Air Conditions wind were so dusty so I got a sore throat.The hostel change air conditions filter everyday because the air conditions work 24 hours a day. When I check in nobody in the front i was waiting 15 minutes. The direction is OK! 滞在中部屋のエアコンで喉を痛めました。エアコンの風がほこりっぽくてそれが原因です。エアコンは24時間動いていますが、フィルターを変える形跡がないです。チェックイン際、フロントに人がいなくて15分ほど待たされました。到着後にホステルに電話もしましたが転送になっていなくてフロントの電話が鳴り響いていました。立地は問題ありません、バス便もいいです。

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
There are hidden extra charges when you are checking in. Expedia was kind enough to reimburse for those charges. I have been to many hostels. This was the worse experience. The female dorm is tiny to fit in 6 people. The staff don’t clean the shared bathroom area daily. It’s also in the middle of nowhere, so you can’t walk to major sights. The Houston transit is very infrequent so it’s hard traveling anywhere from the Hostel.

Overall a decent place but the bunk beds in my room were metal and not very sturdy. They creaked and groaned anytime anyone rolled over or moved. That made it hard to sleep. Also the water pressure in the shower was very weak.

Best Hostel stay!!!

It was a great stay! The staff was very helpful and friendly. The shared room (hostel) was clean and very comfortable. I enjoyed the outdoor patio and swimming pool. I have recommended it to all my family and friends. When in Houston, I will stay there again.

I loved that it was in a historic home, the neighborhood was beautiful and the rooms were fairly up to date. The 8 person room I stayed in wasn't actually in the home but in the guest house in the back. Loved that they had a pool, outdoor sitting area, hammocks, inside had computer access, a pool table, and kitchen plus eating area. For the amenities you get it was a great place to stay. I only had two issues with my stay, I'm short and plus size and they assigned me a top bunk. Like really? Come on! My only other issue is not their fault, but more of a warning for light sleepers. Bring ear plugs, if you have someone who snores don't expect to actually sleep!

Spend $10 more and stay at the other hostel

First read all the information if you’re not a Hostel member there is an extra fee of $4. Idk what for. You’re not staying in the AC building you see, you are staying in a building behind the building that is not like the photos. Beds were trash, pillows are horrible, dirty bathroom & the wall AC only cools the side where you are at. I have stayed at plenty of hostels and this by far was HORRIBLE

Ett av de bästa hostel jag bott på!

Detta var ett av de finaste hostel jag bott på. Nöjd med rum, säng, badrum som var bekväma och rena. Det finns många allmänna ytor att vara på för och träffa andra resande, spela biljard eller om man vill hänga någon annanstans än på rummet. Frukosten var bra, basic med toast och flingor (allt lite för sött i min smak) men bra med frukost som ingår. Området är så mysigt, det är ett av de finare bostadsområdena i Houston. Väldigt nöjd med hela upplevelsen! Rekommenderar verkligen boendet.
