The Belmont Hotel in Dallas charges the rate of an upscale luxury hotel, however provides the comfort and amenities of a Super 8. And all of this is done under the guise of being "trendy".
Some of the highlights:
-Bad neighborhood.
-Unpaved path from the sidewalk to my room (gravel).
-Bed which was 2" off of the ground.
-Paper thin towels.
-12" TV .. TWELVE INCHES. I fell asleep watching Hulu on my laptop because the TV was too small to see.
-Plastic seating (think "Little Tykes" children play furniture).
-Very limited and difficult to negotiate parking.
-Futon instead of sofa in the living area -- and a very uncomfortable one.
We were booked for 5 nights and ended up staying for just one. Abject failure in being the trendy luxury hotel it claims to be.
