We stayed at this hotel last month (Nov 2011). We were in Arlington for a concert at Cowboys Dance Hall & we also went into Dallas to see the JFK Memorial. On a whim, we drove by Cowboys Stadium & took a self guided tour of that as well, which by the way was super awesome & we recommend to everyone. They recommend at taxi guy (I forget his name) who took us to the dance hall & picked us up afterward so that was very appreciative. I've been in cities where you spend 3 hours looking for a taxi service.
Anyway, the hotel was great! It was cool (50s-60s) outside so when we kicked the heat on in the room it smelled like it was catching on fire. Maintenance came up immediately. Everything was fine. The hotel's location is fairly convenient. We were in a rental car with no GPS & didn't have much trouble finding it. It's right off the highway. Location is convenient to most everything I mentioned above, although it is a little bit of a drive to Dallas/JFK Memorial.
The bathrooms were nice size & the towels were soft. The hairdryer worked well. The beds were comfortable. Lots of pillows were provided & were soft. We slept really well here. Not too much noise. We thought the elevators were incredibly slow for having as few floors as the hotel has but we just took the stairs instead. We were only there for 3 days so we didn't use the fitness center & it was too cool to use the pool so can't advise on those.
Staff was friendly. We ate breakfast there every morning & it was better than some complimentary breakfasts I've had. Juice, milk, coffee, cold cereal, waffle maker, muffins/bagels. There was a hot item every day - scrambled eggs, sausage patties, etc. It was great for getting something in your belly before setting off on a full day of fun. She informed us at check-in that there is a 20% discount (I think) at the nearby IHOP if you show them your room key but we never used it.
Overall, we were happy with our stay. We would stay here again.
