Elevator not working!!
I booked for 2 nights but stayed for one night. When we checked in the elevator was working. We left for dinner and the elevator was not working. Our room was on the 7th floor and we had to use the stairs. Not to mention my daughter hurt her foot so it was uncomfortable for her. The room did not have washcloths only hand towels & dry-off towels. The deadbolt on the door wasn’t working properly. The A/C didn’t cool as much as it should.

We stayed in July for a single night to catch a Houston Astros game. This hotel is a great spot for this reason, as Minute Maid Park is around the corner. My main concern for the low review was cleanliness. Our sheets and bed were covered in small bits of hair, resembling that of beard sheddings. Our sheets also contained a small pink-brown-hued spot. We only noticed this right before bed, upon our return from the game and late dinner (we never touched or sat on the bed when we first checked in, as we quickly changed and left for Minute Maid Park). We called the front desk (~1:00 AM), requesting a change of sheets. The employee mentioned that "they were the only one there, and to please be patient" as they were balancing all sorts of requests. After 30 minutes of no action, I decided to head downstairs myself to ask this request in person. The front desk person was there, loitering in the back office. Upon seeing me, I asked about my room's request. The employee seemed flustered and slightly surprised as if they had possibly forgotten. They quickly scrambled to a side room, left of the elevators, where they then handed me clean sheets and clean covers. Overall, for this reason, my stay was mostly poor. If you do stay here, I recommend you take a good look around your room and complain if you find anything not to your standards.
