I was attending a SkateAmerica event in North Dallas so I checked in to the Hyatt Place in Allan, Texas for the night.

This hotel is less than 10 minutes from Allen High school as well as the Credit Union of Texas Event Center and the surrounding bars and restaurants.

Perfect for if you are attending a school football game or an event at the Event Center.

The rate was between $150 and $200 for the night. I had a free night award available, I know that is not the best use of a free night but it was expiring so I made good use.

Hyatt Place’s are really nice hotels, the rooms are slightly bigger than normal with space for a full sofa that becomes a fold out bed.

Checking in:

Parking is free around the hotel so we parked and went to check in. There is just a single check-in spot at the desk which also has the fridge with drinks and snacks for purchase.

Soda, water, coffee, sandwiches, sweets, jerky, other small snack items are all available 24 hours a day.

The lamps in the breakfast room were really lovely. Here is a picture, see what you think.

The room:

This is the sofa with footstool and side table. Rather a pleasant space in the room.

As you can see the room has plenty of space. On the right you can see the sofa, it folds out into a wide sofa-bed.

a room with two beds and a desk

There is a tv unit with a desk attached. Lamps, coffee machine, drawers, place for the fridge, and the tv.

Here are the coffee and tea supplies, the ice bucket, the fridge, as well as the cupboard with luggage rack, iron and ironing board and extra bedding.

All these notes were on the wall at the desk. I like the breakfast instructions, earlier is quieter, later is busier.

This is the view out of the window, nothing special but nice and light.

The bathroom:

Here is the shower in the bath. Basic but it has nice water pressure. Toiletries are by KenetMD Haircare and Skincare.

A small single basin but enough space for my toiletries.

Hotel facilities:

This is the area for waiting for the elevator on my floor. This washer and drier were on my floor too.

A rather pleasant pool area is available. There is a place to barbecue while the family is swimming. I imagine it is busy during summer.

a pool with chairs and a chair in the back

A pleasant sized gym is also available. There are treadmills, bicycles, individual weights, a weight exercise machine and other items.

In the lobby is an office area with computers and printer that you can use if so needed.

Conclusion:

This is a great hotel to stay in. The rooms are larger, the breakfast is free and well worth it, there is a gym, pool and washing machine.

Everything you need for a successful stay. Enjoy it.

I must say, this looks like a very nice place. They should have a hot tub by the pool, tho.
