My friends and I had a great stay here! I see why some say it's a sketchier area- yet, the house itself and the one next door are definitely newer or renovated. The house also has plenty of locks, as well as a driveway to park around 4 cars enclosed by a fence, so my group didn't feel unsafe during out stay.
The location allows it to be a quick under 10min uber or drive to deep ellum, and the price is great! If you're looking for a spacious, affordable option, close to deep ellum- this is your pick! (perfect for us) If you want something a little more high class in a higher class part of town, this probably isn't your pick.
