She double booked
I can't tell you a thing about this property since the host double booked. She moved us to another location right next door. The host was helpful in answering questions about being relocated. I wish I could have seen pics of the place first bc I would have Said no thank you.

Worst experience I have had at a VRBO
Property is pet friendly but we would have had to carry our pups out of the parking area to avoid stickers in paws, Huge branch overhanging into space. No AC turned on in unit when we arrived on a 110 degree day. No fan provided to help circulate air from BR into rest - owner provided small one when asked but unit was still hot. We were not able to use the entire space comfortably. Fridge was dirty inside & out with lots of leftover stuff taking up all the shelf space and it seemed to be leaking but may have been because of the heat. Towel bar kept falling off wall..water pressure bad. Place just felt unkept. Booked at last minute because we have dogs that we ended up not bringing. Motel 6 would have been 100 times better and much cheaper!

Great place in Abilene
Came to Abilene to visit family and was seeking a pet friendly place to stay for a couple of days. This place was great. It was exactly as advertised. Perfect place for 1-2 people.

cute little place, close to everything you need
Entry to unit is in back through alley and I recognized unit from online picture. There was a motion light at bottom of stairs but no light on at top where you needed to see the keypad, would have been nice to have the light turned on. The stairs were many and steep, I would not recommend this place to older people. The unit itself was cute and cozy but the water pressure was awful and it was a little odd the only TV was in the bedroom. All-in-all, it was a good place (and value) to stay with our dogs, plenty of space for us . Location was good, close to everything and we felt safe taking dogs out at night.
