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!

Medical stay
Husband's surgery was scheduled and easier to stay before and after due to length of travel to and from home. Have stayed here before and will stay again. Most of the upgrades they are making are nice - still wish they had some type of shelf in the shower and that they had left a lid on the toilet instead of just an upgraded seat but...
