Girls trip

So cute and clean, older hotel but it’s being kept up best as possible. I could see some wallpaper coming up and some paint needed but that’s truly just visual quality. Staff was nice and valet was quick. This place is central and an easy uber to bars in main st and restaurants! Seemed really quiet and safe, pool was nice and I love the caramella latte from the buffalo bayou!

My husband and I spent 2 nights here for the Breezy bowl and I moved the staff they were so nice and they explained everything to me with no problem. We had to get use to the valet parking since there’s no self parking but with a hotel as nice as this I’m not even mad at it! We were on the 12th floor and enjoyed the view of the city. We will definitely be staying here again!

Comfy Beds & Great Spot in the City

The beds here are really comfortable, and the location is just right—super convenient and close to everything. It’s near the Astros stadium, which was a big plus for me. There’s also a lot to do around the area, with plenty of restaurants and things to explore. A great spot for both relaxation and fun!
