The house itself is wonderful for hosting a large family. The place was exactly like the pictures, extremely clean! Great amenities. My entire family enjoyed themselves and definitely used the kitchen/living room area. We went for a football game and not for nightlife or sightseeing so the home served its purpose. We were able to pick up food from a BB-Q spot that was open super late (literally blocks away which is listed as a go to place in Dallas) and we loved it!!!
