What guests loved the most

“The World Series celebration occurred while I was in Houston. It took 45 minutes to place a drink order and soup order in the bar (which was not that busy) and 1.5 hours to get a bowl of soup. Management did give me a $10. certificate for food in the hotel because of the terrible service. Otherwise everything was good. Food menu need updating. Limited selections.”

“Downtown location is great. Rooms were well appointed. Courtesy van is great. ”

, USA

“Room and bed were great. Staff extremely courteous and helpful”

, USA

“The beds were really comfortable, and the room was OK if a little on the small side. Breakfast was not included and very expensive to purchase in the restaurant. Main downside was that we were right by the gym in room 204, so at 0630 we were woken by people banging on the weights machine. I advised the manager and they stated they could not give me a discount as I did not book direct and booked with booking.com.”

, United Kingdom

“All of the staff were super pleasant and helpful! Loved the downtown free shuttle and used it a lot. The lobby and room decor were”

, USA

“The driver for the hotel shuttle was very nice. The hotel shuttle was awesome and took us where we needed to go in the downtown area.”

, USA

“Great location in downtown. The hotel is very modern and the bed is super comfortable. Definitely a good choice.”

, Italy

“We had an emergency and had to check out after just two hours. They waved the fee and directed us to contact Booking to finalize no charge”

, USA

“Room was fairly small, but very nice. Small couch, glass table and desk were useful. Bathroom very roomy. Desk staff was very pleasant. Location great in terms of being close to downtown theatres & restaurants. Wifi worked great. Reasonably priced given it's downtown location.”

, USA

“Free shuttle service within the downtown center was very helpful getting to and from the convention center”
