Excellent and quaint
Loved this little bungalow find. We are actually staying there again this month for our next MD Anderson appointments. Very clean and in order, comfortable bed, all the kitchen amenities you need, washer and dryer and a large fridge. Definitely recommend.

La Casita review
Overall the place was nice and comfortable and clean. My only suggestion would be to make sure the Air conditioner is clean. It smelled kinda musty moldy when it was working. Loved the Southwestern decor.

Cute
Cute little back house. Have to haul your stuff from car down long driveway. Only parking on street. Not handicap access. Couch pullout mattress is really thin, not usable. Big bed in bedroom was so cozy. Kitchen had everything you needed. Even a little Keurig. Which I wish I would have know, I wouldn't have brought mine. Anyway, cute as pie. We would definately stay again.

Casita perfection
This property is quiet, tucked behind a home in a beautiful neighborhood. Cozy and creative decorating with personal touches (dog art!) and close to amazing plant stores & food. Many of the residents walking dogs greet you kindly. Will stay here again!!!

Beautiful Neighborhood
Cute little casita that definitely covered the basics. Great communication with the owner, Janet. The two window/wall AC units worked great but we had to open the door and windows to get rid of the musty smell when we arrived. Full kitchen with pantry basics but oddly, only one coffee mug and no coffee. There are several markets and restaurant within easy walking distance. (Don’t miss The Pit Room.) Enjoyed drinking our morning coffee at the outdoor table. At this very reasonable price, if you’re not expecting luxury, you’ll enjoy your stay.

we have stayed at the casita before
Especially if you are spending time in the Montrose neighborhood this is a reliable choice. It isn't difficult to find street parking, the neighborhood is close to many interesting shops and restaurants and the fact that there is an HEB within walking distance makes self-catering easy.
