The Royal Sonesta Houston Galleria

First of all, bear in mind you will have to pay for self parking in addition to the ResortPass fee ($12 + tax for 0 - 3 hours). The check-in process took about 5 mins at the front desk. There is no food or drink service at the pool, but there is a coffee shop on the first floor that sells some food & beverages including alcohol that you can take to the pool with you. You have to carry a key card with you to access the pool (so don't leave it in your bag when you go to the bathroom like I did or you'll be locked out). The pool was small. Clean, but small. No ambiance or Summer vibes whatsoever just plain Jane concrete walls & a rectangle pool with a circular hot tub. There are only about 6 loungers available (there was only 1 left when I arrived) & maybe 10 chairs. Bathroom was close & clean. Staff was friendly. For the purpose of simply swimming & laying out it works perfectly fine, just don't expect to feel like you're at a high end resort pool.
