Pros
Versatile outdoor function space transforms for year-round events
Contemporary social atmosphere in lobby and pool areas
Customizable catering options featuring new American comfort food
Located in University Park's quiet residential area with unique dining and shopping
Cons
6 miles distance from Dallas Love Field Airport
Seasonal pool availability limits year-round swimming options
“The location across from Southern Methodist University is definitely a selling point, and the vintage design gives it a certain character. While the on-site restaurant and pet-friendly policies are appealing, some reports mention issues with room upkeep and service consistency that might give potential guests pause. For travelers prioritizing location and unique style, it's worth considering with cautious expectations.”
