    Two very specific items: the bathroom sink had an inoperable drain plug...so for four days, shaving, brushing teeth, etc., was very unpleasant. Also, breakfast service is disappointing. Condiments very limited, unsanitary and room verification required.

    Our stay was great. My only issue was that the hotel only has 2 entrances. One of the entrances was blocked by the hotel shuttle the entire time we were there. I was told by the clueless receptionist “this is just what we do.” This is a major code violation, and it has been reported. I was further informed that there was no staff available to move the shuttle. So that means if there is an emergency and everyone needs to vacate the property, no one can move the van? Ok. Got it.

    We arrived way earlier than expected, but the front desk didn't bat an eye to call housekeeping and get a room ready for us and allow us an early check-in. The breakfast in the morning was great, hot and fresh! While it is an older building, it is well-maintained. Definately, will stay here the next time we are in town.

    Everything was great with the exception of the greeting at the front desk. I am an IHG member but didn’t have my number readily available. The young lady noted down my phone number and email address and I never heard back from her. The person in front of me received the complimentary goodie bag, no questions asked, and as I walked back into hotel with my luggage, I noticed she also gave a bag to the man in line behind me.

    Houston, Texas, and I’m so grateful for the outstanding service we received throughout our stay. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, making us feel right at home from the moment I arrived. A special thank you to Stephanie and Lele—they truly made our stay memorable. Stephanie was professional, kind, and always ready to help with anything I needed. And LeLe was wonderful—her warmth and attention to detail stood out every day. One of the highlights of my stay was the breakfast. It was delicious, with a great variety of options to choose from. LeLe made sure everything was perfect each morning, and her friendly presence made breakfast feel like a treat rather than just a meal. The room was clean and comfortable, and the overall atmosphere of the hotel was peaceful and inviting. I highly recommend Holiday Inn Express & Suites - Hobby Airport Area by IHG Houston, Texas in Houston to anyone looking for a place where genuine hospitality shines through. We will definitely be back!

    The most important things when lodging are a clean, safe and quiet environment to get sleep. That was impossible in Room 308, it is approximately 100 yards from the highway and the road noise was horrible. Was not able to sleep at all! Can’t emphasize enough how disappointed I am. A total loss of money and left feeling terrible as we went about our travels. Would never stay again and will warn people of the same.

    The Hotel was very comfortable, service was great. However, I was cold and when I turned on the heat I noticed that the air was coming out of a vent that was probably dirty. Since I am alergic to dust, I developed a severed headache during the night which I believe was the result of dust from the vent. Perhaps there is a filter that needs to be replaced. Otherwise this hotel was great.
