenings. We didn't see anyone else in the building while there, and it was fairly quiet. There is a train that goes by but, it did not bother us, and the music from the near by venue was not too loud either and was done by a reasonable hour. Very easy to get to the campus. We had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend and hopefully get to stay here again.

Everything was great except it did get a little hot at night despite setting temperature lower. It was very hot outside and the suite has very high ceilings. Other than that, I highly recommend this property.

Graduation and Mother's Day Weekend Fun!

We came in town for my graduation. We are a family of 5 and The Starlet met our needs perfectly! The decore and layout were both lovely. The clawfoot tub tub is my favorite. There were games avaliable for the kids (and streaming). We highly recommend shopping and eating downtown and even had family join us after graduation. We would definitely stay here again!

The property is unique in that it is a 100 year old building. I loved the way this property was decorated. We had our 3 teenagers with us, we walked for pizza, farmers market, coffee and other fun shopping. This was a very enjoyable stay. The property owners are organized and good communicators.

Lofty Room

We really enjoyed our stay in downtown Bryan. The place is big, and the ceilings are some of the highest I’ve ever seen which makes it seem even bigger. It’s walking distance to several restaurants, cafes, stores, etc. All in all, a very nice place!

About the host

Hosted by Randal Lunsford

My wife and I both grew up in Bryan, Texas and both are graduates of Texas A&M, classes '89 & '90. After college, we married and I served in the Air Force while we raised our 5 children. Five years ago, we returned to our home town and started hosting guests in short term rentals. We have a heart for hospitality and would enjoy hosting you in this special property.

Why they chose this property

Downtown Bryan is a FUN place to stay while visiting Aggieland, with an abundance of restaurants, antique stores, and interesting things to do and see. It's also very convenient to everything in Bryan/College Station. This unit is a special place...right in the heart of downtown, just four doors down from the historic Queen Theater on Main Street. The historic structure contrasted with the modern decor create a cool vibe and the comfort of the king beds is top notch. The third bedroom is small...but a great place for kids or young adults to have their own space and make the unit suitable for up to 6 guests.
