Good Stay
A group of us travelled to Houston for a conference at a nearby hotel. The Suites was just around the corner from all the other hotels and not difficult to get to from the conference center or the airport. The biggest problem was the lack of housekeeping since it is an extended stay. When you are on vacation, you prefer that added little touch of having someone clean for you but there is no housekeeping really at all. You can change out sheets and blankets yourself with the front desk if you would like. The front desk doesn't stay open 24hrs which is also a detriment, BUT I did like the open "pantry" as well as the free DVD rentals. The internet was aslow and shotty connection though.

Conveniently located
I had to go to MD Anderson for a checkup. I chose to stay at this location because it was located by the Galleria and only 10 minutes from the medical center(without traffic). We usually stay in the medical center but always have to put up with the noise of sirens. Even though this hotel is located by the highway there was no traffic noises or sirens. It was great.

Nice Place
I thought the room was very nice and the staff was very friendly. I was in town for a conference in the galleria area-so the location was great and the price was just right. It was really all we needed for a 2 night stay. You can see it from the freeway but, it was a tad tricky to get to...but they may have been why it was priced so well.

Test taking trip
It was like a one bedroom apartment. Two TVs, living, dining, and bedroom for a great price. I was really pleased, and that a company believes in the honor system for the convenience store.
