We stayed at this hotel on our trip from New Orleans to Houston. The hotel was very conveniently located with easy access to and from the major roads. The hotel is not situated near any particular attractions, but it is located along a main road with shops and more nearby. The hotel itself is somewhat dated, but everything was functioning. Unfortunately, the fitness room did not meet expectations; for example, the treadmill was out of order. On the positive side, there was easy parking at the property and a quick check-in and check-out process.

Absolutely disgusting hotel, non responsive staff, loud work crew guests drinking outside of your window after 10:30 at night! Horrible breakfast. Filthy rooms. Manager refuses to speak to you. They're turning this into a nasty extended stay dive. FYI, they keep the pool locked, look but don't touch!
