We did not stay at the property, there was one lock on the door which made us feel unsafe. The comforter on the bed had several stains on it. We were to share a common area with other people. It felt like a dorm room. It felt musty which was causing me to wheeze and my daughter to cough. The bathroom, though, was very clean.
A unique experience! Perhaps not for everyone, but I enjoyed it very much!

The heart of Houston
We loved meeting people at the B&B and the breakfast was fantastic! I also loved being at the center of Houston which was within walking distance of museums and galleries. Our room was small and certainly adequate, but not exactly what I expected. There is no outside window, but a door with a glass pane provides outside light.
Service is good. When we had problems with the internet (slow) and TV (confusing) someone came to help right away.
Parking was off-street, but the parking shelter erected had obstacles stored there and we couldn't get the car completely in. It was a little hazardous to walk through that area in the night.
I would stay here again, but would look at other rooms. Since most rooms are on higher floors, I also wouldn't pack a lot to keep from lugging suitcases up and down flights of stairs. The main reason I'd stay here is the breakfast and meeting interesting people.
The B&B is incredibly convenient to the Montrose neighborhood. We were in a very spacious room with one of the most comfy beds ever. Lots of stairs, so not recommended for anyone with stairs issues. Good parking on site. No issues with breakfast except for the last day when we were told to microwave the cold coffee in the urn. But I understand that the owners had a New Years' Party the night before, so it's whatever.
Lisa was very welcoming and recommended some very cool spots for us to check out! The B&B is located in a cool LGBTQ neighborhood and we loved that vibe! It wasn't bad for our 1st B&B experience. The only complaints I have are no control of the thermostat (we like it cold and it was 73-75 degrees in there) and limited parking. We only saw spots for 4 vehicles. If there were more options, we were unaware.
Maybe I misread the explanation, but I was expecting a charming B&B and I got a quasi hostel experience.
The bathroom was tiny, the shower/bathtub is in the room, not inside the bathroom, so very little privacy if you’re not a couple.
The fridge was super dirty and someone stole things I had left in there.
The good thing about it: location!

City has the road torn up on the side street, but I did not have any issues with parking or noise during my stay
