Everything was very nice and clean from the room to the gym , swimming pool & bar. We enjoyed the hotel very much. But It would be a lovely option if they have a choice of a lower pillow as I was having a hard time throughout the night.

Great hotel overall – almost perfect! I’d give it a 10, but it’s missing a few key amenities that really should be included at this price point: free parking, complimentary breakfast, and a hot tub. Add those, and it would be truly exceptional.

Super clean, very nice room staff was all super friendly and helpful. Have the parking added to your room key its definitely worth it and super reasonable compared to paying outright. Super close and walkable to all downtown locations including Magnolia Market. The pool was really nice and open late with big TV and firepits. Absolute fav part. If you have alot of luggage unload at the front door when you check in, the parking garage is close but would seem far with a bunch of bags. Would definitely stay here again.
