Great spot to spend a couple days and explore Houston. Not right on top of the museum district but definitely close enough. Room felt very clean and housekeeping came daily to take towels and straighten up. The location is very convenient and a short walk to Levy Park if you have children. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again.
