I had a great stay here! The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the AC worked really well. The staff was friendly and made check-in and check-out quick and easy. It's also in a convenient location with stores and restaurants nearby. For the price, it exceeded my expectations. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, affordable place to stay.

Location was convenient for me. Only thing decent was shower head Pet rooms were also smoking rooms the room smelled of smoke and musty. Sheets and bed covers had stains. Floor had dead bugs. Not all outlets by bed worked

I left my jacket and a t-shirt hanging in the closet and drove back after work only to find out I have to wait another day because housekeeping leaves found items in their storage room, which is only accessible from 9am-5pm. I work 10am-7pm so I had less than one hour to get my items back. It took the manager several attempts to find it because it was in an unmarked plastic bag. Don’t leave anything behind here!

The only thing that I liked is that there’s a meat market next door. I didn’t like the fact that I had to ask housekeeping to come clean my room. There were several times the housekeeper would have an attitude because I would ask her if she could come clean my room. She would try to make excuses and say that she couldn’t go in the room because she was afraid of dogs. I had a chihuahua. When I knew I wanted the room cleaned I would put him in his crate. Even when I would tell the housekeeper he’s in his crate, she would complain about she had a lot of other rooms to clean. Also, the $50 deposit was not returned to us because they claimed we left the room dirty. Mind you, nothing was broken or damaged. Which you would think would be the cause of no refund of the deposit. The room was not left dirty. Yes both trash cans were full because like I stated above the house keeper didn’t come the day before we checked out. This place pretty much scammed us for our $50 deposit. This place isn’t good for a week stay or longer. Maybe just one night. Oh and the washer and dryer in the guest laundry room suck. They do not wash your laundry well.

I booked a non-smoking pet room, but after an 11-hour drive, they only had smoking rooms left. Also the duvet and floors were filthy.

Overall a solid deal at $50/nt in Houston. Nice restaurants in area. However, mega road noise anywhere outside, no breakfast. Crappy coffee, and no elevator. Also this facility is quite a hike from the aeropuerto.

I’ve stayed there several times and the staff is always extremely nice. They welcome me when I get there because they remember me. The room is exceptionally clean and the shower is amazing. It is huge. We love it. If you’re looking for a hotel in the area, this is the best one hands-down.

Definately a " no frills" motel. Very new. A good place to sleep, but no extras. Rooms are very stark in terms of design, but a nice sleep and everything thats needed.

Manager came into my room an hour and half before check out to inspect room for damages. This has never happened to me in my travels and she was not really pleasant and I was uncomfortable about the whole incident.

Bed are a bit firm but other that it was fantastic
- 0.5/5
The rooms looked good and clean The mattress is horrible and the people that "live" there are rude,loud have no respect for those trying to sleep.the slamming of the doors rattled the walls and made sleep impossible. The name of the motel should be charged to the reprobate inn!! Not to mention constant dog barking. Will never stay here again.
- 4/5
Freshly remodeled, clean, utilitarian. Check-in was fast and friendly. The shower was the best feature. A step-in shower with a rain head from above and two horizontal shower heads on the wall, fantastic way to start the day. Bed was hard and the covers were very thin. TV was non-functional. Apparently, the remote needed to be coded. Not that big of a deal to me. I mentioned it on checking out and they said it just needed to be recoded.
- 2.5/5
It's very close to a lot of stores and fast food. Not enough water pressure, a/c didn't get cold enough, furniture was to big for the size of the room, rude owners.

Dooood the shower is a dream shower, room was very comfortable and had a futon also. Highly recommend this over the other 3 in the area for same rate! Also got the smoking room and didn’t smoke but smelled clean wen I opened the door even tho the a/c was off

Very Convenient as a travel stop. Location is perfect and the place is very clean and comfortable. This is our second time staying and will make this our stop each time we travel. The room door lock did not lol properly as the lock hardware did not match up for the inside lock. We solely depended on the key card lock that evening. And the towels were cheaply made and scratchy.

I like the fact that they have smoking rooms, are not too expensive and it is a decent place to stay. Usually you don't get that. And the staff is super nice too. I have stayed here several times and will stay here again. They recently remodeled so everythhing is new and they have the rainfall shower heads. I guess you can tell I'm very pleased and recommend them to anybody looking for a place to stay.

Paid a 50.00 deposit ther I was supposed to get back which I have every time I stayed there to not get back do to renting a smoking room. First of all it states very clear that it is a refundable 50.00 deposit if the room was up to standards. Well I'm a clean freak so I know it was. Under new management was all I was told. BS these ppl are shady and I complained about the noise and the room wasn't even remotely up to standards. I cleaned it myself counters were fifty shower was not cleaned properly, the microwave was not even wiped down. The only thing good was they now accept pets. get your crap together if you want to rip people off on the deposit.

My daughter said it was creepy. The stairs were loose and there were spider when walking up them. Ice machine at the front office down stairs, we were at the other end, very inconvenient. There was no coffee in room or in office. No breakfast as advertised, this was the only amenity that I filtered.
- 2/5
Room was beautiful; however, I booked through Expedia and upon arrival they wanted my credit card to charge a deposit and charged my card for the room rental again AND a deposit. So with my payment to Expedia and this hotel, my stay turned into almost triple for less than a 15 hour stay.

LOVE the countertop cook surface! Check-in was VERY pleasant, room VERY clean!! Also like the windows, as they afford PRIVACY, that many other motels do not.

The property is nice, the room was great, other than the phone not working. We stayed 4 days here and got room service once. We checked into a 4 person room with just 2 people, and was told the friends that come to visit couldn’t be there or we would have to pay an additional 7.00 a day for them...What? They were just coming to hang out for a couple hours and play card games...Then we were told I needed to pay an additional 10.00 a day for my service dog?!? Service dogs dong get charged, never have, never will. I assumed this was all in attempts to keep the 50.00 deposit that is required to rent the room. We did however get the deposit back, after asking for such. All in all, it’s a good stay, just have to deal with some drama up front.

Need to Pay a $50 refundable deposit. Hope you're not in a hurry checking out, because you cannot get deposit until they check the room. Check in not until 3:30 pm. Check out at 11:00. Beds are hard. TVs are set above the air/heating unit. No coffee makers in room. Showers are best feature in the room, but it is not a shower/tub combination.
- 2/5
Did not like that staff wasn’t accommodating when asked for stained sheets to be removed. Instead we’re upset when having to change and lady in office trying to convince me the sheets were ok, then nerves to disrespect me a paying customer for expecting decency of a room.
