Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:
"Best hotel stay ever!"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
Rented a room for two nights, mostly for the convenience to the activities we had planned. Had no idea that this was like a luxury high end hotel. Highly recommend it to anyone that would be staying in the Downtown area of Houston.
