My stay at the hotel was wonderful! The rooms were much larger than the usual US standard and incredibly clean, giving off a newly renovated vibe. The staff was super helpful, friendly, and chatty, which made me feel really welcome. The location was convenient, close to downtown Houston, but I hope to never stay in that palace again. The dining experience, especially the Tuscan bread, was delightful. The facilities were also exceptional. However, I did notice some odd rental activities in the office, leaving me unsure about staying for longer periods.

The hotel's location is perfect, close to downtown Houston. The rooms are very clean and look newly renovated, although they are smaller than the usual US standard room. The service was exceptional, with staff being super helpful, friendly, and chatty. However, the experience of guests coming in to rent rooms for short periods was a bit off-putting. The dining offers juicy burgers, and overall, the facilities are good.

I loved staying at this hotel! The rooms were larger than the usual US standard size, which was a nice surprise. They were clean and squeaky clean, making me feel comfortable throughout my stay. The service was exceptional; the staff was super friendly, helpful, and chatty. The location was great, close to downtown Houston, and I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. However, the dining experience could use some improvement. Overall, a fantastic stay with great value for money.
