About this property

The Monticello Guest House - Charming M Streets - Dallas

Our very clean and comfortable guest house is situated in an historic neighborhood, full of charming 1920's and 1930's Tudor homes. The Monticello Guest House offers all the amenities of home. A full bathroom with a claw foot tub and shower, hairdryer, iron and ironing board, a kitchenette with a mini stainless steel fridge, double burner cooktop, coffee maker, microwave, and toaster. Dishes, glasses, utensils and cookware are all provided.

The guest house has a comfortable queen sized bed with a pillow-top mattress. Extra linens, pillows, blankets and towels are provided. Smart TV includes Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Hulu Plus (with Eero Wifi for a strong signal). New heating and air conditioning unit ensures your comfort.

You can expect a very relaxing, private stay with keyless entry. The owners are available by text if there is anything you need.

We are right in the heart of the M Streets, walking distance to all the fun on Lower Greenville Ave. (cute coffee shops, great restaurants, grocery stores and nightlife). Walk the other direction and you are in the Knox Street District with upscale and boutique shopping, and more amazing restaurants and nightlife. We love great food so you will find a list of recommended restaurants and nearby attractions in the guest house.

We are located just a few blocks from Central Expressway with close proximity and easy access to Downtown, Uptown, Mockingbird Station, Knox-Henderson, SMU, Northpark Mall, The Dallas Arboretum and just a few blocks from Katy Trail.

I had a very nice stay on Monticello St. the space was as described, clean, with no surprises. Fantastic location. Didn’t see the owner at all. Easy check-in and super-easy check-out. Great AC, shower, and street parking perfect. Would definitely stay there again.

Check in was easy, the perfect size for 1-2 people, quiet neighborhood and within walking distance to some local shops. It's hard to locate at night due to the minimal street lights in the neighborhood, but thanks to another reviewer I found the house number on the walkway stairs. If you are short or have mobility issues, getting into and out of the shower-tub can be quite a big step.

The guest house was spacious make up of a large bedroom with a small kitchenette and a bathroom with a nice shower. The property was clean, well decorated and quiet. The bed and bedding were very comfortable. One thing to note is that you have to park on the street. There was plenty of room to park but something to consider. Second thing was I was unable to figure out to lock the guest house when I left for the day. It is a keypad entry and I couldnt get it to lock.Finally, and this does not impact my overall rating, but there is no outdoor lighting of the path to the guest house at night. I arrived in late evening, and found it unnerving to walk down the driveway to the back of the property in the pitch darkness. Saying this, I would definitely consider staying here again.

NOT for Seniors

Attractive place in great location, but we had problems. We had pre-arranged early check-in, but the unit was still dirty from the previous guest. Since we had dismissed our transportation, this left us stranded with luggage for 1.5 hours in 95 degree heat.The tub is an antique claw-foot - charming but inaccessible for Seniors like us. Certainly not ADA compliant.There is a coffee maker but we were told we had to buy our own decaf. Not very accommodating.Attractive, quiet space - but NOT for Seniors.Pix are how we found the unit when we entered.

Dallas Stay

We stayed at this property for a wedding. Check in process was easy and the instructions were clear. We had some issues with ants and the host was so kind and super responsive! Our only complaint is the space could use some upgrading there is some foundation settling which led to lots of gaps in the windows and we did have a lot of bugs entering. Of course we understand this is part of spring in Texas but the space could use a little TLC from a structural stand point and is just something to be aware of when staying here.

About the host

Hosted by Becky Leigh

Host profile image
I am a writer, actress and Martha Stewart wanna-be originally from the East Coast. After living on the West Coast for seven years, I now call Dallas home. The safe, fun and walkable location of the M Streets has made the transition from the coasts to Dallas very easy! I hope you have a great stay in Dallas!

Why they chose this property

We chose to live in the M Streets because we love the neighborhood! It is safe and quiet with very friendly neighbors, but we are just a couple of blocks away from restaurants, bars and coffee shops. One of our favorite things to do is to get up in the morning and walk for breakfast or coffee. The streets are lined with trees, offering plenty of shade and the homes are so quaint and charming, it makes the walks very pleasant. The entrance to Katy Trail (a paved 3.5 mile pedestrian, cycling and rollerblading trail) is just a short walk from our house. If we want a longer walk, we love to walk to Katy Trail Ice House and have breakfast tacos or lunch. Because I am from the East Coast, an easy trip to the airport was important to me when choosing a place a live. I love that we are so close to central expressway, getting anywhere in Dallas is very convenient.
