I'm currently at this hotel, and don't understand all the bad reviews. The check-in was quick and pleasant, the room is clean and adequately stocked (although the towels are a bit thin), the furniture is nice (looks fairly new), and the bed comfortable. The linens on the bed are clean and acceptable.
The immediate block surrounding the hotel is industrial, but if you go 3 or 4 blocks in any direction, it becomes a quite pleasant residential area. There is a big selection of restaurants in the area, but if you prefer, there is a large Kroger Superstore within 2 miles so you can just stock up the in-room fridge and use the microwave to heat things up.
I would definetly stay here again, and would recommend to friends and clients (I am a travel agent) that need a nice, inexpensive place to stay that is close to downtown Houston, without being right in downtown.
