Exhaust fan in bathroom didn’t work. Carpets in hall and room need shampooing. Spot above desk on ceiling looks like it is about ready to fall down. Just needs TLC. The staff was very friendly and kind. And the lady that took care of the breakfast area was excellent and very kind.

Nice place to stay for a weekend for a coupe.

I enjoyed the hotel. The proximity to the Riverwalk was very nice. The breakfast choices were nice. I recommend putting more towels in the bathroom in the room. Our bathroom only had two bath towels.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Wouldn't recommend. Shower had obvious mold growth in multiple areas, very dirty carpeting in stairwells, one of the bed's had a stained sheet - we moved over to the other bed. Loud motorcycles and other engines revving at 3 am, 5 am. On the plus side, the bed was comfortable, the room was dark with the blinds pulled, temperature was comfortable.

Very poor parking

Beware if you have to park after 5pm. The lot is full of Spectrum trucks. Also it’s hard to exit from the parking lot unless you want to cross the bridge.
