Nice hotel in North Houston
The furnishings and decor of this hotel are top-notch. The rooms are very comfortable, quiet, and functional, with a great office chair, desk, sofa, and comfortable bed. The Bathroom is nice and clean, great shower and bath amenities. The internet service is excellent, but expensive (though included on executive floor). Breakfast buffet in the lobby is also very good, but expensive - stay on the executive floor for included continental breakfast and snacks. There is a Starbucks open in the lobby open mornings. The restaurant/bar just seems like it isn't really trying - I only ate there once in 10 days.
The self service laundry for this large hotel consisted of only one pair of machines on the 3rd floor. This is really disappointing for a hotel of this caliber. I guess they expect you to have it laundered. Another disappointment was a lack of power outlets on the nightstands - I really dislike moving furniture to access an outlet on the wall to charge my phone.
The neighborhood the hotel is located in isn't that great, although the grounds are well kept and security is ever-present. The mall across the street is mostly defunct, and although there's fast food nearby I found myself driving more than 5 miles for decent restaurants. However it was very convenient for my work location with great access to the highways.
