Budget Host, Hempstead Inn

First of all, I was grateful to the staff for accommodating me, despite my very late arrival. I arrived at the hotel at about 1:30 AM and the staff processed me in.

Okay hotel only upstairs have to unlock doors to get your luggage in

It's was what you'd expect for the $$. Nice people running the place. Quiet and clean enough for me.

I wish one of the criteria used to judge the Budget Host Hempstead Inn was value; in that category, they'd receive a "5." The fact of the matter is that this motel is in a bit of an out-of-the-way location (about a 10 mile, 20 minute drive from most of Houston's attractions) -- but it's a NICE location (i.e., totally safe). Furthermore, it's a convenient location in certain respects; there's a Burger King next door and a little convenience store within easy walking distance. The place is run in a sensible, considerate manner. They have (but don't advertise) a typical, modest, "continental breakfast" for their guests (orange juice, milk, coffee, cold cereal, and packaged pastries) available for free in the lobby each morning -- and they end its availability at a ridiculously early hour (as certain other motel chains do). The beds are extremely comfortable, the rooms are well maintained, there are TV's, microwaves, refrigerators, blow dryers, iron & ironing boards, complimentary soap (bath and facial), shampoo, and even body lotion. If you're still in your room around the sensible 11 am checkout time on an extended stay, the front desk may call you to ask if you need room service; you don't have to worry about a maid using her key to barge in at an inopportune moment.

I thought everything was very nice. Very quite and comfortable sleep. In a very nice area.

Needed a place to sleep overnight. Not bad for the price.

Close to Gallaria shopping centre fairly close to town. Helpful staff let us check in early one off but appreciated after 22hr bus ride. Room spacious clean comfortable.

Very nice just keep telling me to get out nexus time to live

You get what you pay for. The room is older needs to be repaired and updated. But for the price and location it was good. Front desk was helpful when needed and stayed for an extra day.

Staff was great room was nice just didn't like the sound of the train going by
