Check in was a breeze and Nora responded to all of our questions/concerns as they arose. By random chance, the A/C stopped working during the stay (we were there the full month of June) and she had someone onsite to repair it the same day. Thank you for the long term rental, Nora! ##### Marianne S. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Gabriel P. Oct 14, 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 10-6 to 10-13 stay Pros -The location was fine, it's near the airport -4 rooms with large beds and Tvs in every room. - The front has enough room for 2 trucks -Nice common area to chill Cons: -the place could have been a bit cleaner, there were some dead bugs by the entrance - the fridge had something in the freeze that looks like it's been there for months. -The place doesn't come with amenities that other places usually have like a dishwasher, laundry detergent, and soap/shampoo dispensers -the neighborhood dogs stay outside at all points of the day (I know the owner can't control that) so prepare for that All in all the place wasn't bad for the price. ##### Gabriel P. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Clint M., Texas Dec 13, 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication Disliked: Cleanliness, location #### Choose wisely Had to chusel burnt coffee out of coffee pot to use it. Hot water heater turned down, so you must mess with water heater or take cool showers. Scavenger hunt to locate bed spreads. Far from the best neighborhood in McAllen. Pics in listing are much more flattering than reality. Upside, gas station and airport are directly across the street. ##### Clint M. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### michelle z.
