Such a cute place to stray with the best host! Very attentive and sweet! Sarah checked in here and there to make sure we had what we needed during our stay. Great location for the medical district and within walking distance (or a short drive) to restaurants and shops. The adorable orange kitty who would sleep in the chair out in the yard has the biggest purr. Thank you Sarah for a comfy home away from home while we were there for medical care.

This was by far the best place I have ever stayed at. The facility was spotless and well taken care of. My son and I liked the “funky” style of the decor! It’s located in a great residential area that is very safe! I was here due to medical reasons and the host was more than accommodating for us. I’ve never felt so cared about in a stay like this. There aren’t enough stars available to properly assess her professionalism and genuine care of us. She provided snacks and basic food amenities that is way beyond what I ever anticipated. Stay here and you’ll be very well taken care of. This will be my Houston home away from home!!
We even made an apple pie here!

Everything to make our stay fantastic

From the start, Sarah, our host, reached out to us about our visit. She asked about snacks and drinks we liked, and for any other items that might make our stay better. We had all the check in information prior to our arrival and check in was smooth and easy. Our stay was the entire first floor of a nice older home in a very nice residential area between the Houston medical center area and Rice University. Many people were seen walking the neighborhood. There were many food places within walking distance.The VRBO was fantastic. There were many, small touches that any visitor would appreciate - snacks, drinks, phone chargers everywhere. The furniture was comfy. The kitchen and bathroom were well stocked. The beds and bedding were extremely comfortable. Everything was very welcoming. Check out was just as easy as check in. We would highly recommend this stay.
