Wanderstay Houston Hostel, hotel in Houston

Offering air-conditioned rooms in the Houston Museum District district of Houston, Wanderstay Houston Hostel is 1.1 miles from Texas Southern University.

The hostel is fine. You get what you pay for. Walkable to restaurants but near the highway so the location is not great. There's a microwave, that's good.

The Layover, hotel in Houston

The Layover is located in Houston, 4.7 miles from NRG Park and 5.4 miles from NRG Stadium.

THE PRICE, but I thought I'd at least be safe. I paid the last bit of money I had for this reservation and extended my time to be safe in a strange city. I would've been safer in a homeless shelter or simply lying out on the streets of Sunnyside, Houston! My Life n Sanity are More precious to Me than the money I lost.

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.
