I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and well-equipped, although a bit small with a slight smell from the AC. The service was friendly and excellent, although some improvement in hospitality skills could enhance the experience. The location was very convenient for downtown activities but had a slightly odd bathroom layout. The dining options were decent but slightly overpriced. Facilities were satisfactory.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were ready immediately, and the staff were friendly, including the wonderful bartenders. I appreciated the free shuttle service to a local restaurant and the ride to the Astros game. However, there were issues with the toilet not flushing for the first two days despite my repeated requests. Additionally, there were some cleanliness issues like silly string on the walls and curtain in my room, which was a bit disappointing.

The staff were very helpful and welcoming, from the valets to the front-desk clerks. However, there is room for improvement in their hospitality skills. The availability of services like room service, car hire, and laundry was convenient.

Location

The hotel's location was great, especially for accessing Minute Maid Stadium and being in the heart of downtown Houston. It was perfect for a weekend downtown or attending events at the University of Houston. Though the area had many homeless people nearby, the proximity to local attractions was a plus.

Dining

The dining experience was quick and tasty, although the portion sizes were a bit skimpy. The hand-cut beef tartare was one of the best I've ever had at a hotel. Overall, the dining options were included in my stay.

The hotel offers spacious rooms with two queen-size beds which was a nice surprise. The location is close to Minute Maid Park but be prepared for the presence of homeless individuals nearby. The dining experience was lacking in options, but the professional and kind service made up for it.
