Will never return!!!
We arrived at the hotel to find that the property was under construction that I was unaware of . There was no shuttle bus as listed . The room had a very weird smell in the beds headboard and foot boards are covered in stains. The headboards aren’t even attached to anything so the headboard was leaning on the bed . We ordered pizza and someone stole my order as the front desk lady knew who had my pizza because she watched the lady take it . There was loud music playing in the hall way and one lady dance with very little clothes on .

Could be great
This property shows a bit of wear and tear that makes it feel a little grimy in places. They are working on it and it is apparent that at one time it was quite swanky. The location is great for attending events at any of the Houston stadiums so that’s a big plus and they have free parking.

The decor was interesting however the cleanliness needs to be improved. The bathroom tub had a draining problem and the linens and floors needed to be cleaned. I will not stay there again due to the lack of sanitary attention

Not noisy unless you’re by louder people or they’re in the halls. Breakfast was awful. Desk girls working were nice, the breakfast attendants however stared us down heavily while trying to make our plates. I asked if I could help, she says no and proceeds to stare.

Love this place!
They have always been so kind and the facility is always clean (and still is). I had to ask for towels and wash cloths the last couple of visits, which I found odd. But they didn’t question it and apologized. I will still return for my visits. Always clean, beds are so comfortable, room is spacious. Area is safe and easy access to medical center and eating places
