A Stay at Palace Inn, Wayside, Houston

There was no lobby where I could have stayed to wait for a friend the day I checked out. As a result, I had to pay $50.00 to stay in my room till 3:00pm. The advertised breakfast included in the room rate was a sham.

Clean!

This was the cleanest motel I've ever stayed in. It was cleaner than some hotels. It's a small place in a decent area, and I felt pretty safe coming and going. I will definitely be booking again.
