Wonderful stay! The property being gated made us feel extra safe and comfortable, especially traveling with our two children. The home was clean, cozy, and family-friendly, which made the trip so much easier and more relaxing for us. We really appreciated the peace of mind and would definitely stay here again! We didn’t use the kitchen much as we were out and about most of our stay but it’s a beauty!

I think the only thing renovated was the kitchen. Invest in some curtains in the bedrooms as the outside lights stay on all night and shine through the windows. The upstairs renters played loud music and walked around very heavy footed, Nowhere did this listing even mention this was a split 2 story!

Relaxing stay

The family and I were there for a week, and loved it. The host was very accommodating, even checked in on us while we were there. The neighborhood was quiet and really close to downtown. Next time we stay in Huston I hope this property is available.

The place was very clean! Thank you. The furnishings were not the best. Only one nightstand table and one lamp per bedroom. The living room chair had a slip cover which would not stay in place. Driveway and gate are definitely not convenient. So over all it was okay but I probably would not stay there again.

My stay here was amazing! The house was spotless and so beautifully put together every little detail felt intentional. It had such a cozy, homey vibe that made me feel comfortable and relaxed the entire time. Everything was set up perfectly and the space was exactly what I hoped for. I truly appreciated the warmth and care that went into making this place feel like home away from home. Highly recommend!
