Ok for a quick trip
Construction going on outside but didn’t hear any noise. Hotel was ok. Only thing that would have been useful would have been a desk and work chair.

Great stay
Great price. Bed was comfortable and room was clean. Walking distance to NRG Stadium. Minutes away from the medical center. Only thing there was no hangers to hang up closed but I didn’t ask for any either.

The first room we were put in had an old smell and it had an adjoining door (which I do not like unless I request it) and the Tv only had 1 channel, I voiced my concerns and they moved us to a much nicer room, very friendly and helpful staff, I would go back

Room was definitely not as expected. Had musty smell. Dirty surfaces, no hangers, toilet seat was broken, rug in bathroom was falling apart, no holder for toilet paper, no hooks anywhere in the room to hang towels, coat, purse etc. microwave in room broken. Overall very disappointed. Will never recommend.

Easy check in. Property under renovation so a little out of wack. However, no real issues of property or staff. 1 improvement recommendation, need small shelf in shower to hold soap, etc

Not good
The lobby was fine, but when we got to the room, there was still makeup and hair on our pillows! They didn’t even clean the room. Terrible.. we had to ask for new sheets and change them ourselves.
