This was the second hotel we stayed in while visiting Texas for baseball park tours. Started in Dallas then drove to Houston. This hotel lived up to the reviews it has been given here on expedia. I did have a small probem when first arriving and checking the beds. The both beds had Some unknown stains on the sheets, but a Fast trip to lobby and spoke to Devin at front desk and the condition was corrected. The rooms clean very nice shower and view. Stayed in room 1019. Lobby was very spacious and the breakfast Was ok. The people that tend to the breakfast area and clean the tables and floor were excellent. The staff Treated us great. The Area was good didnt encounter any problem's. The hotel uses the GALLERIA mall in its description and the mall is huge to say the least but from what we saw every store was extremely high end brand names. First night ate at Cheesecake Factory in the mall it was Excellent as usual. If i ever return to Houston i would definitely stay there again. ***I didnt like PAYING $28 to self park my car in the lot behind the hotel. Im very tired of paying For stuff in hotels that should be and at one Point were, free for guests. The hotels are adding HUNDREDS of dollars to the cost of staying at their hotels by charging these huge fees like parking and the BS “resort fees” They been charging the last few years. If you are looking for a place to stay in Houston This was a solid choice.

This property felt very safe I loved that you had to have a key card to enter the hotel and the parking garage the breakfast was delicious and a good bit of options to choose from I was very pleased with its selection. The hotel and rooms are very clean and the staff was very friendly. It’s close enough to shopping without being to close to all the busyness we will definitely stay again on our next visit. I never once felt unsafe
