Unfortunately we arrived very late to the property and were not able to get in that night (we had to stay at a hotel). Once we were able to connect with the property owner, things went much, much smoother. Travelling with my wife and son......which made the recovery from missing the first night difficult. Owner was responsive once we were able to connect and he did try to make things better. I personally enjoyed our stay, but the first night was difficult to overcome for my spouse.

My wife and I along with my son, daughter-in-law, and grandson stayed 4 nights at the Museum House. The facility was wonderful in every way that such a facility can be wonderful, and Hans was a gracious and attentive host. We all felt blessed to have found such a perfect place to reside while in town for the Final Four.

Our every need was anticipated.
Great location, beautiful home, super nice host, who anticipated our every need. From sodas and water bottles in the fridge to extra plug-ins at our bedside, and umbrellas near the door, Hans thought of everything! The location is beautifully located in the Houston Museum District, and Hans gave us great recommendations for walks, sites to see and restaurants. The only drawback for some may be the stairs to get into the home. They may be too steep and a few too many for some vacationers. We enjoyed our stay at Museum House and would stay there again!

Excellent location, great property
Excellent location, great property
The Museum House is so special. I came in for a long weekend with friends and we had such a nice time. There is a bedroom upstairs and downstairs with a main floor in the middle so there is privacy for all. Everything you need is at the property, including a nice pool but it was too cold out for a swim. The house looks exactly like the photos. We walked to museums, spent time in nearby Montrose, and tried the many wonderful restaurants nearby. I will stay here again next time I’m in town.

Hans had the home very well supplied and was a great host. The unit shares the pool and patio area with another unit so being mindful of your neighbors is a must. The location is a great part of Houston and we very much enjoyed our stay.
