Just got back from Dallas. Some thoughts on the place: It really is a stretch to be in the Galleria area - it's about 15 minutes on a good day between the two hotels, but you have to pay a toll going in and out ($0.45 each way). Hotel exterior was quite nice, and the hotel room was very good - for the purpose and price (the convention hotel cost would have been $100 more for the three nights). Room decor was quite nice (particularly the bathroom sink), and the room was pretty large, at about 350 sq ft. (35 sq m). I was a little disappointed in the attention to detail with service for Select Guest members (mostly little things): a) Didn't get complementary beverages on first morning until I went to the front desk. :) No mint on third night, plus some glasses left from that day. c) No e-mail of charges that was sent. d) [more major] Lake area is under construction; very hard to find a place to jog. Most of the scenery isn't really good in that area. Minibar prices were generally $6 or so for alcohol, $3 for soda, candy, pretzels, etc. Gym was pretty decent; good amount of equipment (free weights, machines, and cardio) as well as some fruits. Also weekend duck feeding (Fri-Sun, 11 AM). Please let me know if you have other questions on the place.
