Nice hotel but

The hotel is in a great location very close to the concert I was attending. The staff at the front desk were nice friendly and accommodating. I had 3 issues one my air conditioner in my room wasn’t cooling properly. My second issue it was very hard to get additional face towels I requested them multiple times before I received them. My last issue was the last day of my stay house keeping was at my door at 8 am asking me what time I was checking out. This was a huge inconvenience for me I already knew check out time was 11 I had an alarm set to wake up in plenty of time. Then the lady came back again and asked what time I was leaving or was I staying longer at 10 am I was already getting my things together to leave. I felt very rushed out which I did not appreciate at all.

The breakfast options were phenomenal. The pool was a lovely size and mostly empty with comfortable lounge couches set around. The room was one of the cleanest I have been in, in a very long time. The beds were softer than most hotel beds, which I appreciate since I like a plush mattress. It was nice to not wake up sore! The shower was wonderful as well. We enjoyed one night of staying in and got drinks and appetizers/dinner at the bar. The drinks were some of the better I have had and the bartender was quite skilled. We always stay at Hilton properties, but this was my first time at a Tru and I was impressed!

This was an excellent hotel, the only negative is that it’s in downtown Houston. It didn’t feel safe at all but from our room we could see the homeless sleeping on the sidewalk.

Not impressed

When we arrived to check in our room was not ready. After waiting about 2 hours we came back to check in. The lady at the desk asked if we needed an ADA room? I said yes, that is what I had booked. She had to ho check to see if she had one available. While waiting the lobby had drink stains on the tables and chairs. Not impressed. The bar was suppose to open at 4 and no one was there. It just seemed wierd that if they were so busy and full of guests that thier would be more activity going on. It was odd. The room was very simple. 2 beds, 1 chair, 1 desk. We had 4 people and they only gave us 2 sets of towels. We had to call for those. The shampoo dispenser was out of shampoo. Breakfast was blah. My Daughter would mot eat anything. For this hotel being so new anf in Houston I would expect alot more. I will not stay her again.

Nice place to stay. It’s walking distance from Toyota Center and Daikin Park. The pillows are nice. The service is great . The bad part is parking. Trying to a parking place without paying or getting your car towed is a challenge.
