Lisa was really sweet, and helped us out a lot . Place was semi clean, we did find two live roaches. Parking was okay , sometimes we had to park pretty far from our actual building which was a little inconvenient since I had a surgery. Breakfast was included but it was really just omelettes, fruit and granola daily. Would have liked some range considering how long most people stay. The people we shared a building with were extremely loud and were always burning food stinking up our entire bedroom… but other than that it was decent for what we needed.

It was better than I expected and had lots of space, comfort, pleasant staff, in a quiet neighborhood, and let me check in late. No need to go back to a hotel in this area ever again.

Quirky, beautiful architecture with great common spaces. Lots of stairs, which might be a problem for people with mobility problems.
The hosts were fabulous, the breakfasts were good.
We plan on returning when we are in Houston.

The staff was very friendly and kind. I enjoyed the large space. The building and amenities are old but fully functional. TV downstairs remote was missing so I couldn’t watch A TV downstairs but the TV in my bedroom worked great. The neighborhood is delightful and charming. Breakfast table was set and done with care. Overall it’s a great place.
