nice but some glitches
Good parking. Nice and clean property. Well organized instructions for access. Spacious for 2 and nice floorpan. There are other rentals on site, which was not clear in information i saw but that was not a problem. the problem is in details and communication. Inside property on a table by sofa was a posted info sheet with phone # to call for a problem. The coffee service was set out but no carafe, text sent to the posted number and never had a response. Drawer in kitchen, not by the service that indicated Tea, had 2 loose tea bags lying in bottom of drawer. This is a nice and convenient property that has a higher price rate than several others. There needs to be better attention to the little details like that and also be more responsive and direct with information and communication when asked. Hopefully owner will get the details taken care of and this will assure a 5 star review from the next guest.

Home in the Heights!
Lovely property that suited my wife and I extremely well. It is in a good location in the Houston Heights and very convenient to numerous restaurants we enjoy visiting with the majority within easy walking distance. The host was responsive and provided detailed information about the property. Enjoyed our stay and will look here first when we return for our next visit to Houston.
