Comfortable and easy to get to location

The property is cutely updated with a big back yard and quiet neighborhood. The fold out is a full sofa fold out (not just futon) and reports from the teen sleeping there was that it was quite comfortable. Will definitely consider staying again if we head back to this part of Waco.

This home was a home away from home.

We really enjoyed this cozy home. Looks newly remodeled and was clean and staged perfectly. It was conveniently located to many eateries and the school we were playing at. The host, Michelle was very accommodating when we had to extend our stay. I highly recommend if ever in Waco it’s a must you stay there!

Great stay at Sadie's 5 Star Retreat

We were in Waco for our 40th high school reunion. Sadie's Retreat fit the bill perfectly for the 4 of us. Furnishings were nice and the home was updated. Really enjoyed the selection of coffees and breakfast bars. Highly recommend for a stay in Waco. Thanks for sharing your home with us.

Overall it was fine

I would have given 4 stars except the beds were awful, it felt like you were falling in a black hole. Also the neighborhood seemed a bit sketchy, I did not feel comfortable coming back at night alone. But it was clean and well equipped.

easy and comfortable

The house is comfortable and nicely remodeled;, conveniently located to the places we went, especially the Delaney which is less than 2 miles. Blackout curtains in the master make it easy to sleep in, bed in master could stand a replacement, has a bit of a hole but the second bed was firm, baths clean and bright. Kitchen has everything for cooking and eating. Great little house in an older well maintained neighborhood.

Just for sleeping

Overall the place was fine, we didn’t spend much time other than sleeping. The outside needs some Love with the lawn unkept and the backyard not able to be enjoyed. Inside could have been a little cleaner. Finger prints on doors and bathroom cabinets. Yet it did its job by offering a comfy place to retreat after our busy afternoons.

Great home, not a great neighborhood.

This is a really cute well-renovated property. It looks like something that The Gaines would have renovated for Fixer Upper. Very nice bathrooms, great bed linens, very clean and updated appliances. They provide toilet paper, bath soap, keurig coffee, etc. Unfortunately it is not in a nice neighborhood. We didn't feel unsafe, but the home next door, for example, is in complete disrepair- very junky. And there was a very unpleasant odor in the home. Not sure if it was just some really strong cleaning product or a mildew/ mold issue, but it was very offensive. It's also farther from Baylor and Magnolia Market than we normally like to stay, but that made it more affordable which was a plus.

New Bed Needed

The property is located in a lower middle-class neighborhood with lots of rentals. Not terrible area but need to be vigilant. It is basically in a suburb of Waco 12 minutes or so from Silos & Baylor University. The house was pretty clean but needed a deep clean of corners, ceilings, baseboards, vents etc. The kitchen was equipped nicely, and the laundry facilities were great. The BIG issue were the beds they were broken down and were like sleeping in a hammock. As a result, my husband's back went out and the put a damper on the trip. A little TLC with new beds & deep clean and the place would be definitely a potential return for us to visit our Baylor Bear.

Great stay

Had a great stay, just as described in the listing. My one complaint was that the neighbors parked in the driveway so we had to park on the street. That did not take away from our experience with the listing though.
