I had a wonderful stay in Houston thanks to this host. The house was absolutely accommodating and perfectly stocked. Close to the hotspots, everything we wanted to do on our trip was within 15 minutes. The interior of this house was a stunning, moody, eclectic vibe. I absolutely will be searching for their other properties the next time I plan a trip.

The home was lovely, well-appointed, and comfortable. It had a great kitchen with everything we needed, including coffee, condiments, and generous snacks. Having 2 1/2 bathrooms was particularly nice. It appeared to have been built and furnished for someone to actually live in, rather than as a rental. The location was convenient for our purposes, and the communication was great. The property (parking in particular) was a bit tight, though the instructions were clear as to navigating it. The next door neighbor has a too-large RV that interferes with parking, though I’m guessing there’s nothing to be done about that. Our stay was great and I’d recommend this place!

Immaculate condition, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully stocked with every necessity. The furniture and bedding are incredibly comfortable—the online pictures don't even do this place justice. It was the perfect, peaceful retreat to unwind after a hot and busy World Cup experience. Book it without hesitation!
