We stayed for two nights at the Adolphus hotel. We picked it for its oldworld charm and being centrally placed in Dallas. We arrived late in the evening after travelling from the U. K. The room was fine but we could not get any cold water from the cold water tap. The water that came out was very hot. I was almost scalded in the shower. As it was late we arranged with reception to have their engineer look at it the following day. An engineer duly showed up but quickly said it was a major problem and was not sure whether he would be able to fix it quickly. He was the only member of staff to offer an appology.
After contacting reception we were upgraded to a suite. The water there was better but not much. The cold tap had to be turned on for several minutes and even then it never actually ran cold. We were told that it was an old hotel and they did have problems with the pipe work.
The temperature in Dallas was over 100 degrees. On the bright side a trip to the Rodeo bar and grill attached to the hotel gave us an excellent meal with pea nut shells scattered all over the floor. Apparently they do that sort of thing in Dallas Nice atmosphere.
