Great Location
The location of this property is amazing it is close to everything and super convenient. The cleanliness though is not great, minimal at best. The door in the back where you're supposed to enter was broken and did not lock (not very safe). Overall it was a good stay but I would not return.

Comfortable and safe
Safe area, close to good restaurants and the museum district. The hosts were friendly and helpful.
My daughter and teenager grandchildren were in for a weekend of rodeo. Convenient for an evening walk to the park and also Metro rail.
Would recommend.

A very nice apartment
I stayed for several cold and rainy days. Bishp’s Haven was cozy, clean and well equipped. I didn’t use it much but the kitchen is particularly nice.

Fantastic Thanksgiving Holiday Stay!
My husband, college age daughter, and I stayed at the Bishop’s Haven 1 during the Thanksgiving holiday & weekend. We had a wonderful stay! We chose the property because of the location and it did not disappoint. We were minutes away from everything we wanted to do, and wished we had more time to explore the museums and restaurants in the area. Our dog accompanied us on our trip, and my daughter and I felt comfortable taking him out for his evening walk as there were many neighbors out and about doing the same - overall we felt very safe at the property.
We found the Bishop’s Haven 1 to be exactly as advertised! It was clean, the kitchen had everything we needed, and there was more than enough seating for all of us and a couple of guests in the living room.
Overall, we had an excellent stay and will not hesitate to book again when in Houston!
