“Beautiful, nice located B&B”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 March 2011
1
person found this review helpful

This is a beautiful, 1920's home that has been made into a nice Bed and Breakfast. Here's my thoughts: the good - very quiet, great location within walking distance to many great restaurants, right in the middle of the wonderfully gay Montrose district, great dog greets you in the lobby, room was clean and furnished with period pieces and antiques, laptop for use in the library, dining room was 24 hour as needed with self serve cereals, coffee, fruit, etc. Other considerations - the Inn Keeper is a nice, helpful guy, but on the quiet side. So if you're used to an engaging and inquisitive type B&B host, this one will be different. No hot breakfasts. . but this wasn't an issue for me as I like cereals, bagels and the like. Overall I like this place and would recommend it.

“A little disappointing...”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 February 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed in the townhouse apartment around the corner from the main house; it had a badly stained carpet, no towels or paper towels in the kitchenette; the heater in the Jacuzzi by the pool did not work so we could not use it as the night was cool. The breakfast was adequate, the manager courteous, but for the price, we expected a bit more.

“Great location and value”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 October 2010

This was my second stay at the Lovett Inn and it again proved to be a value with a great location in Houston. The Inn itself is a lovely house set in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood that is close by to the city's attractions(bars, restuarants, movie theaters, etc) via car yet it remains quiet enough at night to get a good night's sleep. The staff is very professional and friendly and the dog Cody adds a warm touch to the place.
