Thank you so much Sidney for the opportunity to stay at your lovely home! You are such a kind host and had a beautiful home with all the amenities for our Rice graduation celebration weekend. With ages 22-80 our family did really well. And thank you for your kindness in letting us have a late chrckout too!

The home was generally clean and we were provided with plenty of towels and toiletries. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to stay for the week. The owner who lives on-site in garage apartment was friendly. However, the home had many plug in air fresheners so there was a very strong air freshener smell even when we unplugged the air fresheners. If you are at all sensitive to fragrances this is not the house for you! Even after leaving the home all of our clothes and luggage needed to be washed or aired out to remove the fragrance smell. There was also critters living in the attic. We saw a possum daily on the fence or window sills of the home and a racoon on the last day. Not sure which is living inside the house but would hear it moving around at night. We told the owner and he was not concerned and even mentioned how other guests love the possum.

Came to Houston for Christmas to spend time with our son who attends Rice University. Easy walking distance to Rice University. Nice neighborhood. Wonderful cozy backyard. Many windows and light. Well stocked kitchen. We had a wonderful Christmas. Thank You!

We came to Houston for a medical procedure. I was accompanied by my husband, sister, and adult daughter. We had enough space to spread out and be comfortable, but also come together and make some meals. The home is well equipped for cooking but close enough to restaurants for eating out. We enjoyed watching movies, relaxing, and sitting outside in the backyard area. The host has constructed a beautiful plant wall like I’ve never seen before. Perfect for quiet meditation moments.

We had lived and worked in the neighborhood for many years so accepted the substantial owner's fee as necessary for a nice house in a good location. Our actual experience was very disappointing. Ease of access to the one off-street parking space was made difficult by an apparently underivable car permanently parked, hood up, and loaded with junk occupying much of the narrow driveway. The access gate with key-pad appeared ordinary but the actual locking mechanism was unnecessarily complex. Pictures and initial impression of the interior were of a nicely designed and decorated house, but when we actually made use of the facilities we encountered a repetition of unnecessary complexity and/or poor quality. Examples are: a large pile of blankets and linens heaped upon the sofa on the upstairs landing-not in our way but why were they there? Digital thermostats with no instructions how to operate that had been left in system-off mode despite our scheduled arrival and a cold winter storm. There was also a very nice TV that looked great hanging on the wall, but try to figure out how to access desired programing without instructions and once figured out proved to be the cheapest selection of programing we had ever encountered. There were multiple types and locations of lights and switches, inside and out with dimmers and instruction about what we were expected to do but not how to do it. While we have encountered examples of these challenges previously, it was never all at once.
