Ceiling mirrors and the large wall mirror sure takes the winning cake for this motel. Hourly-rate availability makes this establishment a great place to rest and get away from the busy Houston traffic. Location is a bit distant from the busy city, but it is not far either. I enjoy coming here to bring one-night stands and watching ourselves in the aforementioned mirrors makes our time enjoyable to say the least.
Nice and quiet for the two nights of stay. I would definitely stay again
Spend one night there with my family!! It was clean and have enough towels in the bathroom!!! I will definitely go back
First visit but room was nice clean with " no musty smell " like some places I've visited almost sure will visit again
I stayed at this Motel and I did enjoy my stay. The room was a good size room it was very clean. It was a good stay better than other motels recommended.
The people are slightly different and very rude it is always empty I came in late at night... and I only wanted to stay about 6 hours due to the bus is not running and they wanted to charge me for a whole night which I thought was pretty ridiculous considering they do work on hourly room rates... I had to keep asking the night Clerk why they could not put me downstairs because I have a bad back kept trying to tell me if they were rented out but there was no cars in the parking lot then later told me that they were remodeling the downstairs rooms it's ridiculous to be charged $55 for a whole night worth of time for a lousy 5-6 hours... when I'm done staying at another one of their locations animals only charge $45 for 8-10 hrs, not a full nites stay...
Rooms always clean. Staff can be a little rude but it depends on who is working the desk. No complaints thou
Clean, safe and convenient.. minutes from the medical center and te NRG stadium.. management is super nice and staff are really friendly..
Mainly residential area with saddles & spurs at the American Cowboy Museum, plus Sims Bayou trails.
Curated spots travelers usually pair with a stay in Texas. Distances are rough real-world times, not straight-line.
