Updated, clean, cozy guest apartment near U of H

Welcome to Bayou Serenity Apartment, a tranquil one-bedroom guest house nestled in the vibrant Second Ward of Houston, Texas. Step into a serene retreat where the sights and sounds of peace meet modern comfort and convenience. Tucked away from the city's hustle and bustle in a quaint working class neighborhood, Bayou Serenity offers a peaceful escape with easy access to nearby I-45, public transport depot, University of Houston, and downtown Houston.

Entering the front yard from the quaint street, and pass around the back of the house, you are greeted with a welcoming yard with a path that takes you around to the entrance of the upper level apartment. During the day, this space is bathed in natural light and there is a convenient keypad entry for seamless access.

**Dining Area:**
The dining area offers a cozy spot to enjoy intimate meals.

**Bedroom:**
Retreat to the bedroom, where a plush king-size bed awaits, adorned with soft linens and surrounded by blackout curtains for a restful night's sleep. The windows face the backyard and brings in a lot of natural light if that is preferred. And the blackout roller shades combined with the blackout curtains can transform the room into a cozy and dark place for those who need to sleep during the day, perfect for night shift workers.
Bayou Serenity is designed for one to two adults, and one child is able to accompany them. The bedroom includes a comfortable kid bed, and a small sofa in the living room could accommodate a small child. Infants needing a pack'n'play are welcome, just notify your host that you need one.
