Birthday Disaster
The shower flooded the bathroom floor and wet all our clothing. Maintenance, not the front desk, changed the room. Mold was in the shower of the new room. No help or assistance from the front desk. No offer to dry clean clothes. Front desk did not check on us to make sure we were moved into the new room successfully. However, the night Auditor gae a discount the next day.

Fun in Houston
My cousins and I came down for the Beyoncé concert and had a blast. Whitehall made sure we were comfortable and got everything we needed from directions to water in our room.

10/10 Exceptional

We were pleasantly surprised that our stay would be so nice! We got back late from an Astros game and went to the bar. The bartender was kind and easy to talk to. He even got our order in for food when the kitchen was literally about to close for the night! The lobby smelled fresh and clean, the elevator also smelled so nice! I usually NEVER walk barefoot in hotel rooms but did this time and was so incredibly impressed with the clean hardwood floors!!!

Overrated
They didn’t tell us about the $40 for parking until we got there. The restroom was too small. We were never offered help to the room. The food was overrated. No honesty in your add.
