BED BUGS. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
Reported this to management, took pictures, and was charged for a full stay even after I asking to cancel immediately. Do not stay here.

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.

Liked: Cleanliness
Great spot. Friendly people. The only downside is that they are doing renovations but, besides that, awesome people and a very nice location if you have a car or can uber.
This hotel is definitely different. First of all it’s being remodeled at least from the outside. I heard some members complain about nails on floor. We didn’t drive but just be cautious with your tires. Honestly the hotel room wasn’t my vibe but it could be yours. My room looked outdated and carpet looked funky. We’re going to Md Anderson and reason I booked was because of the rate. Honestly if I were to be back it would be because of the rate & customer service only.

Solo trip for medical appointment. Water temp in shower never reached anything I would say was hot - but sink did. Will alert mgmt in the morning. Property undergoing Reno at the moment and so e upgrades in the rooms are less than desirable - no tp holder, nowhere to put your soap or shampoo in the shower, etc.
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.
