It's old, updated and fresh, short on space
This property is located on the SW corner of downtown, and best serves the Federal Courthouse, Union Station, and A H Belo (The Dallas Morning News). It was built in 1925, and everything you will see inside is indicative of that. The rooms are adequately furnished with nice furniture and beds, fresh paint, and they have done the bathrooms with the newest and most modern trendy fixtures and apparatus. But, typical of buildings of this age, everything is small. The rooms are small, and the bathrooms are particularly lacking, and in renovating it there's little that could be done to remedy this. It's a reinforced concrete building, which gives an added level of fire safety, but you're stuck with where the walls are until the end. There's no room for more than one person to get ready at the same time, and there's no dressing table with a sink for the ladies. For the Mrs to be putting on her makeup while the Mr takes a shower would be a juggling act. The heating and cooling is central, controlled by thermostat, and worked perfectly, however they do offer you the privilege of opening a window, if you really want to jump out. Most rooms are just under $100, and for what you get the value is fair considering it's a downtown address. I probably won't be back because I live in the area, and it makes no sense to spend money on that, but I can't say I had a bad experience, or felt ripped off on any particular part of the room. It's good enough for what it does, but calling it a luxury hotel is stretching the truth just a bit far.
