3-Star Hotels in Houston

I recently had the pleasure of staying at a youth hostel that truly stood out for its exceptional qualities. Nestled in a residential area, its location was incredibly convenient, offering a tranquil retreat just a bike ride away from the city center—less than 10 minutes to be exact. This made for peaceful nights, ensuring a restful sleep in a safe environment. The hostel is run by a delightful couple whose hospitality knew no bounds. They were not only eager to assist with any issues that arose but also went above and beyond by providing bicycles. This thoughtful touch significantly enhanced my mobility around Houston, allowing me to reach various destinations swiftly. What set this hostel apart was the attention to detail and the array of complimentary amenities, including cookies, milk, cereal, coffee, and tea. The cleanliness and smart technology throughout the house contributed to a seamless stay, making it the best hostel experience I've ever had. The bathroom towels folded into swan shapes were a testament to the owners' dedication to detail, adding a touch of elegance and care. The warmth of the place was akin to being at home, with the owners always ready for a chat, eager to answer questions, and share their stories and experiences. A highlight for me was the world map on the living room wall, where guests could pin their home countries—a fun and interactive way to connect with fellow travelers. In summary, this hostel was more than just a place to stay; it felt like a home, or perhaps more accurately, a homestay. It's undoubtedly the best hostel I've ever stayed in globally, blending the comfort of a home with the adventurous spirit of a hostel.

I recently stayed at this hotel and overall had a pleasant experience. The location was convenient, the staff was friendly and accommodating, and the room was clean and comfortable. However, I was a bit disappointed with the amenities, particularly the weight room. The weight room was small and outdated, with limited equipment and not well-maintained. As someone who enjoys working out during my travels, I found the lack of quality fitness facilities to be a downside. Despite this, I still enjoyed my stay at the hotel due to its other positive attributes. The on-site restaurant served delicious food, the complimentary breakfast was a nice touch, and the room service was prompt and efficient. If the hotel could invest in upgrading their weight room and fitness facilities, it would greatly enhance the overall guest experience. I would consider staying here again in the future, but hope to see improvements in this area.”

We stayed at Home2Suite during our last trip to Houston but it was the one at Pearland. We arrived at this one late in the night and the staff at the front desk was very friendly. However once we entered the lift, we were welcomed with a strong greasy smell. The hall way had rug that was clean but obviously old. The major concern was the room which had a hole in the ceiling inside the toilet dripping water all over the floor. The AC also wasn’t working well that even at 19 degrees Celsius, was still warm. Initial complain to the staff was met with no vacant room, that they were fully booked. We managed for the first three days because we were outdoors most of the time. The room was later changed to a more comfortable one. The other thing was the swimming pool. My kids really wanted to swim during our stay but the staff mentioned that some handle to the pool was broken and that it was closed. The breakfast was also good but with little varieties to choose from.

Everything was as expected. Free breakfast, laundry room and even better with suites and some day fast food restaurants in walking distance.

Spacious room

Breakfast was great. The room was clean and the facilities felt safe. I waited 30+ minutes to be checked in because no one was on the premises to do so and no one was answering the phone or text. I confirmed my reservation with the B and B several days in advance via phone and received no instructions regarding check-in. I found out later that I should have received an email/text with check-in instructions, but never did. Make sure you do. The room had a bed, a desk table and chair. No thermostat. There was a ceiling fan with a remote that didn't work, so no way to adjust temperature or turn the light off after you were in bed. I was just there one night and it got the job done, but won't return.

This trip was mainly for a business trip and a trip to NASA, so I rented a car for the whole trip. The hotel has a parking lot and the scenery outside the window is very good, especially at sunrise. The hotel here is relatively close to the highway entrance, so I went to Houston. Very convenient and quite quiet at night. There is a self-service washing machine and a swimming pool.

The hotel is located on the side of Highway 610, there will be road noise that needs to be considered. Getting in and out is not very convenient. There is a pit at the entrance and exit that needs to be passed at a low speed. Once you pass through the pit, it is the 610 side road with an average speed of 5,60 and heavy traffic. In addition, the traffic in Houston is relatively wild, and it is especially difficult to get out of the hotel. It took 3 minutes to have a chance to abduct it.

The guy at the front desk on April 8 at 7 am was mean. I asked him for 3 breakfast tickets as this booking was included. He said no because you got two only as this is hotel policy. I told him I have the email confirmation for it and showed him. He said what did you show me, I don’t need to look. This is hotel policy and didn’t want to talk to me. On April 9 at 7 am in the morning, the same guy gave me two tickets and told me that you can only eat it in the cafe, do not bring it to your room. I felt this guy was so mean. I heard a lady talked to this guy that there was something seems like poop inside the elevator. He just replied “no housekeeping now”. I feel this response is inappropriate to a hotel guest. Overall this guy worked in the front desk was horrible.

The elevator did not work so we had to use the stairs with our luggage. We had an elderly couple in our party. I had also paid for my trip through the booking company and I was charged again. I had to wait about 2wks until I was finally refunded.
