We have a new crew hotel in IAH. Yelp review was not good but others seem ok.

I like it, so far. Will have to venture out today and see what else is around..........

This post coming to you from someone who's already stayed there:
There's not much around the hotel other than interstates, other hotels, and office buildings.
Maybe I missed a great hole-in-the-wall close by . . . I hope. The restaurant at the hotel isn't bad though.

Yep, following my previous post, the exploratory search of the surrounding area was....less than inspiring. The hotel is nice enough....but there isn't crap to do other than be at the hotel. So.....eh, not sure how much was gained, overall, from our move.

Outstanding... really looking forward to 27 hours there next week.

This wasn't an even trade. I'm chalking it up as a loss, and further proof that, no matter what hotel we have, the move to a new one is worse. The only gains I've seen is adding a long layover to a station we didn't have one at before, like PHL. Is the new long layover in DTW any better than the old one?

Exactly. The old IAH hotel had stuff around it, you just didn't want to visit it all alone at night. Now, you cannot leave the hotel, even as a group in the middle of the day, because there's nothing to leave for.

I too think this long/short layover stuff was a bad move.

The new layover in DTW is nice. There is a good steak house but very pricey. I did not get to walk around but I was told there was stuff around. Overall not worth the long drive. PHL long layover on the other hand is awesome. A long drive as well but worth it. Reminds me of Fort Worth layovers but better. Hotel van provider is horrible and traffic is bad out of there. I am giving that layover another month and it will be gone.
