I was sympathizing with the other posters regarding the Microtel Houston. Cheap - yes, Clean-no. The curry smell described is accurate and at times the desk staff used the lobby as their living room (it also is the continental breakfast nook). Burn holes on the window cushion, generally below average cleanliness. At times I preferred to stand in the room rather than sit on a chair. We only spent 1 night, else I think we may have complained. If looking for a complete bargain, but not concerned about cleanliness--this is the place for you.
