You truly could not find a stay in a better location in town. The State and Thomas neighborhood was quiet while still being right near anything you could need in downtown Dallas. Parking was a breeze with a driveway spot and street passes. Our dog didn't quite enjoy the backyard as much as we hoped, most likely due to it being mostly dirt, but it was nice to have especially downtown.
The host was responsive via text. We had some issues with the freezer/ice machine not working properly that needed to be fixed urgently and they sent a repair man the next day (on Christmas Eve). We appreciated the quick help!
Some set backs to our stay: We felt that the unit was unequipped for the week long stay that we had. Ideally there would have been more pantry staples to make our stay easier such as salt and pepper or cooking oil. There were 3 different ways to make coffee, but no coffee filters. The little things like that add up and would have made the stay feel like home. There was an option during our extended stay to pay $100 for additional cleaning while there, but in reality all we needed was a Swiffer for the floors and we could have taken care of it ourselves. Additionally during our checkout the cleaning staff arrived 45 minutes before checkout time. Piling their cleaning supplies on the front porch as we tried to load up the car and get out. That's certainly one way to get us to leave faster.
Overall a good stay. You truly cannot beat the location and with some changes we would stay again.
