Mostly VERY pleasant. Most of the wait staff, hosts/hostesses were most cordial. Housekeeping great.
Cons:

The bartender was awful: rude, slow, all around unpleasant. Why take the job? We tip 35% on drinks, excessive, I know. No thank you, of course. She hurt the entire reputation of the otherwise splendid staff. fire her!

Weekend Stay to visit with family and friends.
Pros:

We really enjoyed our stay, our suite was very clean and comfortable. The hotel staff were very kind and helpful, we just had a service issue during our breakfast and I made a note on the receipt for the management, that is why I not give them five stars! We will definitely stay here again. Thank you

Nice hotel, close to many local attractions
Pros:

The hotel was clean, smelled good and had a light and airy feel to it. The tub in the room was massive. We chose the poolside room. Having an outdoor seating area connected to our room was the best. All of the staff we interacted with were extremely pleasant.

The free local transportation was an absolute delight for us. It gave us the ability to explore the local park, zoo, museums, etc.

The in house restaurant had good food, but for me personally, it was a little pricey. The other guests were definitely more on the fancy side compared to us but we didn't feel completely out of place. Might have been the fact we had a pizza eating first grader with us and the people walking by were generally in evening wear.

My only criticism would be the pool itself. I think I would have still chosen a poolside room just for the semi private sitting area but the pool was I believe at a four foot depth the whole length across. My child couldn't touch and isn't a strong swimmer yet so we had to hold him the entire time. He normally wants to be in the water 24/7 but after a few hours on day one, he didn't want to use it anymore. Happily enough the local park had an amazing splashpad we spent the day at.

Medical center convenience with clean comfortable rooms
Pros:

Beautiful location, near the medical district. Short distance to NRG field and a short distance to downtown Houston. Great dining at Safina.

This is the 2nd time I have lodged at this hotel. I will be back.

Excellent Location and Staff
Pros:

This is a very nice hotel and great location for the Medical Center Area, which has numerous specialty hospitals, including MD Anderson Cancer Center, Children’s Hospital, etc. Tha staff is very thoughtful and well trained in dealing with both guests just visiting the area and those that are their for treatments, they watch out for you, help you as needed, check on you if they haven’t seen you in a while etc. The location is also great as it’s near the Museum District and Rice Village it’s shops and restaurant options..

TV Casting Service Issue
Pros:

The television casting did not function. The front desk immediately dispatched someone who was unable to get it to work. The dispatched person indicated he would contact the “it guy” who would soon come to help. That never happened. So I was without casting. I was disappointed that a service commitment was ignored.

Also, housekeeping neglected to re-stock the facial tissue, which was empty. Fortunately we were able to use toilet paper for that purpose

Definitely not four star service.

We did however find the breakfast quality and service to be outstanding.

Better than some other hotels in this price range. Could make some minor improvements.
Pros:

My room was ready on both of my visits this month. I appreciated being able to check in a bit early. I enjoyed the added benefits of the pure wellness rooms. However, I was disappointed in the low water pressure. One room had moldy grout behind the sink in the bathroom and both rooms had dusty baseboards which I felt to be unacceptable for a pure wellness room. The desk staff were friendly and professional but did not seem to be willing to do anything beyond the basics required of them. I expected someone might offer me a cart as they watched me struggle back and forth with my belongings from self parking. That did not happen. I was just quietly observed by multiple employees. Despite my discussion with one of the employees regarding my discounted medical rate and the following weeks upcoming visit, no mention was made to me that I had failed to get the discounted rate for the second visit. I did feel like she must have noticed that and just didn't mention it. It's these kind of small gestures that really make a big difference. Despite these things, I will likely return.
