Room was clean and neat. Although the bed cover had (burn) holes on it, everything was comfortable. Just wish we had more than one trash can in room. Stay was good and we liked that the parking lot was nice and bright! It was also Very convenient that HEB is within walking distance of hotel. We were visiting a family member at HCA Medical Center and the location was perfect! We would stay again.

Loved The Location When I Checked In The Guy At The Front Was Kinda Rude. Threw My Cards At Me… We Got A Non Smoking Room , But Our Beds Had Burn Holes In Them. Sheets Where Dirty. I Ended Up Staying One Night Of My Stay And Got An Airbnb.

The most recent reviews is what led me to book. The reviews from 2023 were not very favorable so apparently major overhaul of the rooms has been done. No clamoring smell was in our room. I like the fact that there isn’t any carpet! Bed was ok…not the best but not the worst either. I would stay here again. The price was excellent compared to where it’s located. Didn’t use any of the amenities because was simply there for an early medical appointment.

The staff was friendly and helpful, even tracking me down at breakfast after I'd left something in our room and was about to leave. Overall, the hotel was sufficient but no frills.

The price is unreasonable considering there is no pool or vending machines. Breakfast is cold prepackaged muffins and instant oatmeal. Or stale cocoa pebbles and corn flakes and good luck with the staff having milk available.

Property was very clean . The price was very good. If you are just looking for a place to sleep and close to TMC and attractions this is a very good place to stay.

I was so pleasantly surprised.we came for the medical center. Our flight arrived early and we were able to check into our room early anyway. The room was clean and spacious and it looked to be newly remodeled. I would definitely stay here again. The front desk was incredibly friendly.

Location My Husband fell in the shower due to slick floor and staff wouldn't even come to room so we could show them that tub was very slick and they had no grab bars in tub. Was very disappointed in the way they were unconcerned about his well being.

The place is clean and affordable. The amenities and breakfast are sparse, but the price is good. The area is safe. The attendant, Yaki is helpful and friendly. If you want a clean place, in a safe area, for a good price, this is it. It’s close to the museums and medical center.

You get what you pay for, but I was not expecting the room to smell of weed for 3 days. The “breakfast” was burnt coffee and cereal packs. The only saving grace was the staff was very nice.

The Clerk at the front desk was very RUDE . When he spoke to me. I ask for assistance making a phone call and the clerk said the call would not go through. The room was clean, how I could tell was when I took my shoes off and walked to the bathroom. Before putting on my flip flops my socks were still white. Don’t know what was going on with the bed every time you sat on it . Or got in the bed to lay down. The bed made a loud sound . Housekeeping came by both days I stayed and asked if my room needed to be cleaned. I informed the staff I did not need their services at the time. I was unable to watch TV . Not sure if I needed to access the WiFi password. For some reason I couldn’t get it to go through. Oh on the morning when checking out I found the was some free breakfast items offered. But would have been to be informed by the RUDE Clerk at the front desk . Upon my arrival that there were some breakfast items were offered in the morning. After I did booked a 3 night stay at this establishment.

The final straw was when someone started beating on our door and tried several times to enter. My 81 year old MiL and a 62 year old wife ( 6 weeks out after Major Chest surgery were injured trying to keep him out. Police were called, took 19 minutes to respond, only to find out the check in clerk didn't note the room change due to disability. No calling the room, checking his registration list, nope he chose to try and break into a rented Hotel room. To top it off the parking lot and several tenants were let's say trying to buy the Original 1900 Coke a Cola.

Arrived late at night and the two men working the desk were very friendly. The parking lot is tight, but felt safe and there were a couple available spots still. Room was clean other than 2 cigarette burns in the sheets. The lobby has hot coffee and that's pretty much it, but all in all seemed like a good value motel.

There was a water line break. The water was off for hours. We could not stay there. My husband was having knee surgery the next day and needed clean water to shower that evening and in morning. We had to move to another hotel. Expedia would not refund our money even tho we never entered the room! I’ll never use Expedia again! We did arrive during Checkin time just to be told there was no water.
- 1/5
The room smelled strongly like cigarette smoke the moment we walked in. It was so bad that the smell stuck to our clothes and hair. The room also did not feel clean at all. Because of this, we decided to leave the same day and didn’t even stay overnight. I didn’t even feel comfortable letting the kids sit or lay on the bed. It was a horrible experience, especially when traveling with children. I would not recommend this place at all, particularly for families.

Air conditioning was great, parking lot was very brightly lit. Bed was very comfortable. It is close to an expressway so I did hear sirens during the night. We had a man with a shopping cart pound on our door twice during the night. There was then loud arguing in the walkway nearby. Good place for reasonable rates and clean rooms. Some negatives regarding location
- 1/5
What a complete trash hole! The water didn't work for 2 days which means the toilet didn't work for 2 days. When the water did it was brown. To not have a toilet working is completely disgraceful. Crack heads wandering the parking lot. The management are a-holes. I got charged when I booked my stay in January then they charged me again at the location. They refused to reimburse saying it's expedias duty but it's not. Couldn't be more dissatisfied.

Did not know by the pictures that this was a motel, not a hotel. They did not have a room on the first floor which posed problems for my husband and I due to age and health reasons. We thought there would be an elevator, not stairs. The beds were very springy and bouncy. Not super comfortable. There were soap bars and lotion but nothing else, not even Kleenex. Room was clean and ac worked good. One good surprise was a ceiling fan over the beds, first time I’ve seen that.

The hotel is in a great location, it worked out perfectly for me for a short trip to Houston. The staff is very nice and very friendly!!! It’s clean and it has everything you need but it’s not a new hotel and maybe if they change the pillows and the blankets with new and comfy ones, that would bring a big plus to this property!!! The price was great!!! I would stay here again!!!
