This was perfect for our visit to Space Center Houston - easy drive from the airport and clean. Worth noting we were here in April after Spring Break and before summer, so it was incredibly quiet … not sure that same review would happen in two months.

All rooms have a view of the water. If you like boardwalk activity, this is the place. It is right downstairs. Parking is comped in the attached garage, which is a definite plus. No bellman but carts are available. Dining choices are abundant and within walking distance.

There is a lot of construction going on at this time so it wasn't pretty. Most of the shops were closed. My favorite restaurant, The Flying Dutchman was permanently closed so that is a big disappointment.

Nice, but would have preferred more for price

Very Nice Hotel, but it just wasn't for me. The front desk was poorly manned. The hot tub jets did not work, although the hot tub was warm. No coffee in the lobby or information. I like to make a bigger cup. Had to pay for any extras. During the week many things were not open, such as ice cream. I had a construction view, so it wasn't as aesthetic as I would have liked.
