HI-Houston: The Morty Rich Hostel

Looking for a place to bed down in H-town, but don't have a lot of scratch to spare? This non-profit hostel might be just the thing. Occupying a 1917-built Montrose mansion, originally the residence of Houston mayor Joseph Hutchinson, the place offers several multi-bed coed dorm rooms, plus a communal kitchen, an art-filled lounge area, and a billiards room. The best perk, especially at a price point this modest, is the swimming pool in a tree-shaded backyard. The location is accessible to public transportation and a slew of great restaurants along Westheimer.
