House was great, check in great, house looks like the pictures. The house I upgraded well. I was a little concerned when we pulled up to the home because I hadn’t seen a pic of the front of the home. Never judge a book by its cover- house was really nice and spacious. The one thing we noticed is there weren’t a lot of dishes in the home, so we couldn’t cook some of our food as planned. Overall, we would stay again.
Property was great and clean but I have a hell of a time contacting property host. Host didn’t send me a code for the key. 30 mins after check in time that’s when the host called me back.
Great location next to all of the places my family loves to visit within the Asian community. The home owners were very responsive with all questions. We all loved the pool and will definitely be back again.
My family loved this home! There where a few slight issues with minimal things but nothing of major concern. The oven only preheats to 325 degrees. And the ac in the kitchen dining area feels non existent. The master bathroom door does not close or lock. But the pool and outdoor areas are amazing ! The garage has a pool table and alot of card games. Its such a beautiful spacious home! Definitely recommend 👌
We had a great time here. Everything is close by. Condo was clean, beds were comfortable and there is plenty of room. Pool was nice too. Owner is easy to contact and answers quickly. We'll stay again! Only downside was red tide at the beach.....
We picked this house due to its location. The location is near a lot of asian restaurants and shops. I will provide the pros and cons of what we think about the property.
PROS:
We used to visit Houston a lot and this house is literally 5 - 10 minutes to Vietnamese and China town. The neighborhood is quiet. Now the inside, the kitchen is well stocked. All equipments are new. The host provided us with abundance of snack. All toiletries were stocked as well and laundry detergent.
CONS:
All these could be because the house were recently remodeled and looks like there still some checklist yet to be completed. So hopefully this doesn’t deter any future rental away.
The only area that seemed to be well constructed is the kitchen. The master bedroom could use some blinds on the door that leads to pool. So, staying there is a bit scary, because you get no privacy and the neighbors can see through the door. The doors to the master bath is two closet door put together that have a cap in the middle, no locks, therefore you have to lock the room door if you want to use the bathroom. We didn’t dare to touch a lot of the closet doors or cabinet drawers throughout the house, because it was flimsy and we were afraid it could break. Plus they were painted over so made it harder to pull open. For the drawers that we opened it is dirty inside with construction debris. The passage way between the living room and hallway, where the door used to be, the hinge cutouts need to be sand down/smooth out because our 3 y.o. almost got cut and get a splinter.
Overall, great attentive host, but house quality does not represent the pictures posted.
