“The cottage's Main Street location puts guests in the heart of the historic district, steps from shops, restaurants, and the Katy Trail. Inside, expect a very clean, welcoming space with an updated kitchen and comfortable furnishings. I note that while the neighborhood is generally quiet and safe, light-sensitive sleepers may want to bring a sleep mask.”
