The hotel is good, with friendly staff and excellent hospitality. However, for the price, the lobby feels somewhat small compared to high-end hotels. The location is excellent, allowing easy walking access to most places in downtown Houston.

Restaurants are not open and no coffee shop!
I was excited to book this stay for New Years Eve! I booked it because it had two restaurants, a coffee shop and breakfast included with our stay. Unfortunately, when we arrived, Valet parking was $50 to start off, only one restaurant was open and the coffee shop was also closed. In the morning (apparently, breakfast was not included with my stay).. I had to pull up my app which stated it was! Our room had no soap and minimal shampoo and conditioner. I really wish we had a better experience.

The staff were nice and friendly but the room was dirty with visibly dry water rings. The bathroom also was very small with limited space and broken towel holders. Stayed here for only 24 hrs. Wouldn’t recommend if you need a place longer than that.
