AC not turned on.

The AC was completely off when we first arrived in our room. I understand saving some money but Texas in June and being on the top floor they should've had it on at least to 75 degrees or so. We went out to dinner and when we got back it was still fairly warm in the room. Not happy.

Excellent value!

Fantastic place to stay after a full day partying in Kemah. Hotel is excellent value. Rooms show a bit of wear and tear. Otherwise, room very clean, very comfortable bed, no roaches, and lots of space.

Expedia confirmed our visit, but the hotel had no record of our reservation. They offered new rooms but at double the price that I booked on Expedia. We were given 20 minutes to make a decision. He said it is now 30 minutes and we have been holding these rooms for you. I need a decision. I was on the phone with Expedia trying to figure out the mess. We walked out.

Disappointed

Check in was great. Good customer service. The room conditions were not the best. Outlets were falling out of the wall, floors were dingy, one bed was not comfortable, could feel the mattress springs, and towels were dingy. The noise all night of people coming and going was annoying. We didn't sleep much. We will not stay here again.
