Pros:

It was a nice hotel. Our room was large, clean, and comfortable.

Cons:

If you want Housekeeping to tidy up your room, you have to request it.
I asked on 3 different occasions, and it wasn't done. So I finally saw Housekeeping in the hallway, and she finally did it on our 4th day of our stay. My partner and I were taking out the trash ourselves, and I was ready to purchase TP!!

Awful customer service from staff
Pros:

Location

Cons:

The Staff. Tiffany is still there. Tiffany is the one who tried to attack me came to the room bamming on the door, which was out of order and unnecessary. She also was threatening me. They were gossiping about me. Very poor Customer Service. I’ve paid all of my bills in full.

Also, the room was raggedy. The plumbing was not good. The floor was dirty. The sink had very slow drain drainage and the refrigerator was broken.

The stay, price and location was ideal for what we were staying there but staff shouldn’t be bothering guest until at th
Pros:

The price and location was great, I did get a good deal on the hotel thru booking.com though and location near the Dallas World Aquarium was why I think location was ideal

Cons:

On the morning of me and my bfs last stay, we were WOKEN UP by the staff at around 9am asking if we were checking out, mind you check out is at 11a and they have complimentary stay until 12pm so being woken up at 9am ish by the clerk staff was so weird - she was just “asking if we were checking out”, then the cleaning lady came by 30 mins later! It really felt like they were trying to “boot” us out of there. I’ve never had this experience at any hotel I’ve stayed before.

Crummy hotel. Definitely not worth your money.
Pros:

The history

Cons:

Everything was dirty. We could barely see the sky.
When we arrived we could feel the dust,we started sneezing.
Moreover we didn’t have room service for 2 days (we were staying 3). The only day we had it was because we went down and stayed until they send someone.
Before booking they told us parking was included but when we arrived they told us the only option was a valet parking ($50 per night).
