Room was good. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was an added bonus. The only complaint would be people slamming doors all night long. But, overall would definitely stay again.

Convenient location, felt safe, free parking. Clean enough, sofa in room was stained so we didnt sit on it. Wish they had more variety at breakfast but it's free so I'm not complaining too much about that. The staff was friendly and responsive to my two requests during our stay - they provided 3 bath towels even though 4 adults were on the reservation but promptly brought another to the 3rd floor upon my request via phone. The bedside charger didnt work on one of the beds, and the room itself is lacking a trash can in the bathroom. I also called the desk to ask about guest wifi ...its written on your key card envelope fyi 😉 decent value 👌

There seems to be an unpleasant odor in the hallway and room. The bathroom did not have hooks to hang clean clothes and towels. And shower area did not have anything to place containers with shower gel and shampoo. The bathroom was clean though.

Our room was clean and quiet, the bed and bedding were comfortable. Everything worked as it should. Close to MD Anderson, which was a plus for us. We have stayed here several times over the last few months, and have always enjoyed it.

We arrived about 45 mins early, and it was no issue checking in at 2:15 pm. Plenty of free parking was available. The outdoor sign could use a replacement, but the decor inside the lobby was very welcoming and positive sayings were all over the walls. The receptionist was super friendly. The “mailboxes” outside the rooms added a neat touch, and the room was very clean and decorated in a unique antique-style. For example, it had an old timey phone, refrigerator, etc. The bed was clean and soft and perfect after a long night attending the Texas Bowl. The following morning, we ate a small breakfast before departing and the options were plenty to include eggs, biscuits, pancakes, French toast, cereal, juice, and coffee, to mention a few. I would definitely stay here again.

My only complaint is that the room they gave me was on the first floor at the very end. It was close to the exit side door so easy access to my vehicle. The issue was the noise that came being in that room. Every time a person went out/in that door it slammed very loudly, woke me out of my sleep every time. I would have preferred to walk through the front door if it meant my room not being close to an exit door. Some kind of cushion or stopper would be nice to prevent that.
