This hotel has been amazing the last 2 times we have stayed here. And will be over the next several years as my husband gets medical help there. The staff is great, the rooms as well as the whole facility are clean and in great condition. It seems like it might be an older holder but they maintain it very well. The prices are very reasonable and they are very compassionate towards medical patients. Which is very appreciated. They over Uber services to the medical building which is also so helpful. Takes one less burden away from us. I honestly can’t say enough about their place.

Rooms were pretty clean. The bottom of our curtains and carpet had stains either from water or something I don’t wanna think about.. Headboard was detached from wall and leaned. There was not a nightstand on one side of the bed. A comfortable chair would have been nice. Pillows were flat. Close to MD Anderson. Staff was amazing.
