About this property

The Downtown Abbey- The Parlour

About this space
This historic space is centered right in the heart of San Marcos. Its European design curated with care for exceptional style and comfort
The space
The Parlour is nestled in the heart of the Downtown Abbey. Our middle unit in our triplex boasts vaulted ceilings, stained glass windows and plenty of space to stretch out and enjoy your stay in downtown San Marcos. This unique space is a stones throw away from the best attractions San Marcos has to offer.
Guest access
All of the spaces within the unit are private and available for use exclusively by the tenants.

You will have complete access to the entire space of The Parlour.
Other things to note
The Abbey is a 120 year old church building that has been converted into a tri-plex over the years. There are many quirks to a building this old! There is one shared wall- the hallway- within the unit. The farmhouse kitchen is equipped but please note we offer a Ninja tabletop air fryer for oven usage (it can roast an entire chicken!) and the stove top is a countertop double cast iron burner as pictured.


There are absolutely NO PARTIES allowed. Since the building is divided into a tri-plex, out of respect for our other guests, we do not allow parties. Quiet hours are between 10PM-8AM. If there is evidence of a party or a noise violation, there is a $300 penalty and we will ask you to leave immediately.

Cute space!
Very cute space! Pillows were a bit flat, but otherwise beds were comfortable. Bathroom is a clawfoot tub only (not deal breaker, just important to know). It shares walls with other units, and they have a lot of notices posted about noise, so worth noting if you're trying to have a somewhat rowdy weekend with friends.

Eclectic, Charming and Excellent Location
Fun and funky place with cute eclectic touches. The owner was communicative-I emailed him about a small issue and he was calling to come right away. I didn’t need it fixed, just wanted to give him a heads up. Location is fabulous!! It was refreshing to stay somewhere so unique. The bedding was exceptional!

Would not recommend
When we showed up the the home, there was other people’s stuff in the house, beer in the sink- it was obvious the homeowner double booked the place. Thank God we didn’t barge in on anyone else or vice versa. Def. not cool! We found ourselves trying to book a hotel room at 9pm. When we call VRBO to get our refund they seemed ok that the homeowner double booked despite my concerns that this is a huge safety concern. Definitely will not be booking through this platform ever again.

Great historic place near the Square!
A friend and I had a great stay! You can walk to close by restaurant and the Square. Great location for San Marcos. We loved the personality of the apartment in an old church. Decorated well and a great stocked kitchenette. The property manager was great too and helped us get in with the door code. This is only a one bathroom though, but the listing said two bathrooms. It worked for us, but might be more difficult if it is two couples staying in the unit. We loved this place though and would definitely stay again.
