Great Room! Great Location!

The room was very comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay in Marfa. The owner was onsite and extremely helpful. The location was perfect. We walked everywhere. Quiet, clean, comfortable and convenient. What more could you ask for?

Perfect stay

The location of this place is truly perfect. Walking distance to most things in Marfa. The place is spacious and comfortable. The full kitchen is a nice option because restaurants in Marfa can sometimes be challenging (closed or busy). Parking was easy even with a large SUV. Nothing I didn’t like about staying here.

Weekend at Marfa House—Pinto Canyon

We were there for a wedding & this location was walking distance to every activity (2 parties, 2 hotels), as well as shops, galleries & restaurants. The apartment was roomy & comfortable. We love having a kitchen for small bites, breakfast and morning coffee & the kitchen in Pinto Canyon had all we needed plus a nice kitchen table. Coffee and breakfast on the porch was lovely. Although we didn’t have any leisure time for the common room, it was light and welcoming. Management was very responsive in fixing a wonky security light (not a “security” issue for us—town seems very safe—but for the light needed to input door code) We would definitely stay here again!

nice room

My wife and i are older {75 years old. Married 54 years}. We just wanted to ger out of the house and see some of the state while we still could. We were in the Big Bend area for a week. we stayed at three different accommodations. Yours was by far the best rooms we stayed in. We had requested a downstairs room but were told none were available. In the two days we were there, we hardly saw another person.When we arrived, we had to drag all our luggage around the back of the building, go through two locked doors. find a staircase and carry our luggage up, one step at a time. This procedure was extremely difficult for us and unnecessary, especially when you have a perfectly good front door, right on the sidewalk. You have a perfectly good front door. you need to find a way to make it serviceable.

Better Than the Pictures

Marfa House was a top notch place to stay . The property was lovely and could not have been more comfortable . All of the furnishings were high end and the decor was done very artistically. We enjoyed relaxing outdoors on the porch as well as being inside. When booking a place to stay ,the hope is that it will be as nice in reality as it is the the advertising photos. Well, Marfa House is even better than the photos!

Great Place

The place was great. Prefect for two couples who are willing to share. The train is the only less than ideal aspect of the property But honestly, it is not that bad. I would stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Christa M.

Host profile image
Marfa House was an historic, but derelict, adobe structure when the owner purchased it in 2005. After a 14-year renovation project, it was opened in Spring, 2019 to offer guests accommodations in a building with historic character and comfortable modern amenities steps from the center of Marfa. Our manager, Sonya, is available to assist guests with their needs and answer any questions about their rental.

Why they chose this property

Marfa offers many lodgings for travelers, but few that have links to Marfa's 19th century old-West roots and a location literally steps from the galleries, bars, and restaurants of the town's heart. Nearly every room at Marfa House features original art that echoes a blend of Marfa's historic character and its contemporary vibe. Why not stay at a lodging that will provide you with magic memories of your West Texas visit, as well as comfort and convenience?

A WORD ABOUT OUR CLEANING PRACTICES IN THE WAKE OF THE PANDEMIC:
Marfa House wants our guests to be safe during their visits. In response to the Covid-19 Pandemic, we have committed to the following practices:
--The Marfa House apartments will be left vacant a minimum of 24 hours between guest residencies.
--The host will socially distance and wear a mask during direct interactions with guests. Guests will, of course, have all-hours access to the Marfa House entry and their booked unit via keypad entrance access, including for check-in.
--An antiseptic solution will be used to clean all contact surfaces in each unit before guests check in--including door knobs, appliances, counters, and mini split AC/heating and ceiling fan remotes, as well as multiple daily wipe-downs of other high-traffic surfaces such as entry door knobs, light switches, stair railings, and the television remote in the Atrium.
----The space is heated and cooled with an individual mini split HVAC units which utilize fresh air from outside, so there is no recirculated air which could result in health concerns.

What makes this property unique

Marfa House gives you immediate proximity to all the popular venues of the central historic district. In addition to its comfortable private rooms--most with full kitchen/dining rooms and comfortable living rooms, it provides comfortable common areas: Our second floor balcony, our two-story screened atrium, and our "common living room" gallery allow you to meet other guests if you wish, or merely relax and enjoy your leisure time. Marfa House features free WiFi throughout the hotel. Each apartment includes a binder of information about your lodging and maps and descriptions of local destinations and restaurants.
