Lots of things to say. Cruz and Shelly were wonderful and took great care of us and our convention party. The area around the hotel has nothing to recommend it. There is one expensive restaurant in the parking lot and really no other restaurants. No grounds to speak of. The Galleria is a drive away, nothing within walking distance. Very far away from downtown Dallas, one our one-way Uber rides was $47. All that being said, we did have a very nice time, due to the helpfulness of the staff.
