The room was very comfortable, and the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom lighting was very helpful as it was bright enough to actually see what I was doing and the shower had excellent pressure. It would be helpful to have more space on the counter for toiletries that I bring, but this hotels space was pretty standard. The air conditioner worked very well and thermostat was easy to use The only issue I had at all was that the television did not work for the entire stay, but that was a hotel wide problem and they gave a generous discount for that upon check out.

Good- staff inside was incredibly friendly! Check in was a breeze and you do a self check in at a kiosk and create your own room key. They have water fill up stations on every floor up to the 24th which was very convenient. The pillows are SO comfortable it was the best sleep I’ve ever had! It’s right across the street from the riverwalk and there’s a lot going on at all times around the area so you can just park and walk around the whole time! Bad: Valet was horrendous! They service multiple hotels on that block so be prepared to wait! They told us 15 minutes but it was closer to an hour and every time we went out to check they told us 5 more minutes. Not only this they clearly don’t care about your vehicle. While we were waiting to go check in a car backed up into a Lamborghini and drove away. Two of the valet drivers froze for a minute and then finally went to check on the car. (Luckily there was no damage) so they just visably shrugged their shoulders and walked away. Also if you stay here DO NOT pay the 28 dollars for parking. They still charge your room $53 anyway 2nd - the room looks NOTHING like the pictures when you book. I wish I could submit my photos and videos I took. Our room that we paid over $200 for plus the $100 security deposit was the size of Harry potters bedroom under the stairs! It was a walk in closet with a bed inside. You could touch all 4 walls from the comfort of your bed. Sound on the TV cut in and out and the picture froze every 7 seconds.

We love the location of the hotel and its service. The room was a little bare (bed and desk, no side tables, baggage rack or armchair) and we could have used a comfortable chair to sit. We were never long enough in our room to request one but I thought it a little odd to have to ask for a chair.
