Me and my friend stayed here for 7 nights as we were attending Wrestlemania, but also wanted to visit the DFW area.
Airport Very simple and straight forward arriving in DFW from the UK. If you aren’t driving like us, you can either get a cab to the hotel, or hop on the Dart and get off at the Urban Center station. Once you’re at the station give the hotel a call and they’ll send their shuttle bus to collect you.
Hotel in general The hotel was very clean and well maintained. It has a small shop inside which is reasonably priced compared to the 7/11 next door lol
Hotel Location There are plenty of bars and restaurants within 15 minutes walk of the hotel. But further afield you can head into Dallas or Fort Worth by train or cab.
Hotel Room A basic room but very clean, and had everything you’d need for a stay. The bed is very comfortable, and the air con worked very well thankfully due to the heat! Wi-Fi The Wi-Fi was fast and stable, and allowed me to keep in contact with my family back home.
Staff
I mainly dealt with the reception staff, who were all lovely. The housekeeping were always visible and everything was spotless. Shuttle Bus Will take you too and from the local area up until 10pm. We used this for the first 2 days to get a footing in the area, then once we knew where we was we walked to most places.
Local Area There is a canal and Lake you can walk around which is really relaxing in the morning. Do yourself a favour and visit The a corner Bakery and The Ginger Man in Las Colinas, and also Nosh & Bottle and the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema at the Music Factory. However all the people I met in the local area were awesome so do check out as much as you can. Wider Area Not too far from Dallas where there is plenty to do. Either a couple of dollars on the Dart or around $18-$20. There is plenty to do in Dallas which is well documented, but if you get the time please do go visit Fort Worth and get down to the Stock Yards. A taxi from Fort Worth though is higher though at about $35-$40.
All in all... I’d highly recommend this hotel to anyone. If you’re visiting Dallas, I’d say stay here so you’re close enough to visit but can retreat to a quieter area. Book an extra day or two as well to take in the wider DFW area.
