This is a nice little hotel within 15 minutes of NRG stadium. We enjoyed the comfy bed and the cable TV out of the Houston heat. A few blips were: no bartender at the bar, no room turn unless requested (we were not advised, not a big deal, we just asked for extra towels, and we were charged ten dollars for a replacement key card.

This was my husband's and my second time staying at the Yelm. It is always clean inside and out. The breakfast is great. They actually have a hot breakfast. My only suggestion would be to add a waffle option. However, the biscuits are absolutely delicious. It is such a convenient location. We are foodies. So, having several food options around was a huge bonus.
