This was a very nice hotel that was totally renovated, the bathroom was neet well finished and really nice towels (I'm a towels nerd), my only complaint would be there's no door to the bathroom so I shower late and the noise bothered my wife. I would definitely stay here again.

Clean , stunning , safe

It is absolutely clean and well-maintained like in Europe, it's not your ordinary American motel. But note, you can't have different guests, they are very strict about it.

If you want to stay comfy and on a budget in Houston without bed bugs and cockroaches don't look further, for sex fiestas it's better to look at other options.

Clean & Price is Right

Overnight…hotel and staff very nice and work hard to keep it such. The bed bowed in and not as comfortable but doable for the night…not thrilled by overall area but the place is clean , well lit and they have a privacy fence…very good for price and would most likely stay again…too good a deal to pass up

The hotel is pretty nice, comfy beds, spacious rooms, clean inside and out. However, the front desk staff are the most rude, disrespectful hospitality staff I've ever had to deal with. They are very callous and unsympathetic and have no issue lying to your face to get you to go away rather than actually bother to deal with a problem.

I’m OCD so it’s important for everything to look as well as actually be clean. The staff is always welcoming. I go won’t go anywhere else, no matter what extra perks are offered.

Great deal in Houston

The room was immaculately clean, and everything looked brand new. Even the outside of the building looked very recently painted. There was some traffic noise, but it was hardly noticeable with the air conditioner running. The bathroom area is large, and the bed was comfortable.

Bad service

Service was not great. The attendant was rude upon arrival, he had my reservation incorrect and he had an attitude about it?

We also asked for more sheets. He asked why we needed more sheets and said that if we needed them, we had to bring the old ones down to the front desk. This was 8pm and the cleaning staff were still out working. The hotel was clean but I would not stay again

Unhappy with the bed and no extra pillows

Bed was uncomfortable. Asked for more pillows and we were told there were plenty in the room. The building was very loud all night long. People going and coming all night long. We were told by a friend the next day that this motel is a rent by the hour type, used for sex and drugs. Not happy had to leave early and forfeit my money.

Excellent Room

The room was excellent!!! It was clean and recently remodeled. The people at the front desk were not very sociable at all!! Bare minimum for breakfast.
