We keep coming back!
This was the second time my husband and I have stayed at Hotel Ylem. The hotel is only about an 8 minute drive to MD Anderson.
The staff are great. Always kind and helpful. Tony was a great bar tender.
The rooms are very spacious.
You do see some wear and tear but everything is clean.
The neighborhood has lots of food options and a Target and Kroger's right around the corner.
Breakfast was pancakes, bacon, eggs, cereal, muffins and other things. Yummy!
Just a few cons: the shower water takes FOREVER to heat up. Seriously, turn the shower on before you even have all of your things together and it may be warm when you step in.
A tray or table to eat on would be great instead of eating on the bed.
We had no clue how to use the coffee pot. Water kept leaking everywhere.
Shelves in the shower and a soap dish by the sink would be so helpful.
Lamps on the bedside tables would great!
Besides these things, we would definitely stay here again and would recommend to anyone.

MD Anderson patient
I have breast cancer and am a patient of MD Anderson. I love staying at this hotel as it is close to the hospital and we are familiar with all the restaurants close by.
The elevator was broken this time and there was no shelf in shower to place shampoo, soap and washcloth.
Staff is super friendly and helpful.
Always stay at this hotel.

Hotel staff was very nice and even alert and friendly during my 3:30am check out! Hotel is a bit tired but artsy and fun! I didn’t have a lamp in my room but there was enough lighting. Overall… I’ll stay there again!

Highly Over Rated
If you want a hot shower, don't stay here. I also learned that you cannot believe Hotels.com's rating. They were not even close. Not a place I will stay again.

Ehh
The hotel is a great distance to NRG. They provided two towels for four guests. There was no security lock on the door. The breakfast was gross with the coffee super thick and the eggs rubbery. The bartender didn’t show up so that wasn’t an option. The tv did have direct tv.

Awful!!
Hotel was not clean but the worst thing was the smell of both our room and our son’s room. It was so musty and moldy smelling that it made my eyes, nose and throat burn. Our sheets felt damp so I slept with long pants and long shirt first night. They changed sheets 2nd night and they were better. Employees clearly were not happy with their jobs. Probably embarrassed and defeated from constant complaints. When we asked if breakfast was good, girl at desk got wide eyed and said “well they changed some things and we haven’t been getting so many complaints. They had a bar in lobby but it was closed because bartender quit. First time to Texas to see the Lions Texans game. Terrible experience. Thank God the lions won.

Checkin and check outwas efficient and i was allowed to arrive early and leave later due to medical appointments. They scheduled and paid for Uber rides within 3 miles to my doctor's appointments since they didn't have cortesy transportation onsite. Tne front desk clerks were very nice. Small low budget upgrades were done to the floor and shower area of my room. However, this hotels needs massive upgrades to compete in the local market. My room smelled horrible. The bedding was old. The bed was uncomfortable. The walls and A/C appeared to lack any maintenance in years. I called to my room cleaned the 2nd day, but noone ever showed. When i called back, they apologized, but only sent towels. This was my worst hotel experience. If every order nice hotel was not full near my doctor's location, i most definitely would have checked out the 1st day.

Great hotel
We had a great stay. Very interesting hotel but we really liked the vibe. It was almost 11 pm when we arrived and it was still a very easy going check in process. We had no wait at all. The bed was comfortable and my husband said the breakfast was decent. I couldn’t eat because I was having surgery this morning. All in all it was a great hotel and we would stay there again.
