    The owner was very friendly. I was sad because I'd just dropped off my son for college. She upgraded me to a room with a bath and offered me dinner. She's a great host and made me feel very welcome. The bed was also phenomenally comfortable.

Lisa Thompson & Avidan Moss
My ex-husband, an award winning architect, designed the heart of the Modern. We built it together with our construction company. When the sale of the townhomes fell through (Enron) I opened one of them as a B&B and we expanded from there.
I'm a runner and president of the BCRR running club. I own/manage several businesses; real estate and property management as well as the bed & breakfast. I speak English, German and Spanish. I have a law degree. I love cats. I love to be busy.
All that you want to do in Houston is in Montrose. Eat at the great restaurants, go the the Museums, party at the bars, stay at the best hotels. The most walkable part of the city.
