I stayed here in late Feb 2011 for business south of town. It's located about 7 minutes from the tiny airport that only flies Continental to Houston and back 3 or 4 times a day. The Hampton Inn is a block away. Its also only a few blocks from the mall on the north side. Industrial facilities with ports on the river are about 20 minutes south, like Invista where I was working. The hotel is very clean. Rooms, breakfast area, lobby all look lovely and are moped and cleaned daily. Breakfast was particularly good, nothing watered down and all items plentiful. Wifi connection was good, lots of band width, but that might be because the hotel appeared half full. I found fresh cookies across from the front desk every evening. I enjoyed my talks with the night desk manager. He is a foodie, and we talked about the local restaurants and the lack of a good Indian restaurant in town. I ate with customers at the Greek Brothers restaurant a few blocks south on the left, and it is highly recommended (maybe 5 blocks down?). I think the pool was closed for service while I was there, which would not normally be an issue in Feb, but it hit 81F one afternoon. It can be muggy in the mornings too. I would happily stay here again.
