Beautiful home in the heart of the city

This home was beautiful and very close to the city which made it convenient to get around during our staycation. However, throughout our stay we discovered a few dead and live roaches around the house and in each of the 3 rooms. This could be due to the heat/time of year in Houston but overall we enjoyed our stay.

The listing is very accurate. Beautiful home in excellent condition. House is three levels which I didn’t realize. Neighborhood appears to be a revitalization area with many new properties. Communication with owners was prompt and courteous.

Fantastic stay minutes from downtown Houston

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The townhome was clean, very comfortable, attractive, and well appointed, just as described. Communications with the owner were prompt and helpful. We had no hitches in our stay and would stay there again. As others have noted, this townhome is located in a neighborhood that is in transition, in a positive direction. There is lots of new construction happening here. We had a positive experience with the neighborhood, and used Uber a couple times to get around.

Loved this home beautiful decor as shown in the photos. Cozy, Clean & spacious. Great location, close to downtown. House was equipped with everything we needed, even games for when we wanted to stay in. Will definitely recommend and stay again when in Houston. The only thing I would suggest is adding a full body mirror as we love to check ourselves out before heading out. Overall great experience. :)

Redeveloping Neighborhood

We were on a golf trip and the house was perfect for us. Location gives easy access to downtown, sports venues and freeways. Three ensuites were great. There are a lot of stairs to be aware of if that is a concern. The area is being redeveloped and there weren’t any restaurants etc. close by and we didn’t feel comfortable walking the neighborhood. Ubers are easy to acquire.

Reviews are accurate.

Reading the other reviews, they are pretty accurate. They were several dead bugs throughout the home, which didn’t bother us. To me, that only means whatever poison they are putting down for them is working. Other than that, the house was very clean! The home’s location is so very close to everything I had on my itinerary. Location is perfect! The home is so lovely! Beautifully decorated! And it’s only right that it should have a full length mirror. A house full of women and we really needed one. IYKYK. Whenever I reached out to the owner, she replied very promptly. We arrived in HTX a little earlier than expected, and we had no problem with checking in a little early. The only thing that gave us some difficulties were the fan/light remotes and the thermostat. The thermostat would reset after 2 hours and sometimes it would get pretty warm. When using the fan remotes, one remote would control the other fans and lights on the other 2 floors as well. So when turning my light off and fan on, it would turn someone else’s light on and fan off. One night this gave us a really good laugh lol. And a couple of the remotes didn’t work. One didn’t have a battery and the other remote needed a new battery. It also seemed to us that nobody had been to the home in a while. Not in a bad way. You could just tell though. And I can’t forget about the mattresses! They were sooo comfortable! Overall, the home 10/10. I would highly recommend. And I would definitely stay again!
