Courtyard By Marriott Houston Kemah

The room was quite minimal and showed signs of wear. The bathroom only had one shower. There were no details about the toilet or vanity, but there was a light switch that seemed to be nonfunctional. Additionally, there were no coffee pods in the room. When we called the front desk to inquire about this, they told us we needed to get dressed and come down to request some. During check-in, another guest had asked the same question. Breakfast was served until 11 o'clock, but when we arrived at 10:45, all the chairs were on the tables, and there was no food available.

The hotel is beautifully decorated and has a great location, but they really need to improve their cleaning standards. In my first room, the television didn't work and the shower was not clean. I moved to another room where the TV did work, but the Wi-Fi was very slow. Additionally, there were long hairs all over the bathroom and driveway, and the floors clearly hadn’t been cleaned, as I could see dirt accumulating in the corners. I requested someone to come and vacuum and clean the space, but it was unclear what was actually done while I was away, as the room looked the same when I returned—only new towels had been provided. I think it's time to give up on Marriott, as this seems to be a consistent issue regardless of the location. Upon arrival, there was something spilled in the lobby area that remained there until the next day, even though we checked in early. I can only give it a fair rating for its location.

1. The safe in my room was broken. 2. The coffee machine was also out of order. 3. I was surprised to find there was nowhere to hang towels in the bathroom. 4. The air in the common areas was so still and suffocating that I experienced a panic attack. 5. The humidity on the coast caused the table in my room to become so damp that I had to wipe it down with a cloth, worrying if my electronics would be okay. 6. The writing light was broken. 7. The chair provided was too small, outdated, and uncomfortable. 8. The platform bed, with its lack of proper support, left my back in pain. 9. The air conditioning was set to an extremely cold temperature when I arrived, but soon the room became too warm. Also, be aware that breakfast is not included; you have to pay for it at their bistro, which felt like a letdown. Additionally, they only sell Pepsi and don’t provide Coke, so bring your own if that’s what you prefer. Overall, I have a strong dislike for this hotel, and I regret my choice to stay here. The staff at the bistro were pleasant, including Kevin, the writing manager, who kindly brought me a kettle. However, I had to go to the lobby for assistance because the phone in my room only rang endlessly without answer. In short, this hotel feels like a poorly designed IKEA project. Be prepared for ongoing construction noise from the road outside as well, although I understand that’s not the hotel’s fault. I certainly won’t be returning.

Great and nothing like before! the rooms are clean and modern furnished. location is perfect for walking to the promenades and restaurants. the opposite is safe and fire gun 100 meters away. well lit parking and clean. pool is small but clean and not overcrowded. bar area is beautiful and there are seating options both inside and outside. the personal was attentive and friendly. this place is a good choice for the opposite and close to everything they need!

Very nice large room. The downside is there isn't a couch in the room or a sink, except the bathroom sink. Close to the beach, but not walking distance. You'll have to drive at least 5 miles down the road to get to a public entrance for the beach.
