A very neat, clean, and beautifully decorated house conveniently located near the Galleria and all the places we planned to visit. The host was warm and communicative throughout. I would definitely return to this property on my next trip to Houston.
Location is perfect! Great little neighborhood, right near everything. Lots of good space in the house - We could easily have had 6 people. I was able to spread out and work. Enclosed back yard for the dog was a bonus, even though it is a good place to walk him as well. Host most responsive, almost immediately after I'd send a question, he was on it. Lives close by and was able to come to the house to give me a "tech assist."
This clean & comfortable house has a great location in the Galleria area while also being in a quiet tranquil safe neighborhood. Had everything we needed plus extras like water and snacks. Would definitely book again.
The property was perfect for what my colleagues and I needed. 3 weeks of work and the neighborhood was perfect: clean, nice houses, nice neighbors, felt safe.

The home is very well kept. We loved the back yard to sit and enjoy the beautiful oak trees and allow our two furry friends to explore. Home is well equipped with all accessories . Great stay in Houston
This house is nice and in a safe small neighborhood good for walking our dog. For a couple with a dog, it was overpriced. There was no internet, wifi, cable tv. The owner did quickly respond and give us a $100 credit.
You may be able to find something cheaper, but you won’t find a better value. We’ve often found it challenging to stay in the Galleria area due to scattered pockets of crime, but this property exceeded our expectations. It’s tucked into a small, quiet neighborhood with limited access and friendly neighbors, which made us feel safe and comfortable throughout our stay. The location is also just a short drive to the heart of the Galleria.The property itself was wonderful—exceptionally comfortable with a cozy, lived-in feel. We stayed during the week of Christmas, and the home was tastefully decorated with holiday décor, which was a thoughtful and much-appreciated touch.Check-in was seamless, and the owner was extremely responsive to the few questions we had. We had no issues with 3 people separately streaming shows from the house wi-fi. We also enjoyed the jacuzzi, which was a great bonus. The house was well stocked, and although we didn’t cook during our stay, it was perfect for bringing back meals from nearby restaurants and enjoying them at home.Overall, we highly recommend this property and would absolutely stay here again.

Thank you for your thoughtful words and please come again anytime!
David and Marian’s home has everything you need and is a mile from the Galleria. Despite the busy hustle and bustle of the area, the neighborhood is quiet and we felt safe. Being pet friendly, having a fenced in yard, ample parking, and a hot tub, you really cannot beat it.
This was a great home for visiting with my family. Everything was left clean and organized. The back yard was beautiful and a great place for the dogs to run around...location is near restaurants and shopping, too. I hope to stay here again on our next visit.
Checked in few hours early and charged extra $75 — even though we agreed to it seemed a little ridiculous as we left before 11 am and didn’t get money back
Seems like it should be a courtesy not an up charge if the place is ready
Otherwise place was good location and very nice
Would be helpful to have basic instructions for the place on counter such as Wi-Fi password, where garage door opener is, trash pickup etc

Hi Gary,
Checking in 3 hours early is called early checkin. , my expenses don't stop! Sorry you didn't feel that way. You could have dropped off your luggage if that helps and enjoyed the town. Trash info. and garage remote were laying on Kitchen counter and I will add info for Wifi as you suggest. Thanks for staying and please come again. As a host I constantly try to improve your stay!

Definitely could have been better.
Owners need to invest in pest control. Were several roaches inside the house. Key pad instructions given were incorrect. Owner wanted their landscape people to come to the house during our stay and plant in the backyard. The outdoor space was one of the reasons we chose that property. We told them we didn't want them doing that, so they continued to drive by the property multiple times for the duration of our stay. Other than those issues, the stay was fine
This single family home provided a great deal of privacy in a quiet and safe neighborhood. It's conveniently located near everything you could possibly need. Very attentive property owner. We really enjoyed our two month stay here!
