Nice room but a lot of hidden fees

Room was nice- night desk young man was polite- asked a lot of personal questions- I expect the usual - are you here on business or pleasure but when I answered business appointment- he wanted to know what kind of appointment??! He also launched into the info he needed to tell me and talked so fast I could barely keep up. Parking at the Hotel is $25. Yes - you read that right. $25 to park your car. The hotel was nice but the extra fees and parking made my room cost a lot more than advertised.

The staff was amazing!! I stopped by along with my family at around 11:30am, just to store our luggage at the property before checking in at 3:00pm. However, the male associate offered to check us in already at no extra cost!! Ended up checking in almost 4 hours early for FREE. The staff was attentive, from the receptionists and shift managers, to the kitchen staff, and the housekeeping ladies. Everyone was friendly and welcoming to us. They had complimentary water with ice in the lobby, along with complimentary cookies which were very tasty. The free breakfast offered extensive options, including fresh fruit, cereals, oatmeals, coffee, sausages, scrambled eggs, potatoes, yogurt, bread, waffles, hot coffee, juices, water, among other offerings. The room was spacious enough and featured complimentary water bottles, a mini fridge and a microwave, along with the standard ironing board, iron, hair blower, etc. We did face two very small inconveniences, the first one was the fact that the room only had three towels (we were a party of four), but I received an additional set after requesting an extra towel. The mini fridge in the room had some issues with powering up, but it was due to the cord being some what loose. There's also a free shuttle that we didn't get to use, but it is an option for those who would like to use it. Large homeless population around downtown, but not the hotel's fault. We still felt pretty safe in the area.

We stayed here one night before flying home after a cruise. The front desk staff were wonderful! Check in was quick and easy. Our room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. It was nice to have coffee and a mini fridge right in the room. The tv provided a lot of channels. The hotel offered a free shuttle within 1.5 miles of the hotel. We used it to go for dinner at Rustic. There are quite a few restaurants within the 1.5 miles. Our driver Nancy was a joy to spend those few minutes with. Breakfast was pretty good. It’s what you would expect. Loved the Texas state shaped waffles! There are hot and cold options, juice and coffee/tea. Restaurant was clean. If I had to stay in downtown Houston again, I would definitely stay here.
