This is an older hotel remodeled. Out room smelt of years of cigarette smoke . The room didn’t really cool down as much as we like and staff were nice. Probably won’t stay here again due to musty cigarette smell in our room.

I accidently booked the room for Saturday instead of Sunday night so when I got there I had to pay for another room at a higher rate. My mistake and I own that, what they don't tell you is they charge for the water in the room. When I returned home I reached out to the hotel to see if could get a refund for the Saturday charge and was told they would not issue a refund. Had the hotel been to capacity and it was a last room situation I would have understood their side but they definitely were not. I normally wouldn't write a review but they were not at all willing to help.

Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The location was perfect for the my scheduled activities. Very safe location. Staff were very efficient. The room was 3rd level pool side, which was an additional cost. I would not recommend this if you are wanting a more quiet stay as you can hear the music playing from the pool area. The room was spacious but not completely clean. Stains on the closet doors, dust on light fixtures, shower floor was stained. The bed, bedding, pillows were very comfortable. I did not request an accessible room but that is what I got which would account for the dings and marks on the walls. Overall I would stay here again but request a room not poolside as it is not worth the higher rate.

Hotel review
We stayed at this hotel for a few days due to Hurricane Beryl in Houston. The customer service was great the staff were all friendly and accommodating. The room wasn’t as clean as it should have been. I typically clean when I come but it wasn’t in the best condition. The room was a nice size given that we traveled with an infant and needed some extra space. Overall it wasn’t a bad experience the room just wasn’t very clean.
