Stayed 2 nights at Sweet Home Alabama and it was a perfect size for 2 adults and 2 kids or even 4 adults as there are 2 bedrooms and 2 baths. Pictures are accurate for the home and it had all the amenities that were stated in the home description. Location is 7 minutes from Childrens Museum and Hermann Park. We had an issue with the auto door lock when trying to enter the home but they answered our call immediately and we had it worked out. Comunication was very good and they had a solution right away. I appreciated the fact that they took our security very seriously. I would definitely recommend this home. We will return to Houston and hope to stay here again.
Overall,we had an excellent experience here. I really liked the fact that the property has gated,on site parking,and it felt very safe and secure. The home is nicely decorated and the beds are very comfortable. There are plenty of household goods provided if you were planning on staying a while. I would definitely recommend staying here!
The house was cute, on a Friday night there was music from a nearby club that sounded like it was in the backyard. Other than that and the location it was just what we needed.
The property was overall clean, and we had no issues. We had fast reply from property manager of the parking situation. This property has a second house next to it, which is on the same premises but separate back yards; however, the issue we run into was the other renter block the entrance to inside the gate parking area. We parked every night on the street which was fine. We went there for medical reasons and multiple hospitals are near by. We would stay there again.

Just okay!
The property is exactly how it was described. Overall it was an okay stay. We had issues with getting into the property but the property management team guided us through the process of accessing the key because the key pad didn't work. It was a bit of an annoyance having to lock and unlock the gate to enter and leave the property. The mattress pad in the second bedroom was grossly filthy and had multiple stains, we notified the property management team about it and they said they would address. It wasn't addressed during our stay, we just pulled it off the bed and threw it in the closet. Overall the stay was just okay. Night club music down the street, we didn't mind it actually enjoyed hearing it and dancing to the music.
The house was gorgeous the only downside was In the morning the workers were very noisy which startled me because I had no idea anyone else would be on the premises but overall I loved the house and would definitely book again!
