The hotel is conveniently located right off highway I-45, making it easy to access. The rooms, although taking some time to cool down, were clean and offered decent value. The friendly service added to a pleasant stay, despite some ID issues. The dining options were basic but consistent. The lack of a security guard is a concern, but the proximity to downtown Houston is a plus.

The rooms, while having a single window facing the freeway, were pretty clean and eventually reached a comfortable temperature for sleep. They offer decent value for the price.

The dining options provided were basic and repetitive, with watered-down batter and generic cereals. It lacked fresh products, but the availability of some healthy snacks was a minor positive.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. While the location was pretty convenient and close to the city center, the lack of security presence was a concern. The service had its ups and downs, with some fantastic staff but a cumbersome check-in process that took far too long. The room cleanliness was a bit of a hit and miss, with some areas exceeding my expectations but others falling short due to stains and lack of thorough cleaning. The dining experience offered some variety but could have been improved with fresher options. Overall, the value for money was acceptable, considering the facilities available.

The room had a single window looking out onto the courtyard of a gas station next door. It was pretty clean but had noticeable stains on the sheets and hair on the bathroom floor.

The service had its ups and downs, with some excellent staff members who accommodated requests, but the check-in process was awful and took 45 minutes. Unfortunately, they would not accept our Australian passports as identification without us going into the building.

The dining offered the same options every day, including a waffle maker with watered-down batter, two generic cereals, Sunny Delight, Milk, and Coffee. More variety and fresher choices would have been appreciated.
Facilities
The facilities were standard without any standout features. The lack of security presence and the somewhat disappointing dining options could be improved for a better experience.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms took quite a while to cool down to a comfortable temperature, and they were not as clean as I would have liked. However, the staff was helpful and professional, making the service stand out. The location was convenient right off the highway, although it lacked a security guard. The dining options were repetitive, and the facilities were average.

My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were clean and tidy every day, though it took a bit of time for the temperature to be just right for sleeping. The staff was very helpful and professional, always working to meet my requests. The location, while close to downtown, had some noise and security concerns. The dining options were basic, starting a bit late for early risers, but the service was friendly and accommodating. On the downside, there were some strange smells upon entering the hotel.

The hotel should consider getting a security guard to watch the premises. This would enhance the sense of security for guests.
