Everything was great. The agents I encountered at the desk throughout the day were very friendly and helpful. The hotel itself was nice and the room was spacious and very clean and it was close to where I needed to be downtown which made it so much easier for me.

They spent money on making the lobby area and bar area look nice. My room was clean. It's close to the Moody center and safe to walk at night. The worst thing was the mattress. Absolutely horrible. I placed 4 pillows down to make some padding as just laying on it caused hip and low back pain from lack of support after 20 minutes. The mattress is clearly old and worn. I would ignore the plywood frame with wrapping paper around the wood or the pealing wallpaper if I just had a good mattress. Room 524. I dare the owner to try and sleep in that bed.
