Quartier commerçant Arlington's Entertainment District − Vacances sur la plage

Grand hôtel bien situé dans downtown mais accueil décevant et cher par rapport aux prestations certes correctes mais loin d’être celles d’un 5 étoiles ailleurs

We chose The Joule as one of the highlights of our Texas trip, expecting a true five-star family experience. Unfortunately, our stay was disappointing. At check-in, one of our two rooms was still unavailable after 5:00 p.m. (although check-in is guaranteed from 3:00 p.m.), and despite requesting rooms on the same floor as our children, we had to accept rooms on different floors. Our room was also missing bottled water and a coffee machine, which had to be requested. We were also surprised to pay a $35 daily hotel service fee, supposedly covering amenities such as the pool and in-room services, yet the service did not match the charge. Housekeeping had still not serviced our room by late afternoon, bottled water was again missing, and the overall experience fell well below five-star standards. The biggest disappointment was the pool. By late afternoon, many guests were drinking heavily and several appeared intoxicated. The atmosphere felt more like an adults-only party than a luxury hotel welcoming families. That evening, loud intoxicated guests in the hallway kept us awake until we had to call security. We were also disappointed that ongoing construction around the hotel was not disclosed before our arrival. The hotel is beautifully designed, but the service and overall experience did not justify its five-star rating or the additional service fee. Families should know that the atmosphere is geared more toward adults seeking a lively social scene than a relaxing luxury st

The lack of communication between staff members to guest was atrocious.

This place is one of worst apartments we have rented from. Per email we’re supposed to have code for the key box 72 hours. Then it said 30 mins before check in. No code was ever given. We had to then call 4 numbers to even a property manager to let us in. When you walked into apartment all you could smell was weed. We finally got into apartment at 345. We change clothes and head to pool for an hour. Which there is no signage or map to property any where. Mind this is why rented this space for weekend was to be able to relax at the pool only to find out it was chain shut down. When asked the manager on text because your contact info didn’t have enough service mind that was supposed to be 24/7. Now let’s go sercuirty. While showering to get ready for the evening I hear a knock on the door. I’m in the middle of the shower and didn’t answer it. My people were inside the apartment the maintenance man walked in apartment. And was knocking on the bathroom door. If this a not a violation I don’t know what is. To find out he was in wrong apartment. Now let’s go main security issue. The main door doesn’t lock. You shut the door and you can open right up with no keys. The bedroom door have key on the living room side but no way to lock it on inside so we are having to secure all belongs 24/7 because our apartment doesn’t lock or even the bedrooms. How well do you think you could sleep. Let talk about the little details. Have you actually tried to sleep on bed ?

Everything was perfect !
