Reviews

Ashlie R. Jun 26, 2025 11:32:00 PM
Summary: We had a fantastic stay and cannot say enough great things about this house! We have never been to Houston and were worried about staying in a bad area while we dropped our son off at a camp. A friend recommended that we stay in this area, right around Rice, and they were absolutely correct - the location is perfect. The house was in a beautiful, quiet, and walkable neighborhood. We could walk to restaurants and walk our dogs. The house had more than enough room, was spotless, and had plenty of towels, kitchen items, and other essentials. There was even a beautiful backyard area, and we sat out every morning to have coffee. We want to thank the host for such a great trip, and we will definitely stay here again when we return to Houston!
Irene Jun 14, 2025 10:19:01 AM
Summary: The house was very nice and comfortable. Our only issue was with the shower in the master bedroom. The water fluctuates between very hot and cold. We mentioned the problem to Sydney and he was aware of the issue. However, instead of fixing it he just said to turn it off and on, which did not help at all. As well, one of the windows in the master bedroom has no window covering which made it very difficult to sleep once the sun was out.
Jussi Apr 23, 2025 11:18:55 PM
Summary: We really enjoy the calm vibes at this Houston VRBO, and stay here regularly while in Houston. (We've also stayed at a few other places when this is unavailable, but this is definitely our favorite.).
Koby W. Dec 31, 2024 02:46:50 AM
Summary: We stayed here on a family trip to Houston to see all of the museums and the zoo. It was a great place to stay in a convenient location. Lots of great food options in the area as well. The sheets were soft and the home had everything we needed. The back patio was a nice spot to relax in the morning and evening.
maria b. Dec 24, 2024 05:37:29 AM
Summary: Good layout and well equipped kitchen. Nice garden but traffic noise from nearby major street and highway unfortunate. Otherwise, location is a dream.
Laurie M. Nov 13, 2024 01:19:13 AM
Summary: We loved the house and lush backyard. We were able to walk to restaurants and museums. Made our visit to Houston very enjoyable!
Margaret B. Sep 15, 2024 06:04:45 AM
Summary: It’s a really nice property. The owner lives in the front of the home. He wasn’t particularly welcoming to me when I arrived, extremely jet lagged. The air fresheners are also very strong and you can hear the owner coughing/hacking in the night time.
Melissa M. May 6, 2024 03:17:00 AM
Summary: 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!
Jan 30, 2024 02:20:54 AM
Summary: 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.
Amy D. Dec 31, 2023 10:34:57 AM
Summary: 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!
