Everything was fine except the A/C in the bedroom was very loud and never went off. It would have been better for our very small dogs if the yard had been mowed and it was pet secure, we couldn't let them outside, but apart from those things it was good. Thanks

Nice comfortable home to enjoy on a cold weekend. The kitchen had what we needed to stay in and cook chili. Coffee was available so we did not need to rush to the store to get some on a very cold morning.

Excellent location
Enjoyed our stay. This VRBO was conveniently located just blocks away from the Texas Tech campus, & numerous eating establishments. This made things much more simpler as we were in town to help move our son into his College apartment. The house was extremely roomy and comfortable, with great air conditioning. I would definitely stay here again in the future.

Very dirty and not well maintained
My family and I were excited for our one night stay in Lubbock while on our way to NM but were so truly disappointed that we almost left a few hours after we checked in. The house was truly filthy. There were stains all over the carpet, there was dried food on dishes as well as surfaces in the kitchen including the sponge and dish towels. Then came the backyard. I was looking forward to having a yard for our dog to run in after driving all day but it was so terrible I kept her on a leash and ended up only taking her in the front. The backyard was covered in dog feces, a few dead birds and trash. Also, we couldn't even open the gate (which was mentioned in the description) because it was almost falling down. We put up our own air mattress (which we had for a different part of our vacation) because we didn't feel the couch was clean. The next morning we all decided to pack up and leave as soon as we could load up the car. The pictures made the house look so cute but they did not accurately represent the house. Contact with the owner was fine, they passed along all the needed info (check in/out instructions etc) in a timely manner and I did feel they were accessible if needed. Unfortunately the state of the property was far beyond a simple call so we just stayed the night and left asap.

Perfect stay for graduation!
Property was super easy to access and clean upon arrival. It has a few little bumps and bruises (most likely from previous renters), but we were extremely pleased with it. The benefit of bringing our dog with us was a huge selling point as well! 10 out of 10 would stay here again!

Great alternative to hotel
We travel with our dogs and were looking for a place to overnight on our way to New Mexico. We were looking for an alternative to a hotel as our truck was broken into on a previous trip. This property was perfect. It was clean, very spacious and had a fenced yard - great for our dogs and a safe place to park our two cars. The area is quiet. Everything was provided for a comfortable stay. We would definitely book Holly House again.

Great place for Texas Tech visit
My son and I stayed here for 2 nights during a visit to Texas Tech. I was looking for a two room suite at a hotel but couldn't find one, so moved to VRBO. This home was a perfect solution. It was a few blocks from the school and was a nice size for what we needed. Communication was perfect. We had no issues during our stay and would reserve it again.
