We enjoyed a cozy stay at this beautiful guest house. The check-in process was very convenient and it was the perfect overnight stay on our long road trip. The shower is a tall-person's dream and my 6'4 husband and I both really enjoyed it! The bedding was very comfortable as well and the coffee was delicious.
This had everything I needed for a great weekend visiting my son. The bed and pillows were comfy, and there was some extra coffee to get me through. Hosts were responsive and helpful.
Went to see my girlfriend and this house was perfect for us to spend some time together. Property was very nice and very clean. The area was close to whatever one may need. Hosts were responsive though I didn’t need to bother them on this trip. All in all an outstanding experience and I would stay there again any time
This cute tiny home was exactly as it was described. It was perfect for my husband and I. We stayed 3 nights and loved the close proximity to campus, but far enough to be peaceful at night. It had everything we needed. The hosts were communicative, but we didn't need anything, all the furnishings were at our finger tips.
This was a quiet, restful place to stay for 2 days. The bed was oh so comfortable and I loved the parking and sitting area in the back right next to the tiny house. There is a full size refrigerator/freezer and stove if you want to cook which was perfect for my needs.
They neighborhood was not my favorite. I did love the alley access, however it needs to be cleaned up a bit! Overall, I absolutely loved this place and will use them again while visiting my daughter at Texas Tech. The travel time to the university is perfect!
Everything was fine. Great location to campus etc. Bath tub is very slick when standing in it to shower. Could easily slip if not really careful. Driveway was very muddy due to recent rains. Gravel topping would solve that issue. But, all in all a nice place to stay.
Small, but very recently fixed up. Very nice little place, and the shower was especially nice with its tile work. Missing a microwave, which would have been nice.
We went to Lubbock to see our daughters new place and spend time with her for Father's Day. She has been in Lubbock for 2 years now and is a graduate from Texas Tech with her bachelor degree. She was moving from an apartment into a house 2 blocks away from this little place. I thought this was handy and cut down on a lot of driving. It was adorable.
I love the whole VRBO process, and Christian is know for his easy and clean rentals. Smooth here as always. This is my second stay in this property, and I'll likely be back again!
This little efficiency is a great place to rest on a fun weekend trip. Bed is comfy and there is a nice size closet for bags. Owners are great and very communicative.

About the host
Hosted by Christian Palacios
Just a guy and his wife working full time in real estate. We buy and sell houses, have multiple Short Term Rentals, and we flip/renovate houses. I also like fast things, Teslas, motorcycles, skiing, and I hope to skydive one day.
Why they chose this property
The Tiny Modern Magnolia Retreat is centrally located in The Heart of Lubbock neighborhood. As it's minutes away from TTU, the majority of the houses in the area consist of renters and TTU students. It's one of the oldest and original neighborhoods to be established here in Lubbock. Needless to say, you'll find some properties that have been or are currently being updated/flipped which is exciting and neat to watch unfold. You're sure to appreciate our own recently remodeled space which was personally designed with your comfort in mind!
What makes this property unique
It’s an unbeatable, short 3-minute drive to the Texas Tech and Lubbock High, restaurants, boutiques & Lubbock nightlife. Plus, only a few minutes drive to UMC, the Depot District, downtown, & 13 minutes from the airport. Free street parking on premise directly in front of the main house. There's also a small parking area in the back next to the guest house which may be accessed through the back ally. Please note that the ally & parking area are dirt, not paved. When rain is present, it will be muddy. We do not generally recommend parking in the back, but please do whichever is most convenient for you.
