8.4/10 Very Good! (2,208 reviews)
Area was super ghetto around it so basically had to valet part and pay $60/night
Homeless everywhere around the hotel, there was no microwave anywhere inside the hotel which is absurd
Weed smell was wafting inside our room all night and there was all kinds of loud noises coming from around

Go ahead and get as close to the stadium as you can. We had a hefty walk and there was plenty of parking much closer.
1/5 - Terrible

Went to Red River game at the Fair. Horrible choice for Dallas to have both. Shoulder to shoulder people. The worst fair experience I have had. I ended up leaving early.
