Went to an Astros home game and the Holiday Inn was an awesome choice for a place to stay. The hotel has a shuttle that took us to the stadium. The hotel is clean, has a good breakfast, and conveniently located downtown. There was no rooftop lounge/bar but that didn’t matter since there were other places close to the hotel. Will definitely stay here again.

They get you with fees. They do not tell you when you book. You get an email the day before telling y I i about the $100 per night incidental change paid up front, $25 per day parking fee. Then when you get there a $10 per night amenities fee. Someone will need to show me the amenities. The staff was lack luster and uninformed. The rooms are small the bathroom has zero counter space. This property is a 6 at best no way it's an 8.8.

Hotel was clean, but the rooms were a little more dated than I would have anticipated. The rooms were also very noisy, and several machines were out of order in the workout room. Overall, I expected more for the price I paid.
