Guest Housing

Guests, interns, camps and groups staying in Hunter Hall will be directly connected to a full-time staff member assigned to manage all of your housing needs. Guests will also interact with Summer Housing Assistants, which are student employees specifically trained in providing exceptional customer service to guests.

Summer Housing Assistants (SHAs) are responsible for guests, intern and camp check-ins and check-outs, assisting with housing concerns, room setup needs, and hands-on front desk operations.

If you need assistance, please visit or call our front desk at 281-283-2615. In the event of an emergency, please contact our Police Department at 281-283-2222. We are here to help you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!

Hunter Hall is a traditional suite-style residence hall made up of four floors, with a mixture of double and semi-shared single rooms.

At full capacity, Hunter Hall holds up to 294 persons. ADA rooms are available upon request.

Unless otherwise requested or stated in the contract, summer guests, interns, camps and conferences will be housed in standard double or semi-shared single rooms throughout the hall. Our Summer Housing Assistants reside in our private single spaces on each floor, in order to provide a safe environment for all guests.

Hunter Hall is a fully air-conditioned facility with free upgraded WiFi throughout the building. Trash, laundry facilities (free of charge), computer lab access and use, and comfortable lounge spaces are available on each floor. Study rooms are available on the third and fourth floors. The first floor offers a shared community kitchen, large community lounge, patio area, vending area, and our front desk with computer kiosks available for guest use.

Room Furnishings

Each suite room comes furnished with an adjustable height twin XL bed, closet or wardrobe space, desk, and desk chair. Restroom facilities (shower and toilet) are adjacent to each room, inside of each suite.

ADA rooms are available upon request.

Linen Service

Though we encourage guests to bring their own linens for the duration of their stay, guests, interns and summer camps/conferences participants may arrange to have linen services contracted for an additional charge (based on availability) upon prior request via contract as available. Linen packets include a bed sheet, pillow with pillow case, blanket, bath towel and washcloth. For long-term stays, linens are changed out on a weekly basis, unless otherwise requested.

Toiletries

We do not currently provide any toiletries for guests, unless their is an emergency situation.

Guests must sign and complete a Guest Housing Agreement with Student Housing and Residential Life at least 2 weeks prior to their arrival. Failure to do so will result in a $10 (daily), $20 (weekly), or $50 (monthly) increase to their guest housing rate.

Guests, interns and summer camp and conference participants are expected to follow all University, UH System, and Student Housing and Residential Life policies, as well as details agreed upon in their contract with UHCL.
