We arrived around 11 PM for our check-in. We had to wait for someone to come to the front desk. Once we were issued cards and went to our room, the cards did not open the door. We went back to the front desk to have the card fixed. Once entering our room, the smell of must was overwhelming. We went back to the front desk and were relocated to a different room. Overall, we would not recommend this location. It is very rundown and mediocre. The beds were extremely soft and uncomfortable. The bottom of our bathroom door looked like an animal had chewed on the bottom of it. It really was very unpleasant! Definitely NOT worth the $547 for our three night stay!!!!!

My room was G140. Impressive layout. I've never seen a room in a basement. My room was spacious, air conditioned, clean and comfortable.

What a surprise it was getting into the shower and there was absolutely zero hot water. It sure woke everyone up. There was also mold growing on the ceiling above the shower. Lampshade was absolutely destroyed, hopefully we aren't charged for it... along with big dents in the walls. We tried numerous times to get a luggage trolley to take our stuff back to our car but none were available each time.

Breakfast met our expectation It was a bit hard to get into the bed, they seemed unstable
- 5/5
The staff were very welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was very complete for what other hotels give you now a-days. It really helped getting that 1 breakfast meal included to get the day started. Pool and jacuzzi were perfect to relax. Not too far from the stadium and airport. They actually did turn down service which i was shocked since hotels dont do that anymore. It was great coming back to a clean, made beds after a long day out. Good restaurants around the area, one mexican place open 24hrs.

The beds were comfortable It took us 5 different rooms to get settled, there were key issues and not getting into the right room that we reserved. It wasn’t the front desk associates fault.

The beds and pillows were super comfortable, mostly clean. The breakfast was good and the location was nice. The keys to the room had to be reprogrammed an insane amount of times. The pool was kind of dirty and needed to be maintained better. The staff weren't necessarily rude but not friendly either.

They always clean in the lobby and the dining area. When we came back to our room and rest in the afternoon they clean and fix our room. That is well appreciated. The dining area is bright and not smelly overlooking the pool.Jackie from the breakfast area was friendly.

- 5/5
This is a great place to stay and very close to everything worth exploring and seeing in and around Arlington. They have a full breakfast and very nice staff. Rooms were very clean and quiet. It is close to many restaurants that you could walk to and there is are other shopping centers close but if you forgot something at home. They provide stuff for showering and pool towels.

I have stayed at this hotel numerous times. The TV was not sufficient regarding the ability to locate the local channels (i.e.) ABC, CBS, NBC, and various other channels. It started with 12-1, 12-2, etc. including up to 99.3. I was told at the front office that there are issues with the new TV's

The breakfast was not fresh. The rooms were dirty. The blinds were filthy. They put me in a handicap accessible room, which I did not ask for it. No apps to watch movies on dirty yellow towels dirty bedsheets too expensive to be mediocre. I will not stay here again.

The staff was nice. The room was clean. The room was spic and span. It was tidy. The restrooms was really clean. The downfall was the beds that were squeaky and not comfortable and we were hoping the swimming pool would’ve been open, but it wasn’t other than that, it was a 10 out of 10 the bed alone was 3-10.

Many shopping options nearby. 2-3 min drives. Hotel was semi clean. Check in was easy. Housekeeping was extremely rude and looks at you in disgust. If you don’t like your job, quit.

Delightful! Graciously welcomed by front desk staff; large, very clean room with extremely comfortable bed and pillows; quiet air conditioner; nice hot breakfast and all at a reasonable price. Just please put real salsa or picante (not plain hot sauce!) out next to scrambled eggs - after all, this is Texas! Would stay here again.

Hotel was clean and staff helpful. Bed was comfortable but was raised so high it was difficult to get into(I’m 69 years old). Breakfast was okay but cold meat and pancake maker didn’t cook them correctly.

Stayed here for the weekend for my son's football tournament and I will say out of the staff from Thursday to Sunday only the lady that checked me in and the breakfast staff were friendly. I have NEVER heard anyone on the floor above me but at any hotel stay's it happened. I also have never experienced the water not getting hot in the shower this did not just happen once but twice. I say for $600.00 it was not worth Breakfast was okay I have gotten better at cheaper hotels they did have a good variety. It was me trying to take a shower at 6:30 AM and the water being cold why I would not stay again. Good luck!

Breakfast was not great. Didn't taste good. Not even the pancakes tasted like pancakes. The only thing that was decent were the cinnamon rolls, which they probably only had to heat up.

I had a pleasant stay overall. The room and bathroom were both very clean, and the service from the staff was excellent—friendly, helpful, and professional. The only downside was the bed. It had a noticeable valley in the middle, which made it a bit uncomfortable to sleep in. I’d recommend replacing the mattress to improve the experience. Other than that, everything else was great!
