Great staff and the shuttle service is a plus. Lobby area is nice however, the rooms are outdated and bathrooms tiny. Definitely time for a remodel. But that didn't hinder my overall stay.

The hotel overall is great. Very walkable area. Great staff. My only two complaints are there’s a required valet parking service that was $40 a night if you bring a vehicle which I didn’t know about until the day before my stay from an email from the hotel. So what I was told on Hotels.com wasn’t what I actually paid. Second, there was no microwave in the room so eating out was the only option.

This is a great place to stay if you’re going to an event at the Toyota Center. I love that they have a shuttle that goes to the venue. I loved the atmosphere and enjoyed eating at the restaurant there.

All good, mostly
Staff were great, liked the eco policy which included a credit to spent at the in-house restaurant. The air conditioning in the room worked fine apart from not being able to change the target temperature. Plus the room smelled of cologne very strong the entire time which was odd and not ideal.
