I was pleasantly surprised at how well this went. I originally got a message from the hotel saying that there would have to be a $100 deposit but they didn't clarify that if you have credit and ID, you don't have to worry about that so if you get that message, disregard it. Room was nice. No elevator so make sure you're don't have issues with stairs. Nice room. Had a fridge, microwave, cupboard and even some dishes that I was able to use for my leftovers

The owner/manager was 10/10: friendly, accommodating, attentive and wanted to make sure everything went smoothly for my stay. Easy to Uber there and ok to walk in daytime but perhaps not at night. Must use stairs to access rooms. Think more European hostel.

Good location. I was charged US$40 not foreseen in the reservation. The hotel owner charged me US$25 a day for a parking lot far from the hotel, lying that other parking lots were much more expensive. They were cheaper. The hotel owner only showed up at reception around 9:00, so there was no breakfast when I needed to leave the hotel before that time.

Me and my husband choose to stay at this hotel simply due to the location. It was extremely close to event we were in town for. We only stayed one night and at first glance we almost didn't t check in. The outside looks sketchy but let me tell you, it was great. The room was clean, no weird smells or sounds. I'm autistic and was very worked about being overstimulate with sounds and smells that come with older buildings. The staff were very helpful, the inside doesn't match the outside. All new appliances and the mirror in the bathroom was everything, I'm actually ordering one for my home cause it was amazing! I can't even describe the features the mirror had. It was small but cute and comfortable and intimate. It was seriously perfect. So glad we chose to stay. Definitely will be back

Overall for the price this place was the great! And the negative reviews complaining about the staff? I’m not sure they were very polite throughout my 2 day stay. Only complaint was the loud street noises that reached into the room on a Saturday night, but it’s a Saturday night downtown what to you expect right? Clean bathroom and bedding. Would stay again Plus room had a kitchen that I didn’t think I would have, was a nice perk

The room itself was ok. Things looked clean but in the bathroom there was no hand soap and there was a hole in the wall that had been haphazardly repaired. The in suite kitchen was fine. I saw a bug crawling on the wall and all of the cutlery/cookware was just thrown in the cabinets. At one point on my second day my key stopped working and when I went down to the front desk the lady “working” there couldn’t fix it. She didn’t actually work there, she was just there helping out the owner and didn’t actually know how to do anything. The owner called the maintenance guy to go let me in the room from the dumpster which was just our back and it took him 15 minutes to get back inside. When I got back that night it was still broken, even though it was supposed to be fixed and when I went down to ask why it didn’t work I got scolded for putting my key next to the phone. The room was enough to get me through but after I didn’t feel the safest, but that could be my own anxieties. Everything in the room felt worn out and the tv didn’t work that well. The only thing that would make me stay again would be if everything around the Toyota center was sold out

Rooms are freshly renovated with new appliances and fixtures. So new the oven still has a pamphlet in it. Real thick comforter and more pillows than Ive ever seen in a hotel room. Well temperature controlled and the water pressure is no joke! Victor the counter guy is very nice and super helpful. Im not sure about the history of the building but say hi to Mr. Casper the spirit with the handlebar mustache for us... he's very curious about us 3 weird comic con ladies but was benign. He likes the fan to stay on. 😘

When first checking in I guess the dude who was checking me in was in training. But poor dude could barely finish a sentence before his trainer started to correct him. The room was ok and the tv and wifi works good. Shower was small and you couldn’t adjust the shower head considering I am 5’1 the shower head was to high. Also, if you go to the Rockets game it was a 5 minute walk. Don’t drink because you will have to climb two flights of stairs. Check out i cant speak much on it because there was no one there to help us check out. Just know you need your room card to open the door to get out & pressing the red button doesn’t get you anywhere. We just pushed the key inside the window since no one was there. I would say this hotel/suite is no where near fancy & is outdated. If you’re looking for luxury go else where. But the location was perfect for the Toyota Center & different restaurants.

We had a last minute housing issue while traveling and booked here in a rush. The staff was so accommodating and friendly! Easy walk to convention center and lots of restaurants and bars. Definitely not the most modern place, but it worked for a few nights. Also has a full kitchen which is super convenient!

Upon arrival, I was greeted by an extremely friendly staff member named Victor, who immediately made me feel welcome. After I told him I was there to check in, he kindly offered me water and took the time to thoroughly explain everything I needed to know about the hotel and my stay. What truly stood out was Victor’s attentiveness—he did not let me carry my own luggage to the room and made sure I was completely comfortable and informed about all the room details. His helpfulness and genuine hospitality are exactly the reasons why I would gladly return to this hotel again and again. Even the next morning, when he saw me, Victor graciously offered me morning beverages. This level of personal attention and awesome customer service made my stay exceptional. Thank you, Victor, for going above and beyond!

We came here for the Enhypen concert in Toyota center and it was less than 5 minutes of a walk. Super convenient and love that the room has a kitchen to cook. The staff was super friendly, special thanks to Victor. Will definitely be coming back and recommending this gem!!

Great staff! Very helpful and friendly. Allowed me to check in a few hours early. Wanted to move to another room, due to noise on the ceiling fan, they help me with that too. Rooms are spacious and equipped with full stove, fridge and microwave. Easy walk to Toyota Center and George R.Brown convention center

Very convenient to George Brown Convention Center and Toyota Center! Walkable to bars and restaurants downtown. Victor at check-in was very friendly and helpful. The renovation is fantastic, and the kitchenette is an added bonus.

Went to a concert at the Toyota center. Super short walk and didn’t have to deal with traffic afterwards. Had some last minute changes with my room and the guy working the front desk was super helpful. Would definitely stay again.

Excellent hotel for the price; staff was friendly and went over and above. Unbelievably convenient if you're going to an event at Toyota Center. Walking distance to bars/restaurants and points of interest downtown. My only complaint is the parking is pricey. But, it's a low cost hotel in a prime location; don't book it and then complain that it's not the 4 seasons.

The door to the restroom wouldn't close. No Continental breakfast. And had to pay for parking. Beds are full size not queen. But great location might use again and just request a different room.

Once you arrive, they charge you 60 dollars for "sanitization" but they never told us previously when you make reservation. When we arrived there was no soap in the bathroom. The breakfast included... dissappointing. There is no space to have breakfast and there is no breakfast properly. You sit up in the lobby (only 8 to 9 am) and the employer gives you frozen packed waffles, and a fruit and a commercial bottle of fruit, is like you can go and buy them in the supermarket (they also have eggs but after looking at the waffle I did not want to try the eggs) Rooms...they are cute but they are more like a mini appartment. They have a little kitchen. Room are ok if you are lookiig for an appartment in which you can live as in your own house (buying an cooking groceries included)

Good location. I was charged US$40 not foreseen in the reservation. The hotel owner charged me US$25 a day for a parking lot far from the hotel, lying that other parking lots were much more expensive. They were cheaper. The hotel owner only showed up at reception around 9:00, so there was no breakfast when I needed to leave the hotel before that time.

The blanket on the bed had some sort of blood stain on it. There was no breakfast in the morning. It was only one bar of soap, and it was used. I will never ever go back again

It was about what I’d expect from a 2-star hotel. The room I stayed in was clean, and they cleaned it every day for the 4 days and nights I stayed. The main thing I didn’t like was the premium price, but I realized I was paying for the convenience of being a 12-minute walk away from the George R Brown Convention Center, which is why I was there. It was nice to have a full kitchen. If the TV experience of a hotel is your jam, you might not like this one, as the TV in my room was a Roku TV without any subscriptions, but more importantly, it was extremely slow, laggy, and buffered frequently. I used my wifi hotspot and laptop to entertain myself instead. The bed was as comfortable as any other hotel bed I’ve stayed in and was comfortable enough for me, which says a lot because I’m a memory foam enthusiast who doesn’t like these types of mattresses in the first place. The staff was friendly and helpful. Overall, I’d rate this as a good experience with a few things that are less desirable but manageable for a short stay.
