The property was nice and clean. Only thing I didn’t like is that I booked through Expedia and there was a $25 a day amenity charge. Not sure what that was for. It wasn’t like I ordered room service or anything. We came to visit Houston and we only sleep there. It was nice coming in one day and seeing baked cookies at the front.
