The Flying Pig - Downtown Glam Hideaway

This gorgeous east downtown (EaDo) luxury townhome is located in the epicenter of downtown activity and is just blocks from Discovery Green, Minute Maid Park, The Toyota Center, BBVA Stadium, 8th Wonder Brewery, the GRB Convention Center and the thriving EaDo bar and restaurant scene. Boasting a rooftop deck with a bar, hot tub, fire pit and grill, our glam hideaway will show you the true meaning of our flying pig theme - that anything is possible if you can dream it up. The city is yours!

Our home is filled with modern styling, amenities and features. When you're not out and enjoying the neighborhood, you'll be entertained by one of the 7 televisions in the home, including three in the living room and an outdoor rooftop TV (currently being installed, ready soon). Each room has a unique style with features that will make you want to pull out that phone and take photos. When you need a moment of peace, kick back in our 4th floor Zen Den that's hidden behind a bookshelf. From top to bottom, we built our home to impress and provide our guests with a great experience during your stay.

Parking is available in our attached 2 car garage behind the home, which is accessible through the private entry gate into our community. Additional parking is available on the street on a first come, first served basis. See "Getting Around" in the "Where You'll Be" section for more information on getting around the neighborhood.

Convenient to Downtown
We wanted to be in walking distance of the convention center, and this location was perfect. We found a great restaurant for breakfast (Leeland House) and went there every day. We also got pastries from Koffeteria which were astounding. The property was clean, and mostly as promised. I had read another review that gave me a clue as to how to open the gate to bring the car in; otherwise we would have been lost. We lost internet the first night and reached out to the owner, but never heard anything. It would have been nice to have dishtowels and hot pads in the kitchen and blow dryers in every bathroom, but we made it work. If you want a lively nightlife, this is for you. Many bars and beer gardens in the neighborhood. Overall experience was good.

Great apartment that needs love
Place is clean but kitchen needs more ustensiles plates, glass wines essentials. Run down patio furniture. No water in one of the bathroom sink. Confortable and location close to convention center but would need love!

Hide-a-way GEM
The "Flying Pig"...lol... was genuinely amazing! The location was even better. Everything we did was within walking distance, and parking was plentiful. I even met the owner of the bar across the street. When he realized we were Veterans, he treated us like royalty. Every level of the house surprised us, and each was just as enjoyable as the next level. The rooftop gave us a view and great conversation. However, we could not use the stove, and the master bedroom TV was never turned on. Plus there was a lot of dust underneath the furniture etc. But I would stay again and recommend it over and over again! As they say, "when pigs fly"...but you don't have to wait to have a great time.

Flying pig 9/6/24-9/9/24
The place was not far from a lot of bars and the places we did go were short Uber rides away . The house is as pictured . Only complaint is cleanliness , 3 roaches were spotted . The hot tub was filthy and one of the beds did not have clean sheets . The floors were dusty and it just felt like it hadn’t been cleaned before our stay. Would book again if properly cleaned and exterminator for roaches.

Great Place, Great Location
Really enjoyed our stay. Location to Minute Maid park is ideal. The place is really nice! 4 Levels, plenty of stairs. The front gate was difficult to open. Plenty of TV’s….need an IT person to figure them out. Couldn’t figure out oven too. Overall really nice place. 3 Full Baths and 2 half baths.

Worked well for 3 of us to stay here vs hotel which were very expensive. Short walk to convention center which was great. Very nice condo, but general area around it was not upscale if that’s what you’re looking for.

Nice dusty house
Overall the house was nice and had what needed. However, the trash was overflowing outside, so we could not take out the trash. There is a fan in the living room, but we could not find the remote. The place could use a deep cleaning as there are chandeliers that have a lot of dust on them. The beds were not very comfortable. And the communication with the owner and the property manager were non existent. I messaged and called and never got any response from either. They could definitely do a better job moving forward for the amount of money you pay for they rentals.

Cool place but could use a few updates and changes
Overall, my girlfriends and I had a great time at this house. Here are the details: Location: The location of the house was great - right in the center of town, close to everything. Parking, though, was rough. The house is on a busy street near downtown bars and Minute Maid stadium, so it was hard to find consistent parking. There was a garage, but it was tight and cluttered. House: The house is huge with many upgrades (in particular kitchen appliances and bathroom sinks/showers). Upon first glance, it’s super cute, modern, and spacious, with a bathroom in every bedroom (major plus) - perfect for 7 adult women. There are four floors and a million stairs (which we didn’t fully expect). However, the house definitely looks highly used and it could use a DEEP cleaning and some updates. There were lots of scuffs and scrapes and hand prints on the walls, tiles coming up in the showers, cobwebs under the stairs, the cabinets on the fourth floor where the games are kept were FILTHY, the lights on the patio lights didn’t work, and the wood floors needed cleaning. The coffee maker had a filter in it that looked like it had been there for years, which indicates the cleaners really just do a surface job. The sofa and chairs need to be cleaned as well since they are upholstered pieces. The gate in front of the house was unreliable - sometimes it opened, sometimes it didn’t. On surface, it’s a really nice house, but as you get settled, it’s easy to see it needs some work done, especially if they will continue to put a premium price on it. Host: We never heard from the host, which was not a necessarily problem because we didn’t have any issues. However, I am accustomed to at least receiving a greeting message upon arrival with reminders/helpful tips and a “thank you” when it’s time to leave. We never heard from the host at all, but the details included were sufficient enough for what we needed. One thing: there’s doorbell-like button on the side of the main gate that is not particularly noticeable but required to open the gate to pull in a vehicle. I had just happened to see someone push that button when I arrived, but I had to show other guests in another vacation home on the property where the button was because they could not figure out how to get their cars onto the property. This would have been helpful info Overall, we had a good time. Would we stay again? Probably, but only if it’s cleaned properly and freshly painted.

The property is a short walk from Minute Maid park and next to some great breweries, bars and restaurants. If you want to catch a game and see what EaDo has to offer this is a great choice.
