I had the misfortune of visiting Houston during OTC week. While I would normally stay in the city, everything was full or prices were ridiculous so I stayed here.

While it made for a long drive into the center of Houston, I was happy enough with my decision. I was not expecting the Ritz but was pleasantly surprised. The rooms are nice enough, the reception I got on checking in was quite good. The staff was always friendly and helpful.

When I am staying someplace for multiple days, I like staying someplace that has a kitchen so I can cook my own food rather than eat out all the time. The kitchen at this hotel was more than adequate.

Breakfast was a bit underwhelming compared to a Hampton Inn, so I only had the breakfast one day. Simply not much variety. Laundry room was good and free wifi is always a plus.

This hotel is on the Katy Freeway and that is the USP. I would zip across to any place as the highway just next to the hotel and helped me avoid the traffic jams. The breakfast in the hotel was excellent.

This is the worst hotel possible to stay in. My credit card was cgarged wrongly. The Director was unprofessional. Worst of all, the heater sparked off the smoke detector even at the lowest increase in temp, they wouldn't even change your rooms.

Note, i've stayed at this hotel several times before, but i guess things aren't going well for this location any longer.

To them, the customer isn't important. They're just about making their money.

I would recommend a Motel 6 or 8 over this location.

Angry Cust.

My wife and I have stayed here three times, for a week about each time. We stay in a two bedroom suite.

It is clean and convenient and is designed for an extended stay. The suite has a full kitchen, utensils, and a TV in the living area and each bedroom. They provide free wireless internet access in each room. There is a laundry room in the main building.

The staff is very friendly.

There is a free breakfast each morning.

The mattresses are quite soft. We are used to firm mattresses and sleeping on these are a challenge for several days.

The suite has one small bathroom.

It is about 15 miles or so from downtown and the traffic congestion in Houston at rush hours can be quite bad.
