Receptionist was friendly and made check in easy. Overall property and staff were amazing. I booked with a third party and changing reservation was a bit of a hassle as both Expedia and property were difficult to communicate together to authorize changes.

Pretty nice

Very unique hotel. Construction left very little parking. Hotel is small, but nice. You have to get towels at front desk as well as hair dryer. The ironing board was bent, but usable. Free popcorn was nice.

We enjoyed our stay. It was close to NGR Stadium and offered a shuttle. They are doing renovations, so I figure it will be nicer next time we stay. The staff was super friendly!

Booked my next stay already!

Room was clean and comfortable. Don’t judge the exterior appearance, they are currently doing some kind of exterior work. Inside is very nice and clean. Shuttle to and from NRG was a plus! Booked my next stay for June already!

This is the perfect spot for events at NRG with less than a mile walk. Plenty of eateries and a Target basically next door. The breakfast was good and check out the bar in the evenings. 24 hr coffee and water was a plus! Everyone was polite and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

I have no idea why this place is rated a 2 Star hotel. This place is great. The best part, by far, is the bartender. He goes by “T”. A true professional, gentleman, mixologist, and vibe creator. I was here for work and literally looked forward to hanging with “T” after 14 hour days.

I do not really want to give Ylem a 3 review--but the bed was not great, some of the furniture old and beat up, the breakfast was pretty meh. The staff were very nice, and the place was clean and is very convenient. And the price was right.

Not happy overall

Property was no at all what I seen on the photos. The toilet seat was broken. There were cracks in the wall, and there was a odor when I walked in the hallway and into my room.

Being remodeled- clean, large rooms. The bed is comfy. Located close to the medical district, which is why I was staying there, but also located next to a storage facility and apartments. I’ve is only located on 3rd floor. A few things are missing - towel bars/hooks and a security lock on the door. Relatively small hotel, which I like. Nice area for breakfast and playing games or just hanging out. I enjoyed my stay and would stay there again. Small parking lot, but parking is free.
