The TownePlace Suites is less than a 10 minute drive from Hobby Airport, perfect for a late or early flight. We were told to call the day of arrival and were instructed to walk to Zone 5 and call the hotel for a Lyft ride. We did so and were sent a link to watch for our ride share, provided free by the hotel in place of a shuttle. My local Houston friend had warned that Hobby Airport surroundings are not a very safe area, so we used DoorDash for our meal (Ninfa’s has excellent TexMex) and didn’t leave the hotel. It did appear that the surroundings were primarily other motels and hotels. We requested mobile checkin but were told this location requires checking in at the front desk. We had requested a quiet location on the reservation and the online checkin, but were told all quiet locations were already given out. They didn’t notice that we’d requested a late checkout, so I’m guessing they just didn’t check reservation requests. No mention made of our Marriott rewards status, but when I asked if we got anything for Lifetime Platinum, we were instructed to grab a water from the marketplace. Free breakfast didn’t have a ton of choices, but everything was extremely clean and neatly presented. I had two hard boiled eggs and two delicious oranges that were really flavorful. Oatmeal, cereal, milk, juice, coffee, pastries…the usual fare was offered. The room is modern but faced a very bright light and noise from the neighboring motel, but the second layer of rolldown blinds blocked most of it. My son always travels with a sleep mask and ear plugs, so slept fine. The room is quite small…no couch or comfy chair, but a kitchen table with four chairs and a very small efficiency with smaller fridge, microwave, sink, dishwasher. The only tv is on a side wall but levers out. Bathroom is also modern, but vanity is only large enough for one toiletry bag, Vanity and shelf are low quality MDF so show chips and wear. The price of points was low and the location ideal for a night’s sleep near the airport, before heading to Galveston for our cruise. Many of the other Marriott branded hotels near Houston Hobby had crunchy reviews, so this seemed the best choice. I would stay again for a similar price and purpose.
