Pros:

The location for Houston Rodeo is fabulous

Cons:

The parking was horrible, but they did say it was under construction. The bathroom sinks are too small, un able to keep items around it.

Plutôt bien.
Pros:

L'hôtel est très propre, l'accueil est parfaite à n'importe quelle heure. Les chambres sont relativement confortable et le petit déjeuner est bien. Le service de navette pour les zones à proximité est idéal, petit bémol, lorsque vous êtes étranger et que vous avez une eSim données (comme c'est quasiment toujours le cas) vous ne pouvez pas les rappeler pour qu'ils reviennent vous chercher.
Petite suggestion : Les machines à laver sont un plus, mais une pancarte indiquant qu'on peut faire faire de la monnaie et acheter de la lessive à l'accueil serait pratique pour ceux qui n'ont pas l'habitude.

Cons:

Même au 11e étage les bruits de la rue s'entendent beaucoup (visiblement à Houston, il y a des concours de pot d'échappement la nuit 😅)

Peut-être qu'on est passé à côté de Houston, mais cette ville ne nous a pas séduit, et les abords de l'hôtel le soir et le week-end n'ont pas l'air très safe.

Pros:

Otaq təmiz idi, səhər yeməyi yaxşı idi

Cons:

Otağın əvvəldən 30 kvadrat metr olduğu yazılmışdı, amma bizə ən kiçik otağı vermişdilər,heç 20 kvadrat metr olmazdı, baqajları açmağa yer az idi.
