Looks to be recently renovated. Rooms are nice and clean and the hallways are very quiet. Great to walk to Toyota Center, George R. Brown or Daiken park. Good parking and actually free parking which is a huge bonus. Friendly helpful staff.

The staff, the breakfast, & location were the best part. My only complaints is that the elevators stopped working and had to take the stairs with all our luggage from the 4th floor. Also, there was an odd odor throughout most of the hotel but everything was spotless and clean. There’s got to be a way to reverberate some of that club music next door away from the hotel though-just a thought. Music was beatin down the block

The property was on. It appears they ate doing construction in the front of the building. The inside was nice and the staff was friendly and professional. I really line the fact that there had an indoor pool and fitness center. The hotel was very close to Daikin Park which is where the concert was that I was attending so that was very convenient

It is the second time I stay here, first time I had dismissed it but the elevator feels like it doesn't get enough maintenance, although it does work, I had a feeling I was going to get stuck in it. Good hotel , though, I'd stay here again whenever I go to an event at Toyota center

The Stay was Alright.

There’s construction in the entrance area (limited parking). As you walk towards the entrance it does look dirty. The room was clean, but restroom needs a bit of fixing/cleanliness. The treadmills in the gym make a lot of noise and only one works. When you walk into the hallway, it does have a weird smell. Overall, customer service was excellent and we were able to sleep peacefully. It’s a block away from the Toyota Center, which was great!
