Great place
Bright, light living space, great AC, tv/streaming/internet connections. Easy in and out, safety not a concern. Quiet neighbors and location. Nothing too far away at all - dining and shopping all within a short drive. Communicative and available host for any concerns.

Would stay here again. Location was close to the medical center, downtown and University of Houston which worked great for us!
Thank you, Ike!

Plenty of room with a bonus of a garage to park the car
The garage was nice to have on a rainy day. It's almost a necessity at this location because the car goes in the garage or in front of it. There were two locations next to the street where fire ants erupted and the host had someone take car of it the next day. First time I experienced a TV that supported Airplay. We slept on the ground floor because it was easier to let the dogs out from there rather than trekking up and down two flights of stairs. The stairways are easy to climb as my old dog was able to go up and down them with relative ease. There was adequate closet space, but I would have found the stay a little easier if there were some larger bedside tables and some kind of dresser/table in the bedrooms. I have a place to lay out items I take out of pockets in the evening and put them back in the morning.
We also use CPAPs. We supported one with a waste bucket turned upside down. The little round bedside tables hardly had enough flat surface for one.
First time I cooked with a silicon spatula for cooking. I would have liked to have a larger frypan, but otherwise you had everything to prepare meals to include salt and pepper.
There were two little corrals in the complex where you could take your dog that were stocked with waste bags. I would choose this place again if I ever return to Houston.

Perfect location for MD Anderson
The house was amazing and in the perfect location for us. It was just barely over a mile from MD Anderson. The neighborhood felt safe and I ran every night with no worries. Ike was an amazing host and checked on us throughout the week. The next trip to Houston we will definitely stay here again.
