The late night attendant was amazingly helpful ran out of wine during the night, she graciously opened up the store inside the hotel and we were able to purchase. Bar is fantastic fun bartender. All around great hotel if you’re ever in Houston,Tx.

We had a great time. The hotel is very nice. The people are very kind and we love the atmosphere and the location couldn’t be better. The bar with Patty is the best place to be in the afternoons. We enjoyed her conversation and her attentions very much.
