The room wasn’t available for almost 40 minutes. Hotel room itself was clean and hotel bar was good. Breakfast was ok but not the best. It’s a perfect spot being right next to the Toyota Center where the concert we went to was held.

The WiFi didn’t work and I needed it to get my work done. The trash cans in the breakfast area were overflowing and even when a lady that seemed to be management kept going in circles seeing this mess she did nothing to correct the situation.

No complaints! Toyota Center is a 5 min walk. Note that valet overnight parking is $58/night + tax. There is some street parking but you have to look. $75 deposit required. Parking is taken out of the deposit.

Had a blanket with dried blood all over as soon as you turn it down. Took off bed and slept without it. Blanket needed to be checked better than just reusing without washing them. Room 728. Need another trash can besides the only one in bathroom. Should have taken a picture but it was too disgusting to look at. Really sicken.
