On a recent visit to Houston to visit my brother we stayed at Sara's Bed and Breakfast on the boulevard. This is the 2nd time we have stayed at Saras, last year my brother gave us a 25th wedding gift ...it was a 3 night stay at Sara's Bed and Breakfast.
I wish I had know about this website then, I would have posted a comment then .
Driving up to Sara's you see this beautiful Victorian home with a great welcoming front porch with comfortable seats and tables. The first time we stayed there as we drove up, there was a woman working in the beautiful rose and flower gardens that decorate the front yard, the woman turned out to be Connie the owner of the inn! After introducing ourselves Connie gave us a tour of the beautiful inn. The are 12 different decorated rooms to stay in....you choose your style of room! Last time we stayed in the Granbury suite, it was elegant, and romantic! This time we stayed in the Fort Worth room......decorated in a western style theme , it was a great room, it was fun and very cozy. The virtual tour you can take of each room on their website is a great idea!.. Both times we stayed on the 2nd floor. My parents were with us this time and they stayed on the first floor in the Dallas Room. They absolutely loved Sara's. This room was perfect for them as my dad could soak in the deep bath tub after a day of walking around Houston! Each room has a TV and anything you would need to make your stay comfortable. They even have wireless computer service. The inn owners Connie and Bob are a wonderful ,warm, caring, friendly couple. If you need anything they are only a minute away! You can come and go as you please at the inn, it is very lay back and comfortable. It is a great area to take a morning walk which my parents did each morning! Sara's is located near many great restaurants and shops and not far from the city if you want to go to see the sites or take in a ball game. When we came back to Sara's at the end of the day we would go into the eating /dining room and play cards or dominos while having a cup of coffee and a brownnie !(there is always a plate of brownies out if you get hungry for a snack!)
The breakfast is fantasitc, the dining area is a bright ,beautiful, elegant, yet warm and welcoming room. Each weekday and weekend morning we walked into the dining area to find a beautifully set up breakfast buffet awaiting us! during the week you can choose your choice of beverage, fresh fruit , sweet rolls, muffins, bagels, cereal , hard bolied eggs plus fresh waffles that you can make when you are ready for one. . On the weekends they have a great cook that comes in! She is a lovely friendly woman whom takes pride in her cooking! She makes a great quiche, a egg/ meat cheese dish, and of course biscuts and gravey as well as all the items they have during the week....everything is not only delicious but hot and you help yourself to what ever you want! it is great!
We have found our home away from home at Sara's Bed and Breakfast on the Boulevard when we visit houston!
