Stayed in a room on the lobby level, quite noisy particularly at night due to guests congregating in the area. The side entrance door was broken and would slam shut upon entering and exiting. Overall, a decent stay as the hotel itself is clean and located conveniently to the airport.

The proximity to Hobby Airport is the primary reason for my visit. Not a lot of close dining options and the freeway means a constant drone of cars.

We had no issues. We had just gotten off of a cruise and rooms were not supposed to br ready until 1500. The worked with us to get my family and I checked in as early as possible. Great customer service and even ordered my family an Uber to go to the airport.

Not the best Holiday Inn

Called for the free airport shuttle. The hotel is five minutes from the airport. They told us it would be 15 minutes. Called back after 30 minutes of waiting. They assured us the driver was close. We gave up after an hour and paid $40 for an Uber. Ceiling tiles removed for an apparent leak on the main floor. Nobody working to fix it the entire time we were there. Floor slippery. Gym closed. Pool cold. Breakfast was great. There's a gas station convenience store next door to the hotel, which was... convenient. It's right on the highway so it's very noisy if your room faces the highway.
