ACU Graduation

Upon arrival, we were greeted with breakfast items, Christmas napkins, coffee and so many extras. The communication was excellent, along with the entire stay from the hospitality to the charming home. Our family stayed in the home for a college graduation and celebrated after in their beautiful backyard. Thank you for going above and beyond!

Perfect in Every Way!

We so enjoyed our stay at Eleven09! The house is perfect in every way. We stayed during the awful 105+ Texas heat and the house stayed cool and comfortable. The house was extremely cozy and had every amenity you could think of. Beds were super comfortable and we felt right at home the entire time. Melissa, the property manager was great and made certain we were well taken care of... not to mention her excellent communication through the entire process! We will definitely be staying at Eleven09 again, can't recommend it enough!

Relaxing and enjoyable

We had a great time and loved the accommodations. The proprietors were very responsive. Suggestions: Working blender (the one there did no work), the fan remote in the room with twin beds did not work (you could not turn the light off without turning the fan as well), there was no Kleenex in the whole house.
