Excellent Service
It turned out to be a great launching pad... We checked in early, which is often a problem at other hotels, but not here. They just found a room that was ready, which also turned out to be a free upgrade, and put us in it. The room was much more than I would have expected, with wet bar, fridge, microwave, etc., on top of the usual stuff like coffee maker, etc. I don't know if that's for every room, or just the 'upgraded' one we ended up with. Anyway, while there were some signs of wear, they were extremely minor and much less than I've seen in many times more expensive hotels. We're the type of travelers where the hotel is basically a place to come back to at bed time and store the bags. So, our expectations are not real high - basically just a clean room. With that said, however, they really exceeded anything we could have expected. Service was simply top notch and personal. The desk guy even came out from behind the desk, walked us over to the brochure stand, and started pulling his recommendations for us. We never did try the breakfast or the indoor pool, but both were available. The breakfast area looked clean, well lit, and inviting. The pool was in a separate room just off the lobby. the location was just about perfect as well, close (but not too close) to the interstate, close to NASA, and a short drive to Kemah. We'll be back.
