New home away from home
A friend and I stayed for a long weekend in this beautiful home. The home had today’s modern conveniences, but kept the charm of a 1930-40 bungalow. Beautiful wood floors look original, and had an updated small kitchen overlooking the charming garden. There was plenty of room for two and would be good for two couples. We ate at a great restaurant just steps away, and were so close to Rice Univ and the Montrose area. The host was more than nice and helpful. Never had to wait for a response. Even helped to carry our bags out. This will be our go-to stay in Houston from now on.

Such a warm, comfortable place for a relaxing weekend in Houston! The best kitchen we've had for a short term rental, quite well stocked! Convenient location to venues and great restaurants! Host has thought of every touch to make this a special place. The great reviews are well-deserved!

Long weekend in Houston
Took my 92 years old father to Houston to see his granddaughter for Easter weekend. Anton met us upon arrival at night with the property well lit, helping us get settled. We were greeted with a bottle of wine, fruit, water, snacks, as well as a personal note. The property was well stocked with bath towels and toiletries. Deborah communicated well throughout the entire process. The neighborhood is walkable to many great restaurants and coffee shops. Thank you for sharing your lovely home.

Ideal location, ideal size, ideal for us. 3 people in Houston for Foto Fest who dined in one night (tip-top kitchen) and also ate out nearby. Very tranquil and quiet at night. Also Menil and St Thomas nearby.

A Home Away from Home
We enjoyed our 4 night stay in this very comfortable and spacious townhouse in Montrose. The location is excellent, within walking distance to several restaurants and supermarkets. The very well equipped kitchen provided us with everything we needed to cook a delicious dinner which we enjoyed in the attractively furnished dining room. An ideal home away from home.

A home from home in Montrose
This felt like home from the minute we stepped in. We then saw the welcoming flowers, snacks, fruit and bottle of wine in the fridge. The apartment feels calm and stylish, is spacious and cozy with lovely corners to sit in, was so comfortable and had everything we needed and a place for everything The patio area was delightful to be in and look out on. The location was perfect with shops and restaurants nearby, lovely tree-lined streets to walk in and close to all the places we wanted to go to and people we wanted to see. Deborah was a charming host, gave us all the information we needed, was responsive and the check in and check out were flawless. We will make this our home again on our visits to Houston. Thank you Deborah.

Cozy and beautiful
1920s home is beautiful and comfortable for two couples. Snacks upon arrival! Every morning I sat in the backyard by the koi pond and meditated. The neighborhood is close to yummy restaurants and unique boutiques. Most things were a 10 to 20 min walk away. It was the perfect place for us!

Wonderful Stay!
Our stay was nothing but WONDERFUL! The communication with Deborah was great! The unit had everything we needed and was SO clean even for the pickiest of guests! Beds were very comfortable, extra blankets and a lot of towels. Location worked well for us, close to restaurants and about 10 minutes from MD Anderson. Don't pass this one up, we would book again!
