10/10 Excellent

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
This property is very close to family members living in Houston and was exactly what I needed for my stay. It was clean, easily accessible, priced right, and perfect for me as I spent most of my time visiting with family and just needed a place to sleep. With a private entrance, good sized main room, bathroom, closet to hang my clothes, fridge, big flatscreen TV, microwave, desk and comfortable bed I would definitely stay here again.

We didn't ever see the host until I saw her getting in a car about two days before we were leaving. I told her we enjoyed the location and gave her dates of our next trip and she checked her schedule and we will be staying there again.I seem to have left my Curling Iron under the sink in the bathroom and would appreciate her keeping it for me until I return.
