Hotel was nice, breakfast was lovely, lots of choice. Handy location. Baffles me that you can pay so much for a hotel though and have to pay $50 for parking. Considering every Texan drives everywhere, they must be raking it in with parking fees. As a Brit, I can honestly say I’ve never paid for parking as an overnight guest at a hotel
