Horrible. Reporting to health department

Absolutely the most unclean disgusting place I have ever stayed in. Woke up this morning with roaches in the bed and roaches in the bathroom crawling on the shower walls and coming out of the shower drain

This property is about 50 years old and no renovation has been done on it. The TV is still old Tube. The toilet flush is slow. Carpet is old. There was no sheet. Only a heavy quilt. The chair was of cloth and had hole in it. The location supposed to have WiFi but it is only a name on equipment setting. Technically no WiFi. The TV programs were very good and a Western channel had no commercials. The area looks unsafe, but I did not notice any unusual activity. There were no insect at all in the room and was very safe from this standpoint. Plenty of towels were available and the same with soap. Water was strong in pipes and shower was working very well. at a very close walking distance is a Chevron convenience store that complements lack of any essentials on the property such a cup of coffee in the morning.

I liked that it was fast and easy to get a room. The front desk lady is extremely rude and short with you. They rushed me out my room when it wasn’t even time to check out the house keeper kept barging in no knocking or anything. And they made me leave the property while I was waiting on my ride. The room was super dirty and the tv was broken and the front desk lady did nothing even when I told her.

NOT WORTH THE MONEY THEY CHARGE FOR THE ROOMS THEY ARE A RATS NEST!! This place is the worst place I've ever stayed and I've been to a few properties that I wouldn't recommend but this one I'm afraid that I may need to go get a tetanus shot from the wallpaper is being held up by tax there's nothing in the room other than a TV and your dresser that's falling apart how I pulled out one of the dresser drawers and found a whole bunch of baggies like there is no dealers in there and one of them was full of stuff so yeah that was very pleasant then the ice machine isn't convenient for you to get through it's in the lobby with the other people you have to wait for them to come open the door to let you into the lobby so you can get ice. The breakfast they offer is oatmeal in a little tupperware container, the butter has bread crumbs all in it and cereal that they don't even provide milk for. The water came out brown I was afraid to give it to my service animals and then the manager or whom ever he was, decided to tell me not to fill up my cooler w ice and he yelled at me about my service animals! I've never been treated the way I was here and I promise that this place is not worth 10 dollars much less the 50 they charge and that's only thru the app if you don't do it thru a booking app they want to charge 85 dollars a night. I'm sorry but I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone not even if I didn't like them and that says a whole lot about this place.

Great for the traveler on a budget!

My overall stay was decent. It is definitely an older facility and it could use upgrades but it was clean and comfortable. The front desk attendants for both the check in and check out were very friendly and accommodating. I found it to be great for the traveler on a budget. The location had access to multiple restaurants, dine in and fast food. The fact that it was minutes from the airport was an added bonus.

People nice. Big swimming pool. Convenient. Low rate. They need. Serious cleaning of bathtubs and bathrooms. As it is. In need of good refurbishing in many rooms.

Other than that. It is. Fine. Ordinary. Budget rate. Motel

They need to pay attention to details. Of little little things missing. Like no
Dial tone in room. They need better preventive maintenance.

Staff is nice. She carried. My heavy luggage to second floor. By stairs. At 11. Pm at night as I cannot.

Changed rooms. Without fuss.

Cleanliness. Needs to be stressed specially. Bath tubs toilets. And. Refresher in room. Swimming pool. Is clean and hot and large.

Worst Hotel EVER!!

Booked this Room Thru Hotels.com going by the pictures online.. We needed a place to stay to shower and get a few hours sleep. I got my Key from the office, turned on the Light in the room And Bugs started running everywhere and the smell was horrible! I felt dirty just touching the Door handle.. The Carpet had grass and dirt and stains all over it. I walked back to the office and turned my key in and got back in the car and found a Motel 6 a few miles down the road for $10 more. If you have to stay here bring a gun and Lysol. I'm not very Happy with the situation since I was unable to get my money back for false advertisement. DONT STAY HERE!

Worst hotel I have ever stayed.

We needed to stay in a hotel for the night because of a power outage in our city. I checked in late, and found our room to not be very clean. There were roaches in the bathroom. The TV did not work. The front desk lady who checked me in was nice, but the one I checked out with was rude. I was rushing to get my girls to school in the morning, and wanted to grab them something to eat from the breakfast room. I was told I could not take anything from the continental breakfast which at every hotel I have ever stayed I had been allowed to grab a couple items from the breakfast area. If I had been trying to grab a bunch of items I would have understood, but I was just trying to get a couple of muffins.

The hotel did not have light bulbs in the room, there were now wash clothes in the room and the remote did not work. Called front desk the problems were not resolved. I had book the room for two nights, checked in late. Left the next morning. I complained to the front desk and requested a refund for the night I did not stay. The hotel personal did not seem to care since it was a pre-paid room.

SLEEP IN YOUR CAR!!!!

My glasses broke and my boyfriend wasn't feeling well coming back from Galveston to Cypress I couldnt drive any further..I found what I thought was a good deal so I booked it. As soon as I walk in the room was very basic but it was just to rest so no big deal, UNTIL, we saw roaches on the bed, on the dresser an TV, while going back to the car there were people walking around, eye balling my Lexus- it was time to go....I went to the front office and since this was a no cancellation booking I couldnt get my money back- The woman in the front office was sweet, explained, gave me another room where I only saw 1 roach... we ended up going to the Four points down the street and sleeping in the car parking lot...much nicer safer and no chance of roaches or bed bugs.

Bad Stay

We purchased 3 rooms for a youth event in Houston. At check in, the non-smoking rooms, smelled like someone had been smoking in there for weeks. The bathroom door in one room was literally falling apart, and the lights in all three rooms were flickering on and off. The furniture was broken or busted, and there was evidence of pest activity. We really just utilized the rooms for the night, so we put up with the issues. However, in the morning, one of the teens I had in my group went to the front office for coffee, and had to call me from the sidewalk by the highway in front of the hotel. The morning staff had kicked him off property without trying to call one of our rooms, or calling me. I was able to deal with the staff. It ended well, but we will not be booking a knights inn any time soon!

Not a place to stay.

The first room we did spend the night in, was stinky and dirty, the sink had soap scum and the tub needed a refinishing or something. Then the vanity light went out the next day, they let us go look at another room, but the ceiling was dripping water over the clothes rack in the bathroom area. We went to another room and it was acceptable, but was on the 2nd floor no elevator. The tub still looked dirty, but we weren't going to soak in it, so that's where we finished out our stay. But I will never go back there. And I will have second thoughts about ever staying at a Knight's Inn again.

Do Not Book Your Stay At This Hotel

It could've been way better if they put effort into you enjoying your stay. I was on a business trip and in their ad it says free wifi, let me tell you, you DO NOT get free wifi. It would've probably been better if they had free wifi but no don't believe it, they don't. If you don't speak spanish, your maids won't understand you and will harass you. I had to change rooms because the air conditioner didn't work. I got to the other room and it has a stain on the floor where someone might've been killed and the lights came on whenever they wanted to so I was for sure certain a ghost haunted my room. TV's are out of date, their breakfast wasn't appealing, there was no mini fridge in the room. The stay just wasn't good, I wouldn't recommend this to anyone.
