(2) What hours is it accessible — 24/7, daytime only, or reservation-based? (3) When was it last renovated or replaced — newer pet-friendly amenities often need less maintenance and break down less often. (4) Are there usage limits, guest policies, or quiet-hour restrictions? (5) What's the actual commute from this building to Texas Children's Hospital in normal traffic?
