    Only 3 weeks old. Such a great collection. Architecture and outside of the building are amazing.

    I celebrated my birthday here with five close friends, and it was such an amazing experience. From…read morethe moment we arrived, the staff were professional and very accommodating. The owner kept everything running smoothly and on schedule, never made us feel rushed which allowed us to relax and enjoy ourselves. We were greeted with champagne and a charcuterie board, which was really nice. We had massages, facials, and foot detoxes, and every single service was exceptional. The staff treated us like queens and made sure we were comfortable and taken care of the entire time. The spa itself is beautiful and was the perfect size, which made it very intimate and private. One of my favorite parts was that the entire spa was closed to the public and reserved just for our group. That alone made the experience feel extra special and personal. If you're looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion or just want a luxurious, private spa day, I highly recommend Camellia Alise. I would absolutely go back!

    This was my first-ever full spa day, and wow--what an experience! Everyone was so warm and…read morewelcoming, and the vibe was pure calm and serenity--like stepping into another world. Mignon worked magic as my massage therapist, and Jayla gave me the most amazing facial. They were both so kind, attentive, and absolutely fantastic at what they do. My whole body feels rejuvenated and so good--I haven't felt like this in ages. I'm already planning my next visit!

The ramp is in the back and you will need a staff member for assistant to use it. At least the restroom have grab bar, it is an old house, some part of the floor is not evenly flat, so watch your step if you have balance issue. The staff here are very helpful. They have a very limited parking on site so most likely you have to park on the street near by but you have to watch out where you park as some part of the street is no parking allowed.

My teacher, Cecilia, is fantastic! She is very knowledgeable and understands the difficulties English speakers have. Also she knows where each student is at and asks questions designed to allow us to practice what we know and learn some new vocabulary. She is very good at understanding what we want to say and helping us say it in French. I have heard from other students that the other teachers are the same. The immersion method used is a little tough at first, but you get used to it and it is really effective. Also the other students in my class are great. We always have fun in class and the time flies. The class prices are reasonable, actually a good deal for such small groups. After having taken classes here, I don't think I will ever go back to a college or university for lessons. If you want to learn French, I definitely recommend the Alliance Francaise!

    I'm a beginner writer. Finding Writespace was a blessing. Not only am I getting the help that I…read moreneed, I'm getting personal attention. Highly recommend for any writer at any stage.

    Writespace has become a wonderful resource for me as a writer, and I love watching it grow…read more Probably my favorite thing about Writespace is that it seeks to cater to more specific needs of Houston area writers. For example, there are classes that are geared toward specific genres such as horror, YA lit, etc. There are classes that focus on style, polishing your manuscript, finding an agent, etc. It's nice to take a class with a more specific focus (rather than something more general where it can be frustrating to get feedback from classmates who have no interest in your genre). The instructors have been great, and they are experienced writers who really know their stuff about the various aspects of writing and publishing (in part because many of them are published). Also, as a teacher with a very hectic schedule and living a bit outside of city limits, weekly classes in person aren't always ideal for me, but Writespace offers online courses as well as weekend courses to round out their weekly classes. I've been to several of the weekend classes, and they've all been top notch! I like that with my busy schedule, a weekend course is an easy commitment, and at the prices the classes are currently, I really feel I'm getting my money's worth and then some (a huge deal on a teacher salary!). I also tried out an online course (first time to ever try one since they were a very new thing when I was still in college and not offered for my area of study), and I was very pleased with the quality of the class. I would definitely recommend giving Writespace a try, particularly if you are a writer who is a) seeking high quality instruction and b) focused in a more specific are of fiction (such as horror, mystery, YA lit, etc).

    Full disclosure, my child has been interviewing here.

A certain snotty school pretty much passed on us because of my child's needs and I was forced to accept that we might need a "special" school. Sad and nervous, I set up an appointment for a parent tour the next day. Whether we get in or not, I can honestly give them five stars for the work they are doing. Where we've never felt like we fit in, there was a school where we could. This school is K-8 and just off of Montrose at Chelsea. Their goal appears to be to give children the ability to learn and develop skills in a safe environment with the intention of getting the kids back mainstreamed. It was crystal clear immediately that these people have the best intentions and the knowledge to fulfill those intentions well. This place is not cheap by any stretch of the imagination, but it is clear where the tuition goes. The ratio of teachers to kids is incredibly low and the children and staff alike seem happy. Ah, I forgot what that looked like. Best of all, the school was filled with kids just like mine. He was very relieved to finally be in the class and not stick out like a sore thumb. I don't know whether we'll be here in the fall, but I would highly recommend Joy to any parent whose child's needs aren't being met in a classroom setting due to ADHD, Tourettes, Autimism or the like. Check it out and cross your fingers
