This property was in a great location for all the activities our family had planned in Houston, at the end of our days we played Nintendo in the game room. Parking was great for our large van. Comfortable beds, I would recommend and stay here again
Our stay at the property was exceptional. The accommodations was immaculate , the amenities on the property was great.(rooftop beautiful view and game room and hot tub in backyard).
Very clean and well stocked. I would definitely return to this property again.
This rental is exactly as described and more! It was a short uber to the ballpark. Plenty of space for all and the gameroom was a lot of fun! Communication with the owner is the best of any. Thank you for your hospitality!
Perfect !! It was the best vacation we have had . Beautiful home , amazing contact and service . So many little extras . We will for sure use this home again . I honestly do not have one negative!! Perfect experience!!
House is as described.
Lovely home. Everything you need is available for short or extended stay.
Checked in very late and it was so nice to wake up to coffee provided.
The roof top was so nice to sit out and see the Houston sky line in the evening.
Only caution is for anyone who has mobility issues and struggles with stairs as there are many.
Host was helpful and checked to see that everything was going well.
Would definitely recommend staying here.
Fantastic Rental in Houston, TX - Perfect for Families or Groups!
I recently had the pleasure of staying in this beautiful 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom rental in Houston and I can confidently say it exceeded my expectations! Bedrooms & Bathrooms: The three spacious bedrooms provided ample space for everyone in our group, and each bathroom was clean, well-stocked with toiletries, and beautifully decorated. It's great for both small groups and larger families. Kitchen: The large, fully equipped kitchen was perfect for making meals. We enjoyed cooking together, thanks to the modern appliances and plenty of counter space. It also had everything we needed from pots and pans to a coffee maker, making it feel like home. Game Room: The game room was a highlight! It had an amazing foosball table, and the selection of arcade video games kept us entertained for hours. It was a great spot for everyone to unwind after a day of exploring the city. Backyard & Hot Tub: The backyard with its hot tub was the perfect spot to relax in the evening. Whether it was enjoying a quiet moment under the stars or lounging after a fun day, the outdoor space was inviting and well-maintained. Location: The rental was in a great part of Houston, close to downtown dining, shopping, and a variety of attractions. It made getting around easy and convenient. Overall, I highly recommend this property if you're looking for a comfortable and fun place to stay in Houston.
