Relaxing stay

The family and I were there for a week, and loved it. The host was very accommodating, even checked in on us while we were there. The neighborhood was quiet and really close to downtown. Next time we stay in Huston I hope this property is available.

Simple quiet home

The downstairs duplex was located in a diverse neighborhood of Houston in a convenient part of town. The parking felt safe behind the house behind gates. We liked the cleanliness of the home overall but felt it needed some upkeep in terms of mattress (one was super sunken in the middle) and one bedroom AC that did not work. It was nice that they had a washer and dryer.

Houston Stay

Property was exactly as listed. We stayed in the downstairs section of the property and entered through the back door. I would suggest allowing downstairs guests to use the front door for retrieving door dash/Urber eats delivery. It was very difficult to get drivers to come around back in the dark.

Great place Will repeat!

Communication Was very easy and very prompt. The place was very clean, even though we never use the kitchen. It was very nice. Plenty of sheets and blankets for a cold person like myself. It was close to many places to eat and but we mostly order in. I will deff book this place again for all my travels to this part of Texas!

Overall property was a nice place to stay. The surrounding neighbourhood is being regentrified so there was lots of construction going on and often piles of garbage left on the curbs. The suite itself was nice and clean. We did have some issues getting the A/C units to regulate resulting in some extreme temperatures. The host was quick to respond to messages. All and all would stay again.

Cozy, Convenient and Well priced

My teenage son and I stayed here for the World Robotics competition held at the convention center. It was a 6-8 minute drive to a parking lot that was a 5 minute walk - most parents paid 2-6 times what we did to get there in the same amount of time. We also spent a day at the Natural Science museum and it was a quick drive there as well. Although we were away most of the day, it was a lovely place to come back to in the evening and we always felt safe - even on late nights after 9 or 10. Plenty of hot water (we both take long showers) and having separately controlled AC in all of the rooms was lovely. Angelina was a great host! My son asked if we could stay here again next year.

Decent but needs some love.

There's a whole genre of rentals where the owner bought it and/or rehabbed it and hasn't reinvested any money or effort into it since. This is one of those rentals. The place is in a convenient area and it's a pretty nice unit, but it needs some love. The floors were installed without proper subflooring so in various spots the floor sinks in like you're going to fall into a hole. The blinds are pretty ragged and they're white so the Houston sun really heats up the unit and will wake you up as soon as it rises. One of the chairs had legs that were falling off (just toss it) and the other one had stains all over it. The tub and trim outside the tub all needs recaulked because it's falling apart. I pulled enough lint out of the dryer vent to fill a jacket (not sure if it had ever been emptied). No lamps in the living room so it's full blast ceiling or nothing. Chandelier missing bulbs and other bulbs mismatched. Lack of basics like paper towels, laundry soap, etc. Again, not a bad place but with a few quick repairs and reinvesting basically what I alone paid for a rental fee, this place could be back to pretty much perfect. VRBO please let guests upload pics.
