“While its downtown location near Town Lake is a definite plus, reports of maintenance and cleanliness issues give pause; however, I noted that guests consistently praise the staff's friendliness and helpfulness. A property with potential, it seems ownership needs to invest more in the upkeep and overall conditions. For now, manage your expectations.”
