We enjoyed our stay. It was close to NGR Stadium and offered a shuttle. They are doing renovations, so I figure it will be nicer next time we stay. The staff was super friendly!

Booked my next stay already!
Room was clean and comfortable. Don’t judge the exterior appearance, they are currently doing some kind of exterior work. Inside is very nice and clean. Shuttle to and from NRG was a plus! Booked my next stay for June already!

Clean with a great location.
great location, the staff is very kind and nice. Overall the hotel and rooms are kept clean, no funny smells. Breakfast could be better. The lobby needs remodeling and new furniture. Maybe better lighting conditions in public spaces, some of them look a bit dark. Overall iit is a 9/10 if you are picky like me.

Safe and good location
Great safe location. The only thing I wasn't satisfied about is the refrigerator that's in the room. It puts a new meaning to "mini". You can't even put a 6 pack of drinks in it.

Pretty nice
Very unique hotel. Construction left very little parking. Hotel is small, but nice. You have to get towels at front desk as well as hair dryer. The ironing board was bent, but usable. Free popcorn was nice.

Ok for a quick trip
Construction going on outside but didn’t hear any noise. Hotel was ok. Only thing that would have been useful would have been a desk and work chair.
