I had a 22 hour lay over in Houston on my way home. I did not want to spend it on the airport floor so went looking for the most affordable hotel within a few mile radius of the airport. My criteria were simple: warm shower, clean room, comfortable bed, low cost. This hotel was all of the above. I paid less than $50. The bed was very comfortable, the shower was warm and the room was clean. It even had HBO and free WiFi. The staff were pleasant and there was bagels and cereal before the free shuttle to the airport the following morning. There is neither a restaurant nor bar in the hotel and nothing nearby but the gas station/truck stop next door. It is in an industrial area about 4 miles from the airport. The gas station had fresh fruit, pizza and I think chicken. Not fine dining but I also did not starve. I would recommend grabbing a bite at the airport and then heading over there to shower/sleep.
If stuck in Houston I would happily stay there again.
