The room was spotless. Yay housekeeping! The bathroom counter facing, however, was actually peeling off and other bathroom and kitchen features were dated and worn.

Heritage Place Houston Brookhollow
I stay at this property frequently due to it's proximity to my client while I am in town. During weekdays the price is fair for location and what you get. Weekends I avoid because price goes up/value goes down. I appreciate that it is here, just wish it were a bit cleaner.
