About this property
Remodeled 1/1 with Old-World Charm
A central location for visitors coming to Houston with business downtown, convention center, sports venues and the University of Houston, TSU and South Texas College of Law, all within 2.4 miles. The apartment is cozy but open. The living spaces are open-floor plan while the bathroom and bedroom are more private. It is stylish yet comfortable, personal without the clutter. Quick access to I-59 and I-45 makes it easy to get to points further afield, such as the Medical Center.
The apartment is on the first floor of a beautiful old brick home built in the 1920's with elaborate eaves and a covered front porch. There are four adolescent live oaks on the corner-lot property. There are two other apartments on the property, one on the first floor and the other comprising the entire second floor. The apartment is approximately 750 square feet large. There are four steps up the front walkway to the front porch and the front door.
The front door opens onto the living space. The living area has a large sofa and a 32" television with upgraded cable. The contiguous dining area features a table that seats up to six.
The galley kitchen has just been installed and is equipped for six with dayware, vintage glassware, pots, pans, bakeware and basic condiments and spices. There is an electric range with vent, microwave, dishwasher, garbage disposal and refrigerator, as well as smaller appliances like a toaster and drip coffee maker.
A small hallway separates the living areas from the sleeping and bath quarters.
The bathroom has a full-size tub with shower, a sink and toilet. Linens are provided.
The bedroom features a queen-size bed with two nightstands, dresser and slipper chair. A large closet is shielded with a curtain and can accommodate hanging clothing, shoes and extra linens.
Two window units cool and heat the apartment, one in the living room and the other in the bedroom.
There are 11 windows in the unit, a front and back door. The windows are covered by cloth Roman shades for light and privacy.

Thank you, Kassie, for being such nice and considerate guests. We are glad to know you were comfortable and we are thankful that you chose our place. We wish you the best!
Lovely apartment with beautiful hardwood floors and glass block windows in the remodeled bathroom. Very comfortable stay. Our hostess was kind, she left us special goodies to celebrate our trip. We were happy to be close to downtown and Hobby airport. Great value and nice nest!
We needed to stay near campus and this one bedroom apartment fit the bill. Lovely bird paintings at the 'Nest', full fridge, comfy bed, and pleasant place to stay between dive practice and the meet

So glad you enjoyed your stay! We appreciate the care you took.
If you are thinking about renting this place, I cannot recommend it enough! The next time we come to Houston we'll definitely book this apartment again.The hosts were incredibly nice and helpful and were very patient with us. No matter what we needed help with, we always got a very fast response. The apartment itself is very homey and welcoming as well. It had everything you could possibly need. Just thinking about it makes me wanna go back again!

Thank you, Jessica. You were a pleasure to host. We truly appreciate the care you took of the Nest and we hope you return soon. Guests like you make our job easy and delightful. Thank you!
This is an absolute hidden GEM near downtown Houston! The remodeled apartment has a wonderful blend of modern and craftsman style charms! Very spacious with the open concept. The owners are simply perfect, amazing to work with, unbelievable communication, respect, and wonderful to interact with! They made me feel at home and like family! I will most definitely rent again from them any time i am in Houston!

good location for work at convention center
The location was good, hosts where communicative. The front porch, entry stairs and deadbolt were pretty hinky. The bed mattress was adequate but not great. Overall the place served my purpose while working long days at the convention center.

Thanks for your feedback, Lisa. We are sorry the unexpected front porch work had to be undertaken during your stay. We appreciate your patience and understanding. Once it is completed, those issues you mentioned should be resolved.

No parking for more than 1 vehicle
overall the property was very nice and very clean, It was really easy to check in and the property owner was very friendly and helpful. The one thing that I will say was terrible was there was only 1 small parking space. My wife and I had 2 vehicles and was told to use street parking, fair enough and i can understand that except there really was no additional street parking since it is a very busy neighborhood. This is basically a duplex or triplex maybe with tenants actively living in one portion of the home and they were not very friendly and their behavior was very childish especially when it came to the parking. the left notes on our cars and on the doors, they knocked on the doors at 1am and intentionally parked in the areas we were assigned to park in. The house did serve us well and was very comfortable with the exception of the above details.

Thank you for your comments, Robert. We are glad you had a good stay overall.
It is unfortunate that you ignored the property description saying there is one parking space for your apartment and the CLEAR instructions that I messaged you indicating where your assigned covered parking space was located. Instead you just decided to take the tenants' driveway spaces for yourself because it was more convenient for you. When they came home from work late at night and found their spaces taken by your cars, they were left without any place to park. Instead of having your cars towed, they left you notes asking you to move your cars and called me at 1:00 in the morning.
When I called you the next morning and asked you if your cars were in the wrong parking spaces (since I wasnt sure the cars were yours), you told me you took the parking spaces that didnt belong to you and STILL had not moved your cars even though you knew you had inconvenienced the whole building.
After checking out, you wrote me and told me you pulled your trucks ONTO the front lawn and backed up to the porch so you could more easily load the bags you packed for a 3-night stay into your cars.
Because of this, you gave us a 3-star review.
We have rarely, if ever, had such an inconsiderate guest. Your needs were put above everyone else's in the building and what was convenient to you was the only thing that mattered. Our other guests and tenants and their home was secondary.
Anton and Deborah were fantastic hosts. Upon my arrival, Anton was there to meet me, show me the particulars of the apartment and even recommended great restaurants in the local area. The apartment was very clean and had character. I did not want just another hotel room. It was a 3 minute drive from the U of Houston and 10 minutes from Downtown. I will definitely stay again the next time I’m in Houston to visit my son.

We love to travel and have experiences away from the familiar, although we enjoy the comforts of being at home. We know what it is like to stay in a home away from home and have tried to make our apartments places we would stay in ourselves: cozy, comfortable, intriguing, practical and clean!
