The CitizenM concept is basic. It is a comfortable hotel with few amenities, and a quirky ambience. The pool looked to be an afterthought. It is small and used a lot because of the Texas heat. Breakfast was not tasty or very good. Something about the preparation of foods like bacon and sausage in hotels. A miss. Otherwise the colored lighting etc. are cute, but after 5 minutes- meh. The lack of a simple light switch upon entering, and the shade issue closing when you leave is annoying.

The staff was fantastic throughout my entire stay, from check-in to check-out! The rooms match the photos perfectly—compact but packed with impressive technology. I really enjoyed being able to control everything easily using the iPad. While the room size is smaller than a typical hotel, I would definitely stay here again.

This is a cute boutique hotel! The only complaint I would say is the room is quite compact. Not a lot of room for two to move around in. The pool is amazing! Staff is very helpful & friendly!

Only disappointed with lack of choice for lunch or dinner. Was a rainy weekend would have been more convenient to stay in for a meal or 2 but choices were extremely limited.

Young crowd 20-35 I’d assume. Place is beautiful, area is perfect. The only con I would have to say is the room itself is ok but not the best due to gnats coming from the sink, I killed about 8 within my 2 day stay. Water from the shower leaked to the outside, not much but had to put a towel down. Would I stay again? Probably not.

Hotel staff was absolutely the best. While I could have used a different vibe for the decor and hotel itself the staff made up for it in every way. I can’t say enough about how good they were.
