Our room was clean and quiet, the bed and bedding were comfortable. Everything worked as it should. Close to MD Anderson, which was a plus for us. We have stayed here several times over the last few months, and have always enjoyed it.

We arrived about 45 mins early, and it was no issue checking in at 2:15 pm. Plenty of free parking was available. The outdoor sign could use a replacement, but the decor inside the lobby was very welcoming and positive sayings were all over the walls. The receptionist was super friendly. The “mailboxes” outside the rooms added a neat touch, and the room was very clean and decorated in a unique antique-style. For example, it had an old timey phone, refrigerator, etc. The bed was clean and soft and perfect after a long night attending the Texas Bowl. The following morning, we ate a small breakfast before departing and the options were plenty to include eggs, biscuits, pancakes, French toast, cereal, juice, and coffee, to mention a few. I would definitely stay here again.

My only complaint is that the room they gave me was on the first floor at the very end. It was close to the exit side door so easy access to my vehicle. The issue was the noise that came being in that room. Every time a person went out/in that door it slammed very loudly, woke me out of my sleep every time. I would have preferred to walk through the front door if it meant my room not being close to an exit door. Some kind of cushion or stopper would be nice to prevent that.

The staff were very friendly! Breakfast was okay, nothing extravagant but works for how much you spend for the night. There could be some remodeling done to the building (noticed some cracks underneath doors, no shelves for personal items in the shower, etc.) but besides that my night was fine 👍
