8.2/10 Very Good! (602 reviews)
Really hated the expensive valet parking. We used the shuttle service and our driver was a delight! But holey moley the cost to park was ridiculous. It appears to be like this all over Houston but come on.

This is my first time treating myself to a realllly nice hotel and when I say they didn’t disappoint.. this was a great experience. Extra clean, smelled great, lots of amenities, friendly staff, easy check in & out process. The bathrooms were so luxurious I spent most of my time in there. Obsessed is an understatement.
