Club Quarters Hotel Downtown, Houston
Generally, I enjoyed the hotel. It was clean and centrally located. My only complaints are that the rooms are on the small side, and the rooms do not have a mini fridge.

There was a lot to do, but it was so spread out and getting around was difficult. Unless you want to walk a ton of miles, you need to take a shuttle to get to places which takes like 20 min for 2 miles with al the stops
