Colorful Relaxation Modern Family Friendly-3 days

Summary:
Relax with the whole family at this classy, stylish, peaceful place to stay.

Newly renovated 2bed/1bath duplex home, located in a safe & friendly centrally located community. The entire place is the definition of modern with stylish accents and luxury furnishings. It features considerate pops of color and gold accents throughout the home. Colors are picked for relaxation and happy moods.

This fully equipped home offers high speed Wi-Fi, tamper-resistant outlets, Smart TVs, cookware + food.

The Space:
Enjoy our distant version of 'continental breakfast' with a selection of oatmeal, cream of wheat, and grits packets (add water, etc and heat in microwave), and eggs. Pair it with your fav cup of tea or coffee from the single serve, easy-to-use k-cups coffee maker. (For tea, I run it empty first, then just clear water, without the k-cup inserted.)

Sleep gracefully on the Serta pillow-top mattresses and choose between two cooling pillows and two memory foam pillows to rest your head and body while you sleep, slumber, relax, etc. Each bedroom has the same set up for bed & pillows.

Although I love when families spend time together in the living room, each bedroom has its own 32 in smart TV installed. Each mounted TV has ability to be moved slightly to a comfortable position for your viewing pleasure.

All rooms feature dimmable lighting except the bathroom. However, the bathroom does have an anti-fog mirror. Be sure to tap that feature before you shower! Oh- and the toilet seat is glow-in-the-dark, just in case it's late when you have to ... and the lights hurt your eyes too much ;)

The recessed lighting has two modes: Regular, dimmable lighting; and a rim-lit mode. To access the rim-lit mode, turn off the lights and then a few seconds later, turn on the lights.

The kitchen is equipped with essential items for preparing meals. Anything preferential can be purchased at the nearby grocery store. (Food King is closet, Walmart grocery and Walmart Super center are nearby).

Extra towels are located in the hall closet, along with broom, Swiffer sweeper, and baby items (pack-n-play all-in-one w bassinet, changing table, foldable highchair, baby tub). Extra linen is also in the hall closet (just in case, and/or for the couch bed).

Guest Access:
A code will be sent to you just before check-in. This code will last the entirety of your stay and will expire a few hours after checkout.

The Neighborhood:
Family friendly and Quiet neighborhood with schools nearby. The neighborhood pool is a few steps to the left (facing property) and a nice-sized park in walking distance, about 1/2 a block to the rear (Sunrise Park).

Sunrise Park is large, with tennis courts, basketball courts, playground, lots of grass, trees & outdoor seating areas.

Nearby grocery and food options are superfluous.

Getting Around:
You may walk to several places, for example, lots of eating options on Dyer St, Hondo Pass Dr and Hercules Ave. There is a Dollar General and a gas station close by, also in walking distance. However, it's a city that is spread out, not up; so I recommend a car, bike or skate board in general for getting around.

You won't have to worry about paying for parking unless you attend an event and need to park in a garage downtown. Other than that, it's a polite city where parking is mostly free!

The bus stations are close too.

Other Things to Note:
Tell Alexa to turn your lights off - or dim them to 30%. Play music, etc. Be sure to play with the Alexa around the home.

There is also an Echo Show in case you want to use it to watch videos, check-in with family/friends via video chat, etc. Have fun with it, but also be gentle with the items.

The "gaming system" is a retro games console that mimics Nintendo of the 80s. It is not an actual modern Nintendo. It features several games from the 90s and operates similar to the experience back then! I sat and got distracted for hours playing 8-bit Contra lol! To pick a new game, you have to push the RESET button and go back through the list. It's something to play with - enjoy it while you can!



_____ Place gets cleaned thoroughly between visits, including light switches, doorknobs, and common use items.
