Liked: Cleanliness
The property was being renovated (Feb25) but it didn't very much interfere with the stay. Information about using the tram (how to use and where to buy tickets) which is only one block away would be helpful. Only 4 tram stops from the museum district and walking distance to NRG Stadium. So handy location at a good price, clean and friendly staff. I'd go back there

Will never return!!!
We arrived at the hotel to find that the property was under construction that I was unaware of . There was no shuttle bus as listed . The room had a very weird smell in the beds headboard and foot boards are covered in stains. The headboards aren’t even attached to anything so the headboard was leaning on the bed . We ordered pizza and someone stole my order as the front desk lady knew who had my pizza because she watched the lady take it . There was loud music playing in the hall way and one lady dance with very little clothes on .

Could be great
This property shows a bit of wear and tear that makes it feel a little grimy in places. They are working on it and it is apparent that at one time it was quite swanky. The location is great for attending events at any of the Houston stadiums so that’s a big plus and they have free parking.

Not noisy unless you’re by louder people or they’re in the halls. Breakfast was awful. Desk girls working were nice, the breakfast attendants however stared us down heavily while trying to make our plates. I asked if I could help, she says no and proceeds to stare.
