    The train car had not been cleaned since the last occupants and a cleaning crew was not available so we didn’t get to stay

I came down to celebrate my birthday along with my teenage grandson. We are both history buffs and was so excited to see how well preserved a part of American history remains!

    Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location is good and very walkable to some great restaurants, main street and groceries. The train car was way too cluttered, difficult to find a spot to set down a bag, the main bathroom had a rotten out door because the shower leaks so much, quite dusty and felt dirty. The AC unit did not cool down the bedroom or kitchen of the unit - and we were there on a 92 degree day, not the heat of TX summer. The idea is great, but execution mediocre at best. Needs quite a bit of TLC as someone else mentioned last year.

    This was one of the most unique stays! You have to stay here on your stay in Fredericksburg! The train car was decorated in authentic (or what appeared to be) furnishings, especially highlighting President Theodore Roosevelt. It was bigger than expected. The days and nights were very quiet and peaceful. It will help if you bring a small flashlight to use if walking back at night because it can be dark as you approach the train car. The hall/walkway down the train car is narrow, so it would not be comfortable for overly large individuals.

    We had an overall great trip, could have used more lighting outside for coming and going in the evening. But with that being said it was interesting place to stay. I would stay again.

    The Pullman is an interesting step back in history. The preservation of the railcar character adds to ambience. The Pullman is a nice place for a romantic getaway. Only drawback was the people trying to use it as a background for photos. The steps are a little step to the entrance but not horrible

    We very much enjoyed our stay in the train car. The AC kept us cool, it was very quiet, and a close walk or drive to everything in town.
