Bed was the most uncomfortable bed I’ve slept on in quite some time. There was also some sort of leak in the ceiling in the bathroom. Overall awful experience and would not recommend.

They were rebuilding the room next by and didn’t tell me anything. So very loud and when I called the front desk he said they couldn’t do anything about it. Internet didn’t work. Half machines at the gym broke.

I arrived 50 mins early for my check in and the front desk clerk was quick to tell me I was early and would have to wait. I waited until 3:00 (while I saw others check in before 3:00) and when 3:00 hit I went to the front desk to check in only to be told I they didn’t have a room ready. Once I got a room the water in the toilet and faucet was an orange color. Maintenance came and said I just need to let the water run. It had been running for 20 mins before I called the. In the end they moved me to a new room. Not my best stay.

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
Starting with the good: The room was clean, and the housekeeping did an excellent job throughout our stay refreshing our room. The not so good: The parking garage is poorly designed, overpriced, and an overall unpleasant experience. The shuttle would be a nice touch but the amount of places they actually take you is VERY limited given the 1.5 mile radius. The minifridge in our room was extremely loud. The bathroom was lacking in design (no place to hang the hand towels, soap dispenser far from sink). Overall: I would probably look elsewhere if I was returning to Houston.
