Nice hotel but

The hotel is in a great location very close to the concert I was attending. The staff at the front desk were nice friendly and accommodating. I had 3 issues one my air conditioner in my room wasn’t cooling properly. My second issue it was very hard to get additional face towels I requested them multiple times before I received them. My last issue was the last day of my stay house keeping was at my door at 8 am asking me what time I was checking out. This was a huge inconvenience for me I already knew check out time was 11 I had an alarm set to wake up in plenty of time. Then the lady came back again and asked what time I was leaving or was I staying longer at 10 am I was already getting my things together to leave. I felt very rushed out which I did not appreciate at all.

The breakfast options were phenomenal. The pool was a lovely size and mostly empty with comfortable lounge couches set around. The room was one of the cleanest I have been in, in a very long time. The beds were softer than most hotel beds, which I appreciate since I like a plush mattress. It was nice to not wake up sore! The shower was wonderful as well. We enjoyed one night of staying in and got drinks and appetizers/dinner at the bar. The drinks were some of the better I have had and the bartender was quite skilled. We always stay at Hilton properties, but this was my first time at a Tru and I was impressed!

This was an excellent hotel, the only negative is that it’s in downtown Houston. It didn’t feel safe at all but from our room we could see the homeless sleeping on the sidewalk.
