I came to Houston for my anniversary vacation and was very disappointed in my stay. If i can rate a zero i def would because the rooms online did not add up with the rooms in person. Our first room which was a suite contained roaches. When you open the front door to the suite there was a roach above the door the size of my big toe. Mind you we just arrived from a long flight and it was after 8pm that we got there. I immediately went to the front to complain and manager by the name of LOLA showed no empathy or concern to anything. All she said was she could switch my room. I asked for a partial refund and she told me i can get a full refund if i leave. I’m not from Texas how inconvenient is it to have a guest leave in a state then know nothing of and try to find somewhere else to stay. We switched rooms and that was no better. Ants in my bed, me and my girlfriend also got bit so many times in our room i started to think there was bed bugs. Our sink was also broken, the handle on the bathroom sink was off and when we called front desk again they told us we can switch rooms. Seems like the only accommodation this place has is a constant switch of rooms but no real resolution. Our room was also a suite which contains a fridge and a microwave but we didnt get a microwave until the last night of our stay and maintenance took an hour after our call to the front to bring it. Overall i hated staying here and should not have to pay the full price for such terrible experience.

Clean room, parking garage not great, take water.

The room was good for a budget hotel. It was clean with a nice sized bathroom. Hot water was immediate. Big screen tv we couldn’t figure out how to work without instructions. Staff friendly at front desk. Take your own water or go next door to the gas station. There wasn’t even a water cup in the room, and the hotel charges $9 for a small water bottle. The price gouging continued with the world’s worst designed parking garage. If you drive a pickup truck find another hotel, as the spaces are narrow and impossible to back into. It’s $25/night.
