The elevators are slow, rooms small and outdated, concierge lounge is closed tight at 9:30, my TV is probably no larger than 15". No late night water or soda, the door is locked tight.

The housekeeping is above average and the medical centers are easily accessible.

• Pros: Medical center, small, outdated rooms
• Cons: , slow elevators

Dependable digs boast consistent service and ample amenities.

The Scene
Overlooking the world-famous Texas Medical Center, this hotel is frequented by visiting medical professionals and families with loved ones making use of nearby facilities. Architecturally, it's quite conservative, and its subdued sand-colored exterior could almost pass for a modern hospital were it not for the bright red Marriott sign at the top.

The Details
This 26-floor hotel includes an executive floor, 15 meeting rooms and air-conditioned walkways to nearby hospitals and medical schools. Three hundred eighty six rooms are decorated with the business-medical specialist in mind. Whether visiting for a day or a month, guests will find everything they need for a seamless stay. Work desks, speaker phones, voicemail and data ports create an office on the road, while wet bars and kitchens (in some rooms) provide convenience. The hotel offers in-room daily newspaper, coffee, cable TV and movies. The city's Museum District is also nearby.
