Darrick was a wonderful host! He was very accommodating when the original rental we booked was not ready upon arrival, and made the process quick to get into a new unit so we did not have to wait. Check-in process was very easy. The actual unit could use some work- it was clean overall, but there was a noticeable trash smell and as a whole it was somewhat dingy. The furniture could use some updating; a lot of it was stained and/or noticeably worn. Being within walking distance of Deep Ellum was exactly what we wanted, but be prepared for a noisy stay since you are so close to everything.
