My stay at JW Marriott Houston Downtown was a mix of luxury and a few hiccups. The room was beautifully designed and incredibly comfortable with a lovely soaking tub to unwind in after a long day. However, the service had some inefficiencies, particularly during check-in and at valet. While I appreciated the attentive staff, there were moments where miscommunication disrupted the flow of my experience.

My stay at the JW Marriott Houston Downtown was luxurious and comfortable, but I faced a few hiccups that affected my overall experience.

I recently stayed at the JW Marriott Houston Downtown and had a mixed experience. While the check-in was friendly and I appreciated the complimentary lounge access, the room I originally booked was cramped and musty. The hotel has a refreshed look and the staff was generally helpful, but I faced issues with room upgrades and lounge access that really affected my stay.
