Liked: Cleanliness
The property was being renovated (Feb25) but it didn't very much interfere with the stay. Information about using the tram (how to use and where to buy tickets) which is only one block away would be helpful. Only 4 tram stops from the museum district and walking distance to NRG Stadium. So handy location at a good price, clean and friendly staff. I'd go back there

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property is undergoing renovations and things were missing in our room, such as a bedside table lamp. Other accessories in our room were dusty, even the towels. The hall floors were dirty and unkempt. The online pictures are deceiving as the rooms display the "finished" product, but that is not what they look like right now. Management will not refund or do anything.

The first room we were put in had an old smell and it had an adjoining door (which I do not like unless I request it) and the Tv only had 1 channel, I voiced my concerns and they moved us to a much nicer room, very friendly and helpful staff, I would go back

Zero common sense and absurd "policy".

I reserved 3 rooms. I assigned different names for each room. One of the guests could not make it until much later. They would not release the room without him being present and showing ID. Absurd! Manager wouldn't budge. There were 2 guests in that room, so the guest present didn't have his room! I have never had such ridiculous, non-sensical experience. I couldn't get the room I reserved and I paid for!!! Also, dirty (under renovation and it shows), broken headboard, power plugs not working, and one of the worse breakfasts I have had (how much can one dilute juices and still label them juices? Really?)
