The noises in the room and the curtains did not shut completely so the light at night shined through so bright.

My room had stains on the carpet. Had a musty smell, not sure if from the humidity but wasn't pleasant. Noticed other furniture in dining area with stains as well. Breakfast was pretty basic. The door latch was broken although they recommend to lock it for safety on their key cards. If you plan on hanging out near downtown is usually a 15 min uber ride and can add up

The hotel is being remodeled so you can have noise during the day--I only saw that the day of check in (weekday). No noise at night, and I was even right by elevator. Hotel seems quiet. Cute eclectic room with usual hotel amenities. Towels bed fine. Staff was pleasant. I didn't partake in breakfast but did see offerings and it is basic food items and juice, coffee , etc. Wifi worked
I had a remodeled room but there were stains on Bed Frame and couch in room. The couch was bad- wouldn't sit on that. Room only had one main light switch by front door so you have to go to door to turn off lights, but that's not that big of a deal.

location was under construction dust was a factor my child asthmatic. She got ill with an attack the night after. Iwas disappointed with the scent was that fresh and inviting.The breakfast was good. I liked the breakfast best. They had a it was enjoyable
The scent was not inviting and the construction created a chaos; too much dust. When my child got sick when I left there that morning I check in at 11:00 pm and left by after 9:00 to minutes to 10:00 or so. Wasnt that comfortable.

The location is close to nrg park which is why I came in the first place. The location is also close to plenty of food places, grocery stores, shops & some bars.
The stay was good. Only cons I have is it was really noisy I think they were doing construction upstairs. The breakfast was bland & slim options. The juice machine was never filled for breakfast so it would dispense water with a little color to it.

Clean hotel. Friendly staff. Updated bathrooms in rooms.
Parking lot felt sketchy when arriving at night and most rooms do not have a view over the parking lot. The parking lot had lots of discarded toilets and other building materials sitting out, probably from their recent bathroom upgrades. Dirty, worn out hotel signage facing the street did not help the ambiance upon arrival.
There was a very loud vent is the bathroom that ran 24/7 and could not be turned off. The bathroom door had to be kept shut at all times because of the noise.
Condition of room felt worn out. Scratches and chips on furnishings. Small burn hole in comforter and worn out hole in sheet. No wall base in bed area, and uneven wall finish where previous adhesive for wall base was visible. Incomplete wall base in bathroom. Missing door frame on bathroom door. Residential grade anti-slip mat for shower that you had to roll out yourself.
At breakfast biscuits were rock hard and gravy not tasty. Cereal was fine. Seating was either at oversized tables or in arm chairs hunching over a low coffee table. After deciding to throw away our food, we ate elsewhere.

They scam people, they 50 down payment and it was not returned when we are checking out. They say it will take 3 weeks before it will be returned. I think it’s a scam, because people will get tired of following the 50 dollars they took in our credit card,
They should not took 50 dollars on my credit card as down because it’s alread been paid ahead of time.

Check in was quick and efficient. Right blind clip was broken. Staff offered to send maintenance to our room first thing the next morning. We were able to get it closed without the bright outside light glaring in through the night.
The blinds did not work properly and kids in the room next door were running, jumping and yelling but did quiet down at 10 p.m.

Location to MD Anderson Hospital & easy access to different restaurants
I was there a few months ago & stayed in a 3rd floor (newly renovated floor) & there were some issues then. This time we were back on 3rd floor but a different room. The receptionist said they were just starting renovation on 1st floor having completed 2 & 3. Our room had curtains that would not close & there was a clip on one that we were able to at least pull & clip to keep the light out. The bathroom had the most updated but was missing the interior trim around the door. It was very noticeable to the eye. There was also a partial roll of toilet paper sitting on the sink counter. No holder for it & not an extra roll under the sink. We are adults so we could reach it but a child would need help. Breakfast was open till 9:30 but when I went down at 9:05 almost every thing was gone & area cleaned. I asked the kitchen staff & was offered an oatmeal packet or whatever was left out. She was nice, not rude at all, but I was heading to Dr. & was hoping for a granola bar or fruit I could take with me. This happened last time too.
