No complaints! Toyota Center is a 5 min walk. Note that valet overnight parking is $58/night + tax. There is some street parking but you have to look. $75 deposit required. Parking is taken out of the deposit.

This was an excellent hotel, the only negative is that it’s in downtown Houston. It didn’t feel safe at all but from our room we could see the homeless sleeping on the sidewalk.
