It was the Marriott Houston Medical Center, but I was satisfied, overall, with the property - the associates were accommodating, helpful, and friendly. In fact, I was also impressed with their hors d'oeuvres in the lounge because they really were almost more of a dinner than hors d'oeuvres. Every night, they had salad, grilled vegetables, cheese, crackers, and then at least two entree sort of dishes like chicken, shrimp, or beef. So, overall, the lounge was good, but the dessert just seemed odd because the first day was as described and the second day, I heard the attendants telling people during dinner to come right at 7:30 for dessert because it goes very quickly and they only put out five trays. I did go that night at 7:40 PM and there were maybe six to eight more desserts left total.

I guess part of why I was surprised is because this property has 26 floors, so it is a considerable size - it's not like a six-floor property, so I would think they have enough elite guests to perhaps warrant more desserts that last longer.
