Corner/convenience store located 2 blocks of your Airbnb! This is a good place to grab snacks, drinks, or needed travel items such as soap or deodorant, as well as hot food. Infact their food is so good I felt it needed recognition so I listed it here instead of the convenience store category. Their menu is online and was recognized on Yelp for having a variety of good food such as burgers, chicken salad, pork chops, fish and even breakfast. NO ATM

This museum has 4 floors and is completely interactive fun for all ages! Each section has a different subject such as space or dinosaurs. I spent 4 hours and still didn't see everything! The 4D movies are extra but worth it. The Dallas world Aquarium is nextdoor so sometimes you can find deals for both online.
