Past Its Prime
We spent Labor Day weekend in this downtown Dallas hotel. It is very conveniently located to the various JFK historic sights. In fact they are within very easy walking distance. The hotel is in need of immediate renovation. As Priority members we were upgraded to a balcony room. Unfortunately the sliding door to the balcony was sealed shut with large bolts. The actual balcony did not look safe to stand on so maybe that was the reason for bolting the doors shut. The king room was of sufficient size but all of the furniture and fixtures were very worn. Our room had a typical cabinet for a microwave and small dorm size refrigerator. Unfortunately the refrigerator was missing. Friends in a similar room had a refrigerator but no microwave. Evidently when the appliances stop working, they just remove them. As others have mentioned the nightclub brings a very undesirable element to the hotel. The weekend we were there fights broke out outside and inside the hotel and the police were called several times. Just did not feel safe at night in the hotel even though a keycard is necessary to work the elevator. I am shocked that this hotel is able to maintain its Crowne Plaza designation.
