The house was great for our weekend in Houston. Clean, spacious, kitchen well appointed. Close and convenient to everything. There were several lights out throughout the house, especially primary bathroom. The neighborhood was a little sketchy. Bordering on a couple questionable streets. I felt safe in the house, but wouldn’t go walking around.

We chose the location because of family living nearby.Only problem that comes to mind: it was difficult to find in the evening because the house number was not visible in the dark.
