Because MD Anderson has multiple buildings throughout the Texas Medical Center, we recommend checking the exact building and entrance listed in your appointment details before leaving. Your walking time may vary depending on where your appointment is located. Houston can also be hot and humid, particularly during the warmer months. Depending on the weather, mobility needs, or how you are feeling during treatment, driving or another transportation option may be more comfortable.

Driving to MD Anderson

Guests staying in our nearby homes may prefer to drive to appointments. MD Anderson offers multiple patient parking garages and drop-off areas throughout its Texas Medical Center campus.

Parking options vary by appointment location. Garage 10 and Garage 2 provide access to the Main Building, while the Mays Clinic/Duncan Building Patient and Visitor Garage serves appointments in those buildings.

Before leaving your StayCozy home, we recommend checking the building and entrance listed in your appointment details. MD Anderson’s official directions and parking information can help you find the most convenient garage or drop-off area for your specific appointment.

A Furnished Home During Treatment

A medical stay is different from a typical trip. Treatment schedules may change, appointments may be added, and having a comfortable place to rest between visits can make an extended stay in Houston easier.

Every StayCozy home is fully furnished and includes:

  • A full kitchen with pots, pans, and utensils

  • In-unit washer and dryer

  • Wi-Fi

  • Linens

  • Comfortable living spaces

  • Private bedrooms

Having your own kitchen makes it easier to prepare familiar meals, while in-unit laundry can be especially convenient during longer stays. For patients traveling with family members or caregivers, our furnished apartments and private homes also provide more space and privacy than a traditional hotel room.

Flexible Stays for Patients and Families

StayCozy welcomes medical guests for stays ranging from a few nights to several weeks or months.

We understand that treatment schedules can change. If you need to stay in Houston longer than originally planned, contact our team as soon as possible and we will do our best to accommodate an extension based on availability.

Guests communicate directly with the StayCozy team throughout their stay, so if you need assistance with your accommodation, you can reach out to us directly.

Staying With Family or a Caregiver

Many patients travel to Houston with a spouse, family member, or caregiver. StayCozy offers both furnished apartments and larger private homes, making it easier to choose a space that fits your group.

Depending on the property, guests can choose from homes with multiple bedrooms, full kitchens, comfortable living areas, parking, and additional space for longer stays.

If you are unsure which property is the best fit, our team can help you compare available options based on distance from MD Anderson, number of bedrooms, length of stay, and transportation needs.
