My one night experience with my husband for our anniversary was great, until we checked out and made it home, only to find out valet scraped my 2024 truck on the passenger side door.

"Best hotel stay ever!"

Rented a room for two nights, mostly for the convenience to the activities we had planned. Had no idea that this was like a luxury high end hotel. Highly recommend it to anyone that would be staying in the Downtown area of Houston.
