Had a standard room 2 king size bed (room 219) super big and very clean!! We were impressed they look highly new! Easy check in check out ! Was allowed to check in earlier than 3pm. Hot Breakfast was nice! There’s a pool but didn’t use it. Easy way to Highway! Not very far from our destinations! Movie theater and restaurants around it /walking distance! We paid $266 for two weekend nights! I would definitely stay again!
It’s exactly what you would expect from a Holiday Inn Express; nice clean and comfortable rooms. “I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express” certainly applies to this as I slept very comfortably. The bed is a little firm for my taste, but I was able to find a pillow I could relax with. The parking is a little sparse if the hotel fills up or somebody parks their large duelly truck with trailers. The breakfast is nothing special, but it serves the purpose; as does the fitness center. If you are wanting to be right down in the action of downtown, this is not the hotel for you; but if you don’t mind a bit of commute, this hotel works perfectly.
There is no problem with the hotel. But the location is little remote though it is inside city region very difficult to see people outside after 6 pm. So for natural walkers this is not a right place. Breakfast is good but using all plastic plates, spoons could be improved.
I stayed here twice; the first time was the first week in October, and the second time was the first two weeks in November. The first time, the lowest level of the hotel had been hit hard by flooding, though the business center and dining area were useable, the laundry and gym were not. One elevator was out of use as well. I stayed on the third floor, and found my room to be clean and inviting. The desk clerks were happy to point me in the direction of local restaurants and were friendly and professional, even though their hotel wasn't functioning as usual. The second time, repairs were underway, with headway being made on the first floor rooms. The laundry and gym were still under construction, but the elevator did get fixed a few days before I left. I was on the second floor this time, and again, my room was clean and inviting every day when I arrived after work. Arron, the desk clerk I saw most often, was great. He greeted me each day on my way in/out and suggested some great places to eat. If I were to have a complaint, then it would be the towels. There is a card in the bathroom asking guests to reuse their towels by hanging them up, and as I was staying for 1-2 weeks at a time, I did hang my towel, but each day I was given new towels, and my used ones were whisked away. First world problems, I know, but that beautiful snowy owl on the card started looking at me in a very accusing manner and all I could do was shrug and say, Don't look at me! I'm trying! There really isn't a good view in any direction, as it's located in kind of a strip mall (There is a Chili's and a movie theatre, as well as an Asian buffet, Cold Slab ice cream joint and Goodwill store within 1-2 minute walking distance).
Some things can’t be fixed, but this hotel is REALLY close to railroad tracks. Yes....they do go at ALL hours! I will not stay here again for that main reason. The front staff needs a MAJOR customer service overhaul!! There were 3 staff on a Tuesday morning/afternoon, while I was coming & going, not ONE of them said anything to me. Not just that day, but other days as well. Other than the movie theater & Chili’s there isn’t really any place to walk & shop. I have also noticed that as they are remodeling there are no bathtubs, just a shower.
Location is good. TV and rooms are large. But beds are moistured/sticky, If one need a internet, then this is not the place! Night shift staffs are not trained well. I had to move due to bad internet connection.
Stay in quite a few Holiday Inns and this one has recent updating and was nice. Room was clean with new furniture (not sure what the longevity will be with the new updates, was fine for this trip but seems like some of the updating may not be the most sturdy). Here is what was the best part, the "standard" HI free breakfast was actually much better than usual. Fresh and good options. Don't expect great views but the location was good with many food options only a short drive from the property. All the staff I interacted with were polite, friendly and professional. Hi end amazing property, no but would definitely stay here again.
I was told all about how Houston can have rough areas. This hotel, however, was in a decant area. I did not have any issues during my extended stay. The hotel essentially shares an area with a movie theater, Chili's Restaurant, and some other businesses. The rooms are newly renovated, and overall the appearance of the hotel is nice. The complimentary breakfast is pretty good. The only reason I did not give this location 5 stars is because of the staff. When I first arrived on a Friday around 5:30pm I had to wait for several minutes and had to yell to the back office to be serviced. Additionally, the fitness center was 84 degrees so I asked the front desk to turn down the thermostat (there was a lock box over it) and the front desk employee rudely stated she had never done that before and that she "guessed she would have to figure it out." I didn't experience the southern hospitality with the staff, but the hotel is a nice place to stay if you're in the area.
Unfortunately i am unable to rate this property due to an issue we experienced before i arrived on the morning of June 5, 2016 please allow me to explain: My partner of 25-yrs is an employee of IHG at a Candlewood Suites. He placed a reservation for us 1-month ago as we were attending a friends 50th birthday bash. Since another employee called off he being the overnight MOD "manager-on-duty" being that another employee called off he had to work that shift & he sent me on to attend the event at 1-pm & he would drive in later after 9-pm. So he faxed authorization to the property to allow me to check-in 1st as this is the protocol per IHG policies & as instructed by his G.M & the Owner of our Candlewood. Within 5-minutes of faxing he received a phone call from the property in east Houston, a lady's name of Ashley who advised she was the overnight MOD there, & she was puzzled what the fax was for. Manny my business partner explained the situation. & Ashley told him: Oh No Sir, he will not be allowed to check-in, only you can. After a short argument, Manny then asked her politely to then change it to Friends & Family Rate, then you MUST allow him to check-in, & Ashley replied, No Sir, the F&F rate is forbidden here. He didn't feel that she was acting in IHG Protocol so keeping his cool, he kindly advised her too just Cancel the reservation & we will rebook with one if our other sister properties that will be complaint with policies & he hung up. (we own other flags "brans" & booked about 5-miles further down & checked-in without any issues)
Cannot recommend this hotel. Bed is comfortable, TV is big, AC works well. But it is 20 feet from 1-10 and the rooms facing the highway are INCREDIBLY LOUD. I stay in highway-adjacent Houston hotels all the time, and it is the worst soundproofing I have ever encountered. I left my first room instantly and begged for a room facing away from the road. Fortunately they had one. It then became a pleasant hotel experience. But the simple fact is half of people that stay here each night are paying $150+ to essentially live with 10 wheelers in their bedroom. That is a lousy gamble. Do you want to take it?
