I was not expecting the cleanliness of the room. Past times that I have booked cheaper rooms, it had something wrong with the room. This will be a go to for future visits.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We wanted a motel close to the baseball field in downtown Houston. The room was clean and comfortable.The only two things that I pointed out to the desk clerk were that the stopper in the bathtub didn't work and the entry door seal or weather strip piece was broken and allowed a big gap at the entry door bottom for bugs to enter in the room.

Relax

Overall, I enjoyed my stay here. The motel is older but newly renovated. You can tell the owner takes great care of the property. Our room was VERY CLEAN. We didn’t expect maid service to come through, but they did and did a thorough job. I like that Walmart is right next door and everything was easy to get to. I would definitely stay here again.

The room was nice, the Tv was excellent size and user-friendly and the refrigerator and microwave looked new. The bathroom and shower had new tile and were beautiful. My regret was that I already cleaned up before getting there and didn't use the shower. One of the nicest rooms I stayed in in a while.
