Here Are A Few Kind Words From Our Previous Guests:

"This was a great place to stay. The area is beautiful, the small-town feel right in the middle of Houston, it’s amazing!
Lots of great restaurants within walking distance and you have everything you need within a couple of minutes ride. It’s also super convenient to downtown and the airport.
The place had everything to make you feel at home. I especially loved how well stocked the kitchen was. I would definitely stay again and can’t recommend it enough!
The team was very responsive." - Maria

"This place is a lovely dream. Located in a safe, beautiful and quiet area of Houston, it has essential amenities for a pleasant stay.
The photos are descriptive but being in the place is even better and there is more space. The cleanliness and the linens are impeccable.
There are also details such as guest robes, detergent and games.
In addition to the services described and the decoration with great personality and taste, the agile and assertive response, detailed and proactive information and the support of the team stand out.
My friend and I arrived after terrible experiences in well-known hotels to improve our stay. What we regret the most is not being able to stay an extra night, because we booked badly by accident and there were already guests, however, the team looked for alternative accommodations to offer us.
I think this place is very useful for small families or groups of friends, to capitalize on the grill, for example." - Olivia

"Outstanding location, super-convenient to Houston downtown and northern suburbs. Owners gave clear directions, and responded quickly to my every query. Was exactly what we needed for a family event and dinner! Bravo." - Bob

Looking for a morning walk? You've come to the right place! This neighborhood has a high walking score and it's very safe to walk around.

The best way to get around the neighborhood is by vehicle. There is parking space on the driveway (2 cars). NO street parking. MAX 2 CARS AT ALL TIMES.

This property is also conveniently located close to the METRO system (bus and light-rail transportation). You can use your phone GPS to find the best METRO route. Finally, you can always use UBER or other ridesharing platforms to move around.

• Please note that though the listing shows 4 beds, there are only 2 actual beds. The last two “beds” are high-quality air mattresses—one full-size and one twin-size.

• To keep the yard in great shape, our lawn care team visits every other week. They may stop by during your stay, but don’t worry – they’ll only be working outside and won’t take more than an hour to finish. Please note that this routine service is necessary and it’s hard to reschedule.

Location is the draw. Fantastic walking area for exercise, food, shopping, and exploring. I am a person who needs a little more natural light and comfort, but I am 65. Great spot for younger folks, but definitely functional for everybody. Highlight is sitting on front porch and watching all the people and dogs walking the neighborhood. Responsive hosts!

hank you for such a thoughtful review Joan! We’re so glad you enjoyed the location, the walkable neighborhood, and just sitting on the porch watching the people and dogs go by. That's one of our favorite parts, too! We truly appreciate your feedback regarding the comfort and lighting; we love welcoming guests of all generations and are always looking for ways to make the space even cozier for everyone. It was an absolute pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to have you back anytime!
