Good choice in this area of Houston
The Sheraton Houston West is a good choice when you have meetings on the west side of Houston. I would not want to stay in this area if my meetings were downtown but there are several major corporations with offices in the vicinity.
The check in staff was very efficient, a quick process and off to the room. You need a key to activate the elevator which is great (big hit with female colleagues). There are five stories and one long hallway on each floor. The lighting is a little dim, so rooms at the end of the hallway are a little creepy going to. The room itself is nicely, and it appeared newly, decorated, I was pleasantly surprised to see a nice leather chair for relaxing (and incredibly surprised to see the Mitchell Gold label, wow) a wood table for your luggage versus the metal rack in the closet, a great and comfortable bed, and a long desk with several plugs for all the gadgets. The lighting was two sconces, one on each side of the bed a table light on the desk and a floor lamp next to the leather chair. WIFI was very easy to use (for some reason they call it WIFI light) and the speed was fine. The bath was a stall shower in lieu of a tub, great idea, so it was a really nice size, a medium sized sink and the typical Sheraton toiletries. Most importantly it was very clean. There were only two of each towel, I think three is the minimum acceptable. 
The fitness center on the first floor was a pleasant surprise. It appeared that the cardio machines were all newish and a single multi-purpose station allows for lots of choices. There is also a pool outside.
The Lounge on the fifth floor has coffee and a frdige with some soda and drinks. Nothing is offered for breakfast. Very strange.
The restaurant stays open until 1000 and the bar until 1100. The breakfast buffet contains the usual suspects, no ups, no extras and a la carte is available. Overall food was fair, and i am being kind. It’s Texas so cream is the additive of choice in the coffee (it is the only offering at the Starbucks free coffee bar in the Lobby), but just ask and they will bring skim-2%. 
Check out is very speedy. As a head’s up forget about making a left turn out of the parking lot, make a right and then a u-turn 200 feet down the road.
Overall I was pleasantly surprised with this hotel and if in the area again would probably stay here and opt for fruit and yogurt for my breakfast.
