Hotels in Houston for CS

Hey!
I'm taking my CS in Houston in April and was wandering where people stayed when they took their CS there.
Thanks

sorry. not my part of town. that sounds like north houston. i would suggest just get something close to the test center. driving there should not be a problem if you are 5 or 6 miles from hotel to testing center.

hope that helps.

The test site is just outside the IAH airport (less than 5 min drive), so any hotel near the airport will suffice. Ans there are plenty of hotels near the airport. There might be some within walking distance too from what i know about the area. I live in South Houston so i can't give much specifics.

if you got to the USMLE website and look under testing centers i believe they have a list of hotels

the place is located very close to the airport so you can just stay at a hotel near the airport and you will be about a 10 min drive to the location depending on the hotel....

Comfort Inn

The one on Sam Houston Parkway is less than a five-minute walk from the testing center.

Hotel Sofitel is really nice

Sofitel Houston in Houston, Texas

I stayed there. It is across the street from the testing center. They can also give you a ride in their van. Very nice. It was good to get room service breakfast the morning of my test.

Be careful some of the hotels along that road are "seedy".

Good luck.
