The property matched the photos, and the location is great. Very close to so many restaurants and things to do. The beds are firm, if you like that. The communication with the owners was prompt and helpful. The whole place is very clean. Parking on the street was tricky, but we were able to carefully fit 2 small SUVs in the garage.

Great loaction

The VRBO was really nice and had everything we needed. The hosts were great and were very responsive. The house is well setup and the sunken living is a great place to converse. It was also lovely that they left us a bottle of wine to enjoy. I plan on booking this place again when I am in Houston. It’s a great location in a safe neighborhood.

Family Weekend/Cowboy Carter (Beyonce) Concert

We couldn’t have made a better choice regarding our accommodations for our “Cowboy Carter” weekend in Houston. The location was inviting; beautiful houses and townhomes lined the streets; and great restaurants were within 10 mins from our location. Everything at the home was just as described with each room perfectly matching the photos. Three floors of well decorated spaces added an ambiance that was uniquely suited for our home away from home. We will FOR SURE book with our hosts again.

Disappointing stay, checked out EARLY

Listing pictures and descriptions looked great, however buyer beware...... Our first impression was pretty terrible. The garage had a FILTHY smell to it, like garbage had been left there for many days in the Houston heat. Also, there was hundreds of flies in the garage and they were swarming everywhere. The first floor bedroom had a similar garbage smell and the flies were in that bedroom as well. Upon entering the house, we noticed a moldy smell as if this house had previous water damage that was covered up or repaired. The kitchen sink had a terrible smell coming from the disposal as well. It was as if food was left in the disposal without being cleaned. The toilet on the 3rd floor guest bedroom was non-operational and I had to add additional water with a cup to flush the toilet. The mattress/frame on the 3rd floor guest bedroom was also one of the most terrible mattresses the guests slept on. They said that they could hear squeaking/creaking with every small move they made while laying down which led to an absolute terrible nights rest.The towels in the bathroom felt cheap and they did not absorb any water, which led to a very uncomfortable experience after our first shower. Also, the sink vanities in this house were much lower than the standard height so all of us nearly broke our backs while trying to wash our faces.We were so uncomfortable during our stay that we didnt even stay the last night. We all decided to just check out early and end our vacation.

Hi Jeffrey, We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience and the issues you’ve encountered during your stay. As hosts, our top priority is to provide a comfortable and enjoyable environment for all our guests, and we work extremely hard to accommodate our guests to the best of our abilities. I will take this time to address all of your points. In regards to the mattress and towels, this is a first we have heard of these issues. We purchase our products carefully, weighing in research and reviews, with our guests’ comfort in mind. The mattresses we have in the home are 10 inch Gel Memory Foam Mattress with CertiPUR-US Bed Mattress, chosen because it keeps cool and features pressure relief. Although slightly higher priced, we purchase bamboo linens and sheets to accommodate any guest sensitivities as well as for the bamboo properties of absorbency, breathability, and hypoallergenic properties. We understand that they may not be exactly to your requirements but we have done our best to choose quality products for our guests. As for the toilet, you stated it was fixed and when we checked on it, it was functioning as expected. As for the features of the home, we understand the sink vanities are not built to the your height standard but this is truly not in our control as we are not authorized to make the decision for these types of major construction changes to the home. As for the smells and flies mentioned, when we received your message, we came over to address all the issues you mentioned within the hour, while providing updates. There were no smells from the disposal and it was functioning (but we still treated it) , the garage was empty save for the empty trash bin (which was switched out with another empty bin). Despite not seeing any flies, we still sprayed treatment and set out traps. We take pride in our standard of cleanliness and sanitization for our homes. Our team timestamps every turnover to document the home is prepared and sanitized for every guest. We also personally checked on the home before your arrival so we were shocked to receive this message but went over to address the issues within the hour. And again, despite not seeing any issues you mentioned in your message, we still applied preventative treatments. Despite these resolutions, you informed us that you will be checking out early, which we respected your decision to do so. You also disclosed that unless “we are willing to work with you”, you will post a review. We interpreted this as an attempt at extortion. Although very rare, this is not the first time a guest has tried to make false claims about our home in exchange for refunds. It is the unfortunate reality of this business. Due to this, we have made a practice of documenting thoroughly; every point mentioned earlier can be proven via receipts and photos/videos. As evidenced by other reviews, we have built a reputation of high standards of hospitality and going above and beyond for our guests. Again, we sincerely regret that your stay was not as expected and we will take this situation as a training opportunity as we continue to strive in our pursuit of excellent hospitality. -Ben and Christine
