Weekend Getaway

Enjoyed our stay for our daughter's ring ceremony at Tech. Lubbock neighborhoods are hit or miss, and this location is okay. Parking is tight but workable.

Heart of Italy

Great little place for a couple to have a getaway! Wish we could have used the hot tub but the hours we were home were not conducive to use it - but it is a great setup! If we ever travel to Lubbock again - we hope this place is available - we would 1000% come back!Thank you!

Clean and Accurate

The rooms were very clean and had all necessary supplies appliances and utensils were provided. Some infrequent street noise and limited parking were the only drawbacks. Otherwise it’s a small quiet place to stay for a couple.
