10 yrs Anniversary

It was great, we were able to, dine, dance, and relax. The only thing bad, was the fact that our room faced a Jazz cafe across the street and we could here everything.

Lakers vs. Rockets Game #3

This hotel was found online, because I had gotten tickets for the Lakers vs. Rockets game #3 and was searching for a hotel to spend one night in after the game. I wanted something within walking distance of the Toyota Center and wanted to enjoy any night life activities after the game. This location was perfect as it was within 1 mile of the arena and very close to an assortment of bars, restaurants, and night clubs. The staff at the hotel was friendly and helpful with any questions about establishments were good for drinks and food. The hotel was very clean and quiet. The hotel had complimentary shuttle service in a Mercedes. Though we did not end up going to a bar or night club, we did however hang out at the bar in the hotel. It was a nice mellow atmosphere. The overall experience was good. I would recommend this hotel to anyone that is in town to have a good time or in town to experience a lively night life.

Loved It!!

This hotel was fantastic!! The lobby has very cool decor, and the staff was so helpful! Love love loved the HUGE bathroom and the room in general. Location is in walking distance to the light rail that goes to the Reliant Center. The only negative thing that I have to say is that the housekeeping staff stocked my room with only DECAF coffee for the coffee maker. I mean, why even bother drinking coffee if it is decaf?!?

Everything good but no buffet breakfast

Everything was good. Buffet breakfast would have been nice if they had it - business folks don't have too much time in the morning for a sit down breakfast IMHO.

Romantic Night

This was a great hotel!! My boyfriend made it into town really early that day, and I was not sure we could get a early check-in esp. 1 at 10am. Surprisingly, they accomidated us and when we checked out, were not even charged for it. The lobby of the hotel was so aesthetically pleasing and the staff smiled and greeted you everywhere. I like the security feature of needing your hotel room card to use the elevator. Also, we asked for a late check out of 1:30pm, and were accomidated.No problem with getting our car from valet, and it is in an under cover garage, which for the Houston heat is great. Loved the rain shower, we ended up taking the longest showers just for that reason, its so relaxing. We will def be staying here again!!
