My regular hotel was fully booked as were most of the better hotels in Houston. I found this one on Orbitz at a good rate. My taxi drove by the place three times before we found it. Their sign was not on and the place looks like an ordinary residential building. The desk clerk said that they were having wiring problems. Check in was quick and I walked around the complex and found my room. The key did not work. I returned to the front desk for a replacement key and it was then that the clerk noticed that I had reserved a non smoking room. He gave me a key for the last non smoking room available.
When I opened the door to my new room, I tried to turn on a light by using the switch at the doorway. Nothing happened. Using my suitcase, I propped open the guest room door so that I could see to reach the switch accross the room that turned on the kitchen light. This light and the light in the bathroom were the only light available. The switch at the door was apparently intended to operate a table lamp at the bedside, but this lamp had been removed from the room.
This was a very small room. It was barely adequate for an overnight stay. I can't emagine staying here ofr an extended period.
