This hotel, located about ten minutes south of Houston Hobby airport is in an area with several other hotels (Hampton, Staybridge, Holiday Inn) and competes favorably on all accounts. There are numerous restaurants within walking distance. The hotel is extremely clean and appears almost brand new. Hallways are wide and well lit (but with soft light rather than harsh flourescents)
On checkin my room key didn't work. Came down for a second and the front desk employee told me if it happened again call from the courtesy phone by the elevator. When it did happen again (dead battery in the keypad) I called and he brought up a keycard to another room so as not to delay me further. Very well done.
Room was extremely comfortable -- pretty much HGI standard, nothing special. Shower, no bathtub (which I prefer). Lots of channels on the television. Don't think I heard a sound all night. Breakfast was fantastic. I have no complaints at all. If they were all this good I wouldn't have any need for tripadvisor.com
Stay without fear!
