5 Star Hostel in Mid-Town Houston

MyCrib is a very clean modern hostel conveniently located in Midtown Houston. The amenities were top-notch and similar to what might find at much higher price elsewhere. The kitchen, with a variety of food items for a DIY breakfast was spotless as were the bath and sleeping areas. One could not ask for more gracious and kind hosts as Cathy and Harold. There is also a very comfortable and cozy living area. Staying at a hostel is a great way to meet fellow travelers and I enjoyed talking with them at breakfast on Saturday morning. I am hopeful I will have the opportunity to stay at MyCrib Houston Hostel in the near future.

3rd time with these guys and once again excellent stay. The dorm room, bathroom, and kitchen were very clean and orderly. Their place is more like love for the guests. Cathy went above to helped me with late check-in. Loved the bed comforter, lamp, power strip, and nice big hotel towel. Bedroom also have privacy curtains and I love the combo storage locker. The bathroom has lovely rain shower, very nice unique wash clothes, bath gel, and other gels. Kitchen frid was big, and clean. Some good food and snacks options for reasonable prices. Free breakfast cereal (frosted, honey gram, and Cheerios) and fresh milk. Looking forward to my next stay. I say they provide love and not just a service.

This is a 3-4 bedroom lovely, modern home with 2-3 sets of bunk beds in the bedrooms. Lockers were appreciated, but the personal space between bunks to use the locker, or pack, or get dressed was inconvenient/uncomfortable. As usual, at peak times there was a wait for the bathroom. 3 full baths for potentially 18 people.

Hostel in Houston with Herold!

This is the best deal in town! I was gonna book a hotel in Downtown until I found this little gem in Midtown. With great reviews, I could not resist this deal! From the time I booked it, I was not wrong at all. I was stuck in SFO and told Herold about my delayed flight and he helped me out with the check in immediately via text. I arrived past midnight and I found it easy to get in. Of course, they were not there to help me as they live else where but the instructions were clear enough to enter without any receptionists. THE BEDS & BATH The property is super new! The locks were rough but the female dorm was clean &the mattress was amazing for a hostel~ The best part is the pretty white bathroom which had such a big sink and many drawers we could use. Not to mention it had such thick Kirkland bathroom rolls, the way I liked it. The towel was also thick and fluffy like hotel towels. I was impressed. THE BREAKFAST, DINING & KITCHEN Breakfast was good for a hostel. We had milk and a wide selection of Stash tea & there's a cute coffee machine as well. As the property is new, we got new cutlery and cups and kitchen appliances too. I loved hanging out at the kitchen/dining area as there was just so much fun and banter with the guests and the hosts too! Herold even matched me to another guest so we could travel down to the Space Center via Uber together and save money. This center is well worth the trip! OVERALL A HIDDEN GEM I will be back. Thank you Herold & Cathy!

This place is really a gem. I stay here when I’m in HTX for work. Great value for the price. And it’s become a treat to get to visit with all the other travelers staying from all over the world. Obviously hostels are not everyone’s cup of tea, but this is the nicest, cleanest, and most well kept one I’ve ever come across. The owners are nice people who stay and visit with everyone in the evenings until 7 or so. I really enjoy staying here.

excellent place

I recently stayed at a fantastic hostel in Midtown, Houston, while attending a conference, and I can't recommend it enough! From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the pristine cleanliness and modern decor. The hostel exudes a welcoming atmosphere that made my stay both comfortable and enjoyable. One of the standout features is the abundance of amenities. The common areas are spacious and well-maintained, perfect for relaxing or meeting fellow travelers. The kitchen is fully equipped, making it easy to prepare meals if you're looking to save a bit on dining out. There's also a cozy lounge area with plenty of seating, ideal for unwinding after a long day at the conference. The hostel offers free Wi-Fi, which was fast and reliable—crucial for catching up on work and staying connected. I also appreciated the complimentary breakfast, which included a variety of options to start the day off right. The staff were incredibly friendly and always ready to assist with any questions or recommendations for local attractions. The location in Midtown is another huge plus. It's a vibrant neighborhood with plenty of dining and entertainment options within walking distance. Plus, it's conveniently close to public transportation, making it easy to explore other parts of Houston. Overall, my experience at this hostel was exceptional.

This was a solo trip to Houston, a beautiful city, for my birthday. While i was on my flight to Houston, i decided to stay at a hostel. I looked at a couple facilities but Mycrib was affordable and appeared to be a safe, clean, place to stay. My stay was comfortable and the hosts were very friendly and cool to hang out with. I would definitely recommend this hostel to any small group or solo travelers.
