"We love this hotel. Over 12 years, we've stayed here over a dozen times. It's a fun place with funky decor. Having a coffee bar on each floor is wonderful.2019-06-20"
"I've stayed at this hotel at least 15 times in the last 11 years, and it never fails to disappoint me. It's luxurious and never boring, and the staff is friendly. On our last visit, the bellman asked what the occasion was for our trip; we replied that we were celebrating our birthdays. A few minutes later, we received a bottle of wine. Be sure to visit the morning coffee bar in your bathrobe.2018-08-17"
"The hotel was convenient to the Metro train, so we left our car in valet parking and used the train to go downtown and to NPG Center. Some great museums were nearby, too.2018-03-24"
"I was satisfied with this hotel. It was clean, the employees were polite, and I loved the morning coffee pantry on every floor. Valet parking only, though. Great place to stay.2017-03-10"
"As always, this hotel is a delightful place to stay. It's close to everything, and there's a shuttle to most places inside the 610 loop. The employees were attentive and helpful. There's always something going on, so it can be a little noisy, but if you have a room away from the elevator, you'll miss most of the activity. There's a coffee bar on every floor.2016-04-19"

"There was a wedding party on the patio right in front of my room window, and loud music played until 11 PM. I wasn't warned that this would be going on. Other than that, the hotel was nice. There was some renovation work underway in the lobby, but it wasn't overly messy or inconvenient.2020-03-02"

"The hotel room was nice. Stay here.2020-11-22"
"The hotel clerk initially gave me an already-occupied room. Other than the disorganized start, I had a pleasant stay.2018-05-19"
"Except for the shuttle driver, most of the employees were non-responsive. The room was dirty and wasn't cleaned unless we asked. Trash cans weren't emptied, and the front desk clerk told us to come back in 20 minutes for dishes and utensils; when I said we'd be gone by then, he helped us but was texting the whole time. The hallway wasn't cleaned for days. This was one of my worst hotel experiences.2018-02-22"
"The hotel was nice enough, but there were no luggage carts and no bellmen. Convenient to the medical center.2017-11-16"

"The hotel was close to supermarkets and restaurants. There were some mechanical issues, but the amenities were nice and the staff was friendly. Decent breakfast. Use the kitchen in your room and the outdoor BBQ.2020-02-11"
"The hotel was dog friendly, and the room was large, comfortable, and clean. The staff was accommodating and let us stay in the same room when we had to extend our stay. Good breakfast and easy parking. We used the shuttle to get to the hospital with no problem, but never got picked up because the driver couldn't find us, even though we gave him the address and stood out by the road waiting. Still, I highly recommend staying here.2019-07-28"

"No housekeeping service of any kind during my 8-day stay. Didn't even get clean towels. No dishes or coffee pot provided. Front desk clerks were unfriendly and uncooperative. Parking was a joke; the hotel charged for parking for the Houston Rodeo where there weren't enough spaces for hotel guests. Low-quality breakfast. This place was about the most customer-unfriendly place I've ever stayed. 2015-03-23"

"The hotel wasn't luxurious, but the accommodations were good. The room had everything I needed, and I appreciated that the heating and cooling unit wasn't too loud and didn't disturb my sleep. I also liked that the bathroom light and exhaust fan had separate switches. The kitchen was just what I needed. The staff was friendly. Skimpy breakfast, but there was a large supermarket in a mall across the street.2018-12-15"

"I requested a room on the 1st floor since I use a walker, but I was given a room on the 3rd floor of the hotel. The fire alarm went off shortly after I checked in; I couldn't use the stairs, and the elevator didn't work, so it was a scary experience.2017-10-14"

"Good location. My room smelled like mold, so I asked for a room change after 2 nights. The staff was helpful, and immediately offered me another room that was in much better condition. It was spacious but near the noisy elevator, and the decor was outdated.2015-05-07"
"Hotel desk clerk wasn't pleasant or welcoming; he didn't acknowledge me when I arrived and I had to introduce myself to get his attention. Not a good way to start my stay.2015-02-20"
