Beautiful hotel. Super clean. Breakfast was delicious. The pool was warm in January which was nice. We appreciated the safety measures including key access only to the elevators. Every single staff member greeted us or spoke kindly. We will be back. It was great being steps away from the Riverwalk.

The hotel in itself is quite nice, has a nice lobby, restaurant, and bar. Room service was good, asked for a meal to the pool area, they brought it fast. Rooms are big, clean, and modern, except for the bathroom which doesnt look as new but still good nonetheless. Walkable, convenient, close to city center. I'd stay here again, specially for the hot jacuzzi upstairs.

It was a nice hotel to stay at and a perfect location. The hot tub/pool was great. I would stay there again. But you can tell it is an older property, and lacked customer service at the front office. The breakfast and Dinner in the Ambler restaurant was really good, customer service an excellent in that area.
