Had a very short visit to this hotel. I was coming into Houston to stay with a friend, but since my plane was arriving late at night and I also had to rent a car, I decided to book a hotel room near the airport for one night, then leasurely head into town the next day.
Got a good deal, maybe because of the last minute reservation (the same day), or maybe because it was Saturday night.
Didn't try any of the hotel's facilities, just the room. Check-in was swift (not too many people checking in at 1am!). Judging from the parking lot the hotel was far from full, yet I was given a room right next to the equipment room. Too tired to complain.
Spacious room. The room was hot - the A/C was not running in the room. Tried the controls on the wall but couldn't get the cool air flowing. Called the front desk and was informed that the wall controls actually don't control much; the room has a window unit and the controls are directly on it. Opened the little door to reveal two unmarked knobs. A few test turns that one controls the fan speed. The other must be for temp; kept it the way it was and cooling begun.
Ready for bed. Comfortable pillows. But the A/C unit is VERY noisy, with occasional rattling sounds. Luckily for me I was tired enough to fall asleep, but not without ten or fifteen minutes of tossing.
Woke up the next morning. Very basic shower. It works fine, and that counts for a lot. The hotel provided shampoo only. The soap bar in the shower was used - first time it happens to me in 15 years of travel. The one near the sink was new and I used that one.
Check out was also swift.
I wouldn't stay there again - I think the hotel's management could have put me in a better room from the very begining, the hotel being mostly empty. Even so, while room location and amenities are things that can be resolved, the old A/C units are too noisy, even for watching TV. Will try another hotel next time.
