“DO NOT STAY HERE!!!!! HORRIBLE!!!!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 September 2011
1
person found this review helpful

HORRIBLE!!!!!! I checked in on Monday, 09-26-11 relatively late. I was traveling to Louisiana from California and was traveling with my wife and our 6 lb chihuahua. Upon check in, I explained that we have a chihuahua that sleeps in a kennel. The front desk clerk said that was fine. The next morning, our dog barked when a hotel employee knocked at the door to ask what time we would be checking out. My wife explained that we would be checking out in a few minutes. Upon checking out, the front desk manager asked me if I had a dog in the room. I replied, "Yes, we have our chihuahua." Of course, I had already cleared this with the front desk clerk at check in. He explained that they were a NO pet hotel and that there would be a charge for a thorough room cleaning. I became angry and said that he should take that up with the front desk clerk that allowed me to check in with a pet!!! I offered to go to the room with him so that they could see there was NO damage OR extra cleaning required (as the dog never left the kennel while in the room!) The mgr. spoke to the owners, who happened to be present, and the decided to charge me $150!!!! I objected but was unable to prevent it since they obviously had my credit card information from check in. The mgr. even tried to convince the owners that this was unnecessary but the owners refused. I carefully reviewed ALL documents presented to me and signed by me and there was NO mention, whatsoever, of their NO pet policy OR of any fees that would result of pets being present. Also, remember, we had the hotel's permission to have the pet with us!!!!! I have forwarded these documets to the BBB. They are just greedy crooks! I have since disputed the charge and, as promised, will post my story all over the internet and have complained to the BBB. These people are lying crooks!!!!! There are MANY beautiful hotels on JFK run by companies and people of integrity. Please stay at one of those hotels and avoid these greedy, lying crooks.

Room Tip: If staying on JFK near Bush Intercontinental, stay at any of the other MANY hotels, just NOT this on...

“Fine Place to Stay Near the Airport”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 August 2011

The hotel was clean. The staff was friendly. It may not have been fancy, but was a good place to stay for business near the airport. I especially appreciated the frequent airport shuttle service.

“Great refuge for a stranded family!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 August 2011

We were stranded in Houston thanks to weather delays costing us our connection, and needed a place in the middle of the night. Staff graciously picked us up at the airport, supplied us with a more than decent room, including a crib for our one-year-old, found us milk for her, and got us back to the airport the next morning for our flight. Complimentary breakfast quite reasonable and much appreciated. We erstwhile refugees much thank the staff for their many small kindnesses.

“Practically perfect place”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 July 2011

We stayed at this hotel twice because our flights didn't connect properly, necessitating two overnights in Houston. The beds were extremely comfortable. We were not traveling with a laptop, so we found the computers available in the business center very convenient. Breakfast was excellent, and included sausage and eggs, waffles, and yogurt in addition to the usual cereals and pastries. Our only complaint was that the shower temperature was a bit lower than we prefer, but was still warm enough to be comfortable. Overall, a lovely place, and we'd definitely stay here again. Also, we enjoyed dinner both nights at Kung Food, a very good Chinese restaurant next to the hotel.
