We have been using this hotel for the last 10 years every time I come to Houston. The staff is always friendly. The atmosphere is always close cozy and feels like a perfect place for couples to stay. It’s always affordable and it is so close to the Medical Center with easy roads to quickly get there, and you are in a central location to head to Galveston for a day or even to outlying areas like Pearland and back to the hotel for an easy day trip.
