"Great location within walking distance of the DART bus station (we went to the State Fair so it was nice to be able to just walk to the shuttle and not worry about driving and parking anywhere), convenient underground parking. This is a beautiful hotel, room was the best I’ve stayed in for a while. Hotel staff were helpful and we had a delicious breakfast at the restaurant. Definitely would stay here again."
