This space is very clean and cozy. It’s nice and quiet also. The area that it’s in is pretty nice and was very convenient for me to be able to go to the hospital for testing and appointments. The house is also close to everything so it’s very easy to get food or go shopping. I would definitely stay here again!
It was very nice and clean. Very modern! Mattress was not comfortable.

Thank you so much for the kind words about the cleanliness and modern style — we really appreciate that! On the mattress front, comfort is definitely personal — some guests love firmer support while others prefer something softer, so we totally understand that might not have been the perfect fit for you. We’re so glad you enjoyed the rest of your stay, and we’d love to have you back!
Really cute and clean place. Looks like picture. Comfortable bed, pillows and sheets. Host was great. The museum area can be rundown. But my family felt safe. Nice back area.

Thank you so much for staying with us and for the kind words! We're glad you found the place clean, comfortable, and just like the photos — and especially that your family felt safe and enjoyed the back area. We'd love to host you again anytime!
The unit was convenient to downtown where we were attending a concert. It was clean, beds were comfortable, yard was large and fully enclosed which was convenient, as we were traveling with our dog. The neighborhood was quiet and appears to be in transition with older homes that need work, some being renovated, and new ones being built.
I stayed for a couple of nights to attend an event at the Houston Zoo. The location was perfect — less than 15 minutes to Hermann Park/the zoo and easy access to all kinds of stuff in the city. And it’s such a cute place. The backyard was so nice to unwind at the end of each day.
Gaston was an awesome host! The home was beautifully decorated and so inviting. The record player was our favorite touch. The backyard was absolutely beautiful and such a relaxing space. Anytime I sent a message, Gaston responded quickly. We truly enjoyed our stay.
Stayed here with my daughter for our trip to Houston. Location was perfect - very centrally located and easy to get to everything. We explored many parts of the city and were never more than 30 min away from our destination - most were within 10-15 minutes. The unit was very clean and cute. Beds were comfortable and towels were fluffy. The backyard was a nice bonus. We were able to enjoy the stock tank pool one evening. Gaston was very responsive in all communication and check out was very painless - no endless lists of things to do before checking out. We were a little wary of staying in the Third Ward but this place is on a nice quiet street and we never felt uncomfortable. Highly recommend.
This place is awesome! We had another host cancel last minute and we were able to book with Gaston which was the best decision. The home was extremely clean and smelled great when we walked in. Nice, clean appliances and rooms with great natural light. I will definitely be coming back when I make my annual road trips to Houston. Gaston is a great host who communicated! In person is even better than the pics.
Gaston runs a tight ship! The location was clean and accessible, and the decorations were nice too. Would absolutely recommend for visitors to Houston looking for a good place.
This home was beautifully decorated and clean. The outdoor area in the back was an added bonus ( wish they had sprayed for mosquitoes) my only complaint was the shower,

Thank you so much, Cara! We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the décor and cleanliness, and that the backyard was a nice bonus during your stay. Regarding your note about the mosquitoes — while we do our best to maintain the outdoor area, it’s something a bit out of our control due to the natural environment. As for the shower, we’re sorry we didn’t get more detail, but we’ll certainly keep an eye on it. We appreciate your feedback and hope to host you again in the future!
We had a nice stay! The space was comfortable, and the location was great. Coffee shops, groceries and food are available within 10min drive.One thing to note is that extra supplies like towels and toilet paper are available upon request but weren’t mentioned in the listing or check-in details. It would be helpful for future guests to have this information upfront.Overall, the host was responsive, and we appreciated the effort put into the space.

Thank you so much for your kind words, Skander! I’m really glad you enjoyed the space and found the location convenient — it’s great to hear that it worked well for your trip to NRG. Thanks also for the feedback regarding extra supplies like towels and toilet paper — that’s a helpful note, and I’ll make sure to clarify that better in the listing and check-in info for future guests. I truly appreciate your stay and hope to host you again anytime you’re back in Houston!
It was a nice staty. However it needs a better cleaning. Also when it came to cooking there is no pans for the oven. So I couldn't physically cook a meal unless it was stove top. No toaster so I couldn't toast waffles or toast for my kid's. Area However was quiet. Most of the housewaa clean.
We had a wonderful time in the house. Everything is very clean and decorated nicely. If I were to have one thing that has negative feedback is the outlay of the shower. It causes the floor to get really wet unless you back into a corner of the shower. Cool concept, just not super practical. The back patio area is fantastic. We were disappointed that the weather was not forgiving enough to enjoy. Our host is very responsive and kind. We had a perfect weekend. .
We stay in many vrbo rentals since 2010. Many in Houston. This is by far the cleanest, most pristine yet! The furniture is sturdy, new & well kept. The bedding is immaculate & fresh. The kitchen, contrary to other reviews of this home, well appointed, plenty of cooking necessities, pans, etc.There is another unit above this one, which, depending on the guests, we were able to hear them walk around, not unlike many hotels or multi-unit homes. The shower is great, partially enclosed, ala many newly renovated ‘spa’ bath rooms. Water splashing onto the floor was not an issue. I can see, with kiddos, how it might be.We recommend this rental for adult couples and/or with quieter, older kids.Parking was not an issue, whether in the driveway or on the street!
Everything was great about the property, cleanliness and the owner was super responsive. There’s a charcoal grill - no charcoal, no lighter. Laundry in unit, no detergent to wash clothes. Dishwasher - no pods (they did say they could drop some off) Pots and pans we wanted to use were dirty. Great spot for a quick trip, but you’ll need to buy “stuff” to use any amenities to cook or clean.

Hi Josh,
Thank you for your feedback! I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the property, its cleanliness, and my responsiveness. I always strive to provide a great experience for my guests.
I’d like to clarify that, as mentioned in the listing description, charcoal for the grill, wood for the fire pit, and laundry detergent are not provided. I do my best to ensure guests are aware of this beforehand so they can plan accordingly. As for the dishwasher pods, I offered to drop some off, but I understand you opted to purchase them yourself.
I also appreciate your note about the cookware, and I will make sure my cleaning team checks them more thoroughly moving forward. Your feedback helps me improve, and I truly appreciate you choosing to stay.
Safe travels, and I’d love to host you again in the future!
