“I'll never stay here again!”

Nice staff, good food, poor service. Room without a window. Called for an iron the iron was sticky. Had to phone for another one. No toiletries left in the room for 2 nights. Housekeeping did not lock my door when they finished. Need I say any more.....NEVER, NEVER, NEVER again will I stay there.

“Close to SMU Campus”

We have stayed at this property several times It's proximity to the SMU campus is great for visiting kids attending the school. But there are a couple issues. First are the odors here. I have stayed here several times and you either face the overwhelming smell of sewer gas, or like this time a over perfumed carpet freshener. The problem for me is this hotel also allows dogs. I dont know if they restrict which rooms have dogs staying in them but my allergies tell me this was the last time I can stay here.

“Under Construction!”

The hotel is small and well kept. Unfortunately for us, it was under construction while we were there. Staying on the 3rd floor, directly outside our window, loud banging started at 7:15 am! After a call to complain, the front desk agreed to move us to a room on the opposite side of the hotel (why they don't fill up that side first is beyond me) and we were told construction was not supposed to start until 9 am. The noise did not stop and we were already awake anyway...damage done! I recommend staying here, but wait until the expansion is complete!

“Great food, a little smoky”

Does not have a relationship with the Larry North Fitness Center as advertised. Great restaurant if you don't mind eating in a room with no windows that feels like a basement. Comfortable bed. My room smelled a little smoky at times. Staff seemed a little young and, at times, like everyone was getting trained. Very friendly and trying to please at all times.

“Mandatory Valet Parking”

Just know you'll be tagged for an additional $13/day for valet parking. They do it more to control their parking spaces (which are very limited) than for convenience of the guests. Seems a little silly to pay for valet parking and then watch the attendant park your car about 20' from where you got out.

“great location- not-so-great beds”

The location of the Hotel Lumen couldn't have been better especially if you have business with SMU. There is not another hotel this close to campus. The price was good also especially for the location. The staff was very nice also. My only issue was with the beds. We had three guests in our room so we needed 2 beds. They were doubles, not queens, and very uncomfortable. Mattresses sagged in the middle. We only stayed one night and I did not report this to the staff. If you can get a king bed room, you should. They also would not let us have a roll-away in a king room because they claim the rooms are too small. Only the suites have room for roll-aways and they are really expensive. We would likely stay there again if we thought we could swing the price of two rooms.

Shopping

Northpark Mall is a stones throw away. Doesn't get better than that!

Dining

Pappadeaux is nearby and fabulous.
