Classic home with modern remodel

This property was central to everything our weekend entailed. We would highly recommend to friends traveling together or with our family. There are 3 bedrooms, 2 of which have attached bathrooms. Be advised that one shower does not have a traditional door so sharing the space while someone is in the shower may not be practical. The checkin/checkout process was seamless.Host permitted us to check in early. The driveway has sufficient room for up to 3-vehicles in a stacked orientation We will be returning with our family as soon as we can.

Disappointing Stay - Needs Attention to Cleanliness

Our recent stay at this property was, unfortunately, not what we had hoped. While the listing appeared promising, there were a number of issues that impacted our comfort and experience. The floors in the property creak extremely loudly. The host provided earplugs and sound machines in the bedrooms, which helped, but it’s disappointing to have to rely on these just to get a decent night’s sleep. The bathrooms were also an issue. The toilet seats were visibly stained and in need of replacement, which gave an unpleasant impression right from the start. In addition, I was quite surprised to find dead bugs in the window sills, left by the cleaning service. This oversight, along with cockroaches spotted in the laundry room, raises concerns about the property's cleanliness standards. Overall, while the location has potential, the issues with cleanliness and maintenance need to be addressed to make this property a more comfortable and enjoyable place to stay. I hope the host considers these improvements for future guests.

Bright, Cheery, Updated Home

I stayed here when I made a surprise visit to my two daughters at Tech. The house was updated, tastefully decorated and had such a nice and bright feel throughout. The beds were very comfortable and the home was stocked with everything needed for a comfortable, pleasant stay. I definitely hope to stay here again.

Cute Sweet House

My husband and I came to Lubbock to visit family for the weekend, and greatly enjoyed our stay here. The house is super cute and well located. The only issue we had was lack of basic supplies like toilet paper, paper towels, and ice. But a quick trip to the store solved that! It was a lovely stay and we’d certainly recommend it!

Quiet Neighborhood

Stayed for a long weekend. Check in was easy. This is an older home that has been nicely renovated but the floors creak when walking on them. The bed was comfortable and shower was good. The only thing that would improve this older home would be more power outlets. My husband has a CPAP machine and also charges his phone. That takes up all the outlets close to the bed. I just charged my phone after getting up in the morning so I could have my phone close at night. We prefer local news and with the Roku we couldn’t find any local stations but we’re not used to Roku so it might have just been operator error. Overall a good place to stay.

Perfect Stay for Work and Relaxation!

I had an excellent stay at this charming house in Lubbock. Located in a great neighborhood close to Tech campus, it was also conveniently within walking distance of a great local coffee shop. There were plenty of dining and coffee options within a 5-minute drive as well. The house itself was adorable and clean. It provided a peaceful and relaxing environment, which was just what I needed for my work trip. The setup was perfect for working from home, and I was able to get a lot done during my stay. Additionally, the host's communication was outstanding—they went above and beyond to ensure my trip was smooth and enjoyable. I highly recommend this place for both work and leisure!

Perfect location for Tech camp

We were in town for the weekend to attend a Tech camp. It was perfect for what we needed. The location was great and it was very quiet there unlike what you find in the busy hotel in the summer. The space was clean and had everything we needed. Too bad we didn’t use the big backyard for anything since it was such a quick trip. We will be back!

Tech Terrace Gem

The property has been redone very well and was very clean. The back yard provided plenty of space to hang out and the neighborhood has always been one of my favorite parts about Lubbock. It is super close to some amazing places to eat and makes it easy to get to destinations all over town.

Nice property/great location

The Hidden Gem was perfect for our weekend in Lubbock. We came to celebrate our daughter’s birthday and give her a break from dorm life. The house is cute and updated, has comfortable beds and clean bathrooms. We didn’t cook anything, but the kitchen appeared to be well appointed. The Tech campus is in walking distance and the short walk to J&B Coffee was a bonus. The street was quiet at night and the neighbors were friendly.
