The house was in excellent condition, matching the description and pictures from the listing. The house was very spacious with a large open area for the living room, dining room, kitchen, and backyard. The area within the parking gate provided ample space for my guests with two cars. We appreciated the amenities including the washer, dryer, iron and ironing board, dishwashing pods, and towels. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were a perfect size.
However, there are a few improvements that would make this house even better. Accessing the lockbox for the house key was a challenge. We ended up calling the host, who answered immediately, to figure out how to open the lockbox. It took us about 2 to 4 minutes to get the key out of the lockbox and figure out how to open the door. The kitchen had almost everything we needed, except for a dishwasher scrubber. Not really a problem since dishwashing pods were provided. But, this would be a nice thing to have when washing smaller dishes quickly.
Overall, we had a great experience staying at the house and would highly recommend it to someone visiting Houston, TX. The location is central for downtown Houston, close to the Galleria Mall, and many other areas of attraction. It was a great experience renting from The VRBO host Erica. She made sure that all my questions were answered prior to and during my stay at the house. Thank you very much! Do not think twice about renting this house for your future trip to Houston, TX.
