The purpose of this stay was to enjoy a relaxing date night near downtown and get some much‑needed rest. Unfortunately, before 5:00 AM, a loud and unbearable noise started coming from the bathroom - apparently caused by high‑pressure water. The disruption completely ruined the experience, making the stay far from restful and undermining the entire reason for booking the room. It simply ruined our day.

Loved our stay. We only stayed one day but that made an impression. Staff was nice and the room was super cute and we had a personal note which was so sweet. The parking could be better and maybe not so expensive but it’s Houston. We would stay again.

When A/C was on it made the loudest noise the entire time, I had to turn on the fan app on my phone for my daughter to even fall asleep.-this was aggravating enough to make us not go back. We ate dinner at the restaurant, food was very bland(no seasoning on chicken, or any vegetables), and when signing receipt I noticed costs $25 to charge our dinner to our room number. So I suggest to pay with card or cash instead, and this was not mentioned by staff prior. Service was excellent though, throughout entire time. All staff was so lovely! Bathroom wasn’t as clean as I thought it should be. When taking a shower the water flew over the lip and got the floor wet so had to put down three towels to dry floor to get ready for our night. Breakfast did not service pancakes or waffles, just a bummer is all, there was not enough chairs to accommodate guests and no silverware or cups so we waited awhile to be able to even eat and/or drink.
