The rooms were average but a little outdated. The elevator door didn’t always work so we did use the stairs. The hotel charged me more than what I booked on Expedia. They told me they couldn’t honor Expedia’s rate. Expedia also tried to call them and they couldn’t work out a resolution. Expedia also told me that was the chance I took for not prepaying ahead of time.

The only good thing about this property is the location! My 1 year old throw up on her blanket and a small amount got on the sheet I was charged 135.00 for deep cleaning, breakfast was horrible, not a variety and was always cold…. There are so much hidden fees, what every they show you online expect to pay twice the amount! This place was horrible all around and not for family

Great stay! Great staff!

The stay was great. The staff was amazing and very helpful. The breakfast was ok. I made a waffle in the shape of Texas, which was cute.Just an FYI, they charge $25/day for parking. That parking garage has pretty graffiti, but going up to those gates are a steep hill. It made me feel like i was going to tear up my car. That's my only complaint. The room was nice and cozy. The bed was comfortable and the view was decent. The shuttle takes you anywhere within a 1.5 mile radius which is nice because we went to the House of Blues. Overall, the hotel is nice, just didnt like how steep it is trying to get through the gate and having to swipe my card to get out. If someone was behind me, i would have hit them. I know they can't fix this issue, but it hurt my car.
