Superior host! Perfect graduation weekend!
What a wonderful multigenerational family weekend we had at the Glass Haus for the college graduation of our son, and I give full credit to our host Ann. Ann was an excellent communicator from the moment I booked the property to the complete end of our stay. Ann made the rental experience fun and positive! She was kind enough to answer all of my questions- by text and also during a phone call. Her sweet welcoming gift was very much appreciated as well! The property itself is gorgeous. It looks exactly like the photos, and it is stocked with everything we needed to make this a special relaxed weekend. We cooked a full breakfast each morning. We appreciated the coffee maker AND the Nespresso machine! All the dishes and cookware were in great shape and covered all our needs. The kitchen is awesome! We had a large group, so ALL the beds were used-including the extra bed on the fourth floor. Everyone had a wonderful night of sleep! The beds and bedding were so comfortable. The property is in a quiet location, and it is well-built. The walls are separated from the properties on either side, so you don’t hear noise from other close by residents. All bedrooms and bathrooms were well-outfitted and the lighting was wonderful throughout the house. We loved our stay and enjoyed this home so much! Thank you to Ann for allowing us to have a stress free graduation weekend. We highly recommend this property!

EXCELLENT ALL AROUND
Beautiful home, represented very accurately based on listing. Super clean, very well appointed and equipped. Check-in was a breeze, communication was excellent, great location. Quick 15-20 min drive to MD Anderson. I was in town for 5 nights for medial appointments and the worry about my stay was an added stress. But not with this home, it was a sanctuary. We were a multi generational family and we were all very happy and comfortable. The elevator was a huge benefit. Kitchen had more than enough basics, esp with the nespresso coffee bar and a regular coffee maker, wth filters supplied! (Yes, it matters.) We don't wear shoes in our homes and I can report that this house is very clean. Ann is a fabulous, thoughtful host, going out of her way to accommodate with special gifts, snacks and my schedule. The only potential negative I can state about this house is its proximity to all great restaurants!!! Walking distance to Hugo's (Sunday brunch) Common Bond (best pistacchio croissants) and other eateries. Very centrally located. This was not my first home rental in Houston but it was by far the best. I would definitely rebook. Thank you Ann!!

From beginning to end Ann was a dream to work with. Upon our arrival the home exceeded every expectation my family and I had as seasoned travelers. This will be my family’s home away from home when in Houston! Thank you Ann!

Awesome experience
Our stay at the Glass Haus was everything I'd hoped it would be. The pictures didn't do it justice compared to seeing it in person. Ann was nothing short of communicative, kind, responsive, and flexible. The house was in an ideal location and provided all the necessities for our trip. We can't wait to go back for future stays in Houston!

Great stay, Amazing host
The house is gorgeous, luxurious, clean, and close to everything that wanted/needed to go; shopping, restaurants, the hospital, and downtown. But I think more importantly was that our host Ann was amazing and went above & beyond to help us. At one point on our vacation we got stuck in a situation that she went out of her way to help us with, which actually she did numerous times. When she says that she is there 24/7 she really means it. And I am honestly going to her…and the house. She helped make The Houston experience better.

Everything we imagined
This property is everything it advertises to be. Ann, the host is the best, not overbearing but always on time for any issues you may have. And let me clarify we didn’t have any issues, just a mix up. Ann was very prompt with her response and the non issue was resolved. This home is amazing, so comfortable we didn’t want to leave. The mattresses in the 3 main bedrooms will have you stuck… in a very good way!

Wedding Event
We had the most dreamy gathering place for my son's wedding and everything went perfectly! The home was exceptional with everything we needed as well as conveniently located for checking out the area. We especially loved the coziness of the gathering area as well as the luxury feel of the whole house. The elevator functioned well for those who had trouble with stairs and for transporting luggage up and down. We loved it! I am so happy we found this great find for such a memorable occasion.
