Regresaré..!
Pros:

La ubicación perfecta dentro del mall, las habitaciones amplias y silenciosas. Todos los servicios disponibles. Buenos restaurantes cerca. Personal amable.

Cons:

El internet. El sistema no me gusta, me parece complicado y caro.
La TV, no pudimos conectarnos con nuestros datos, me obligaba a tener el internet de la habitación y eso, como ya dije, estaba complicado.
La puerta del baño hacía mucho ruido al recorrerla.

Read the fine print (even if there is none)
Pros:

We stayed at this hotel this past weekend while in town due to a family emergency, and unfortunately, our experience left us really disappointed.

There are definitely some positives. The location inside the Galleria is convenient, and the free parking is a big perk. For families, the standard king room worked well for us—the pull-out couch comfortably fit our three kids, which is not always easy to find.

That said, there are several downsides. The room only has a very small fridge, and there is just one microwave in the entire hotel, which is inconvenient for families. The pool was especially disappointing—it’s located on what feels like an empty rooftop, requiring people to walk across the roof and then stairs to access it. We’ve honestly had much nicer pool setups at lower-end hotels. We were excited to swim but as soon as we saw the pool we left.

Our biggest issue, though, was the lack of transparency and poor communication around the “resort fee” benefits.

When we checked in late Thursday night, the front desk explained that the resort fee included ice skating passes and a $30 dining credit. Because we spent most of our trip at the hospital, we planned to use those perks on our checkout day. After ice skating, I went to confirm how to use the dining credit and was then told it only applied to the night of our stay—something that was never mentioned at check-in and not clearly stated anywhere.

The employee I spoke with said she remembered checking us in and told us she would honor the $30 dining credit that day. She instructed us to charge our meal to the room and let the front desk know when we returned.

However, when we followed those instructions, another employee (Yvette) refused to honor it. She stated that not only was the credit not valid that day, but it also required two separate transactions to use—again, something that had never been communicated to us. She was dismissive and unwilling to help, despite us explaining exactly what we had been told earlier.

At the end of the day, this wasn’t about the $30—it was about the inconsistent information and lack of accountability. We made decisions based on what hotel staff told us, only to be met with resistance and poor customer service.

We actually had plans to return next month, but this experience completely changed our minds. It’s disappointing that something so small—and so easily fixable—resulted in losing repeat guests.

Expensive and shabby in a good location.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Everything else. Poor service, bad soundproofing and very expensive for a tired hotel. Our room was never even serviced after the second night of our stay. Very disappointing.

Pros:

Location

Cons:

The staff member at check-in got my reservation mixed with someone else even after looking at my ID, tried recharging me even though I prepaid via 3rd party. Supposedly corrected it but when I was leaving at the end of my stay, I decided to verify my check out was all good to go. Turns out the staff member still had not checked me in properly & I was going to be charged. The staff member at checkout was very knowledgeable and corrected everything, Thank you! Overall a great stay.
