Lock at your doors at night
This is an older hotel, not all of which appears to have been remodeled as some would suggest. The lobby/breakfast area is newer and comfortable, and the small outdoor pool is pleasant when no one else is around. But the hallways and guest rooms (at least those on the first floor) felt a little worn and tired. This included doors that stuck, mattresses that sagged, a certain dreariness to the walls and carpet, and an a-c that had its own ideas about what the desired temperature should be. Of bigger concern was the difficulty in finding anyone at the front desk when we entered the empty lobby and tried to check-in shortly after 2:00 a.m. After a significant amount of waiting, we used our cell phone to “ring” the desk multiple times until someone from the back office finally came out to answer it. What is particularly troubling is that the same thing happened to us several years ago at this place -- the same empty lobby and apparent lack of security on the premise when we arrived late for check-in. Not a reassuring feeling. Out of town visitors should also take note – extensive construction, ill-timed lights, and a high concentration of strip malls make this one of the most congested areas for traffic in Ft. Worth.
