Courtyard by Marriott Houston NW/290 Corridor

I paid nearly $200 for one night at this hotel because it had such great reviews. The hotel itself isn't much to look at, it's an older building off gessner in a business area. The front desk was friendly and accommodating when the original room they gave us did not have a pull out bed as requested. The room itself was clean, however all around the hotel was not. There was a spilled beer in the elevator that smelled disgusting and my husband unfortunately dropped our babies pillow directly into the mess. I took my other son to the pool and there were towels and trash everywhere and bugs in the pool as if it hadnt been cleaned. It was also very loud, people slamming doors until midnight when we finally could get some sleep. The light in the bathroom was very dim and took 10 seconds to actually turn on. Positives were the bed and pillows were actually very comfortable and the sleep i did get was enjoyable. The room was clean and the linens were provided in the closet for the pull out bed. The bathroom was stocked with enough towels, a hair dryer, makeup remover wipes and full bottles of shampoo and conditioner attached to the shower wall. That was awesome. Would i stay here again? No, probably not unless it was dirt cheap to do so.

Overall our stay was good and work well for what we needed. The rooms were not really clean, there was mold growing on the carpet behind the bed, dead bugs in the bathroom, hair all in the shower/tub and black dirty when I tried to fill the tub to bathe my toddler. There were only 2 towels but they brought us plenty when we notified them. We would stay there again if needed but hope to find our room a little cleaner next time.

When i got to the hotel i was greeted by the hostess. She took very good care of me. She was friendly and very helpful. I will definitely recommend this hotel to all my friends, family, and business colleagues.
