    The hotel was under renovation but could hardly tell on the inside. From checking in to entering our room was seamless. No dust, no detours, no hassles. The only bad thing was that the valet app didn't work so it took a little more time to retrieve our vehicle. Our room was spacious, nice view of the city. AC worked perfectly for it being a hot day in Houston. Staff was friendly and helpful.

    The rooms We had to wait for our rooms! Check in was at 3, we got our hotel room later because there was slot of people waiting! We got there and the bedsheets were dirty! This man brought us new bedding sheets but he didn’t even change them, he expected for us to do it even though WE paid for a room in that hotel, I felt like he should’ve done it!

    The towels stunk. There was construction going on the building we were unaware of. The toilet was not working very good. The a/c had a timer that was set to go off after so many few hours so we’d wake up hot a few times.

    Location was great, especially if you need to get to Daikin field which is only a few blocks away. For a room with 2 queen beds and therefore probably at least 2 guests, it's a very strange choice to go with a "barn door" that doesn't fully close for the washroom in terms of privacy.

    The Hotel looks like it is perpetually under construction. There is scaffolding around the building all the time. I was informed it's been there for 6 years. The rooms are nice and appear to have been renovated recently. Hotel's location is great as it's only a short walk to the stadium if you're going to the Astros game. Hotel's checkout process needs some attention. No luggage carts available, locked out of room even though 1 hour late checkout was requested and approved. Was sent by staff to first floor to find a luggage cart. 1st floor staff sent me to 2nd floor to find a cart. Asked the desk, and they said they are probably all be used at this time, after running me around looking

    I wasn't aware that there was no on-location free parking. There is a valet and if you don't want it, you're free to park anywhere else. The staff was friendly and courteous, even the valet. They're in the process of remodeling, so it doesn't look very appealing. But the room was nice and clean. The only inconvenience was the valet parking.

    We stayed during a time where there was a nerby, sold out concert so the hotel was at capacity. The hotel did not staff the hotel with enough staff, knowing they were at scarcity. We were not able to leave the hotel until 1:00 because we had to wait on luggage carts and for our car to be retrieved from valet.

    We enjoyed our room and the location of the property however, only two of the five elevators were working and we stayed here for an event so you could imagine how bad it was trying to get to our room after the event and during checkout, we thought valet parking was great up until check out when there was crowds of people waiting for their car the wait was at least 20 to 30 minutes to get our car! (The valet staff were super nice and helpful however they do need MORE STAFF on event nights/ morning after!!!!!!) if you decide to stay here, I would consider parking elsewhere as valet is $60 A NIGHT

    We arrived to check in at 4:00 pm the check in is at 3:00 pm and the room was not ready they stated it would be another 20 minutes. If you park in there hotel you must do valet parking and I did after an hour my car was still not available. They did not give me the keys to retrieve my car because the car is not parked at the hotel parking lot

    Room could’ve been cleaner and smell fresher. Staff was okay but dry, everyone seemed tired and worn out. For the amount I paid for a one night stay I could’ve gotten a lot better. Plus the parking was horrible. They had valet but you could barely get to the front of the hotel because the hotel is in the middle of a busy street and the front entrance has construction going on. Also the valet parking was in a sketchy looking parking lot on side the hotel with a huge sign that said they wouldn’t be responsible for your car being broken into.

    I contacted the hotel immediately. The front desk staff tried to help, but the manager refused to take my call, never returned my messages, and would not respond despite repeated attempts to resolve the issue. Ultimately, I had to dispute the charge through my bank. To make matters worse, I needed to store my luggage at the front desk for about an hour after checkout and was charged $35. I've stayed at many hotels and have never been charged simply to hold my bags for a short period. Based on my experience with the billing issues, lack of management response, and unexpected fees, I would not stay here again. There are plenty of other excellent hotel options in Houston.

    This is my favorite hotel for doing business in Houston. Reasonably priced. Has a really cool "vibe". I like that it's a historical building with fun nods to the past like the mail chutes that they left in place next to the elevators. It's a perfect distance to the convention center so that I have a nice little walk (less than ten minutes) before the convention. I usually hit Common Grounds coffee shop on my way there.

I felt totally safe in this location. Staff from front desk, to valet workers to restaurant waiter to maids, excellent!

    The property is going through renovations because its an older building but do not let that stop you from staying here. This building is beautiful and the rooms are modernly luxurious for a great price. I had a great city view too! The staff made themselves so readily available, and they interacted with each other joyfully- not pretend. Thank you also to the valet Yemi, for his assistance. I had a late check-in and I felt very safe. Also, the location is fully surrounded by several restaurants and cafe options within good clear walking distance.

    A lot of unexpected fees suite room 1800 was super clean the shower kind of sucks don't put your clothes next to it because there's no door to actually close the shower no place to hang a towel, wash rag or your scrubber the valet park is a little ridiculous. And also take into consideration that this hotel is under construction but with him doing construction it did not bother us at all. And we seen so many people 6 to be exact that couldn't find check in the registration is on the 2nd level. And remember keep your key cards out you can't move up and down the elevator without it.

Valet service was great, fast and friendly, but again, expensive.

    The rooms were decently clean but had areas that were missed during cleaning. The valet staff was nice but every interaction we had with the front staff was awkward / unhelpful. There was also construction on the building that blocked the parking area and we were not made aware of where to bring our car so at one point we were unable to get back to our room. We were also told we could park our car for free however after parking we were told we could not park our own car and instead had to pay $60/night for Valet. Overall it was a decent stay but next trip we will look for somewhere else.
