We stayed at the Marriott on a night we had to arrive at the airport for a very early flight. The hotel is just a short drive to the airport. I was only sorry we had to leave so early! The hotel itself and the rooms were very nice, the beds were incredibly comfortable, and the staff members were very friendly. We ate at the hotel restaurant, and the food was excellent. I will stay here the next time I am in Houston!

This hotel is located at the northern intersection of the 8 and 45 in Houston. It is close to IAH and business in the North-Central Houston area. My limited interaction with staff was excellent (I arrived at midnight and there were three or four staff members present as I walked in; all were kind and polite). The rooms were fairly utilitarian but, as compared with many other hotels of this class, accomodations were upgraded: the bed was not typical hotel stock (relatively firm but still comfortable), a desk that was convenient for notebook computer users (with a lower part that adjusted and was separate from the upper part of the desk, allowing the user to find a comfortable place for themself and the computer), and marble accessories in the bathroom. Internet service is still $10 per day, which is absurd when other Marriott properties include free internet service, but hard wired (and assumingly wireless) connections were available. Parking was free and lighting was plentiful in the parking lot. This property exceeded my expectations and needs (sans the internet charges).

I stayed one night here. The hotel is actually in a pretty good location - - right at I-45 and the Sam Houston Tollway. You can zoom right down I-45 into dowtown in 15 - 20 Minutes if there is no traffic. The area around the hotel is mostly office buildings. There is Greenspoint Mall which is not very nice and I don't recommend it at all for travellers. So, you'll need to drive to get to nice restaurants, shopping, clubs, etc.

The hotel is about 15 minutes to Intercontinental Airport which is very convenient.

This hotel is nice, but the decor is dated. My room was very large but the a/c unit was more like the type you see in budget hotels - - essentially a window unit.

While the room was not particularly attractive, it was very clean and comfortable. Everything was in good repair. The bed was very comfortable.

Service was uniformly prompt, polite, and professional.

I received a rate of $66.00 per night on the hotel's website.

Overall, an excellent value if you're willing to commute into Houston to do things and don't mind the unappealling decor.

I've stayed here several times and have always been pleased. We love the beds. I also love their thermostat and, this last time, the Bath and Bodyworks Orange and Ginger products. Good room service and very good breakfast buffet.
