Easy drive to airport rental car drop off for an early flight out during the week. Looking at the traffic on the freeway made me really appreciate my decision. Room was larger than expected and tons of TV/Movie options.

We were checked in very efficiently and highly impressed with the landscaping of the property. It was beautifully manicured and well lit which made me feel really safe. I had read reviews that said it was too loud, and while the property does sit next to the highway, once in the room it was quiet and no trouble at all. The room quality is probably the best budget friendly room I’ve booked. Extremely clean and well kept, I was happy to have a smart tv in the room where I could log into my streaming of choice. Will absolutely book again when looking to stay in the Huston area.

The manager was very friendly and helpful. The room was renovated and ha a big bathroom. For the price it was very good. But it is noisy because of the traffic on the freeway. Choose another location if you‘re noise sensitive.
