Holiday Inn Houston Downtown by IHG
Simple hotel, Clean and comfortable. Great value. Check-in good. Desk manger very nice. Only odd thing was the elevator. One was for staff and one guests but when we called the elevator, the staff one always came so we used it. No big deal. Would definitely stay again.
