The ShutEye Hostel

I was a little disappointed in this place. I thought it'd be more like the Ugly House (same owner) meaning my private room would have a pin pad lock on the door, its own TV, and have a desk or at least a chair. It's difficult sitting on a bed using a nightstand as a table. And even worse, the hot water heater went out so I could not take a shower for at least 4 of the 10 days I was there. I think a partial refund would be appropriate considering such a major inconvenience. The house is several blocks inside its residential neighborhood making it far from public transportation, about a 12-minute walk to the nearest bus stop. The best part was the house manager who was as accommodating as she could be. (I was shocked to hear that she has to share a room with up to 5 other guests.) And I have

I am at the Shut-eye now. All bookings are non-refundable. I would not recommend the place because there is a group of long-term residents who won't let others sleep. Management overwhelmingly favors this group although they are disruptive, abusive, and threatening towards other visitors. I have been kept up all night by a guy shouting to another video game player. A young man threatened to vandalize my belongings by drenching them in water, a group of young women talk loudly, turn on lights, and carry lights all night long. I have booked my return travel a week early because I cannot get any sleep here and I don't feel safe here. Quiet hours are supposed to start at 9:00 p.m. in the rooms, but the lights, loud talking, and walking around start at 11:00 p.m.(But only for long-term resident

I am at the place now and it is nothing like other hostels that are for travelers. There is a core group of young people here who cannot rent elsewhere. This is their home and they can do or say whatever they want. If you are a short-term visitor, management won't care about you. I was placed in a bunk above a rude guy who plays video games all night. It is now past midnight and the guy is talking out loud to another player. Quiet hours and other rules that are listed, are not enforced. I am leaving Houston a week early because I can't sleep at night here. Management only cares about long-term residents. Also, bookings are non-refundable.

Nothing good to say about this place. I have travelled far and wide and always enjoyed hostel life. This is hostel death. No 'shuteye' of any kind will be found at this place. My room was a mess, stunk of weed, the guy below me plays online games loudly with friends over headset all the day/night. Air con did not work in 40c/110F heat. Toilet didnt even work, manager had to reach into the cistern water to lift the latch to flush it. She was the only redeeming quality, and was fully understanding when I took one look at the room/place turned around and exited. Even the worst 3rd world countries hostels are far superior than this place. And its in the middle of no where, which cost me $25 uber there and back, so ended up not being a cheap/pleasant experience. Thumbs down. Owner insisted on

If u like living with gangstalkers that never mind there own business, comment on you in a passive agressive way. Try to tell you how to live your life, with Roach intentions hack your phone, choose this place.
