“Graduate By Hilton Dallas has a appealing boutique charm due to its proximity to Southern Methodist University. I noted the pet-friendly policies and heated outdoor pool, although some past visitors mentioned issues with cleanliness and consistent service; the valet parking fee also seems a bit steep. I think the historical design and location are definite positives, but potential guests should be aware of possible inconsistencies.”
