The breakfast

The price was right. The beds were pretty comfortable if not a little firm for my liking. Shower was passable. I requested a ground floor room and they accommodated me. The room was cleaner than I expected.
Road noise and noise in general was an issue. Sometimes difficult to get someone to the front desk. Over all when I could get somebody at the desk it was a man and he was polite. Once during the day it took forever to get someone and when she finally broke down and came to the desk she was rude and dismissive.

Location right off the interstate
The room had a strange smell. The largest, softest towel had a large stain on it. There was damage to the ceiling above the shower and on the wall by the sink.

Beds were decent. Staff seemed friendly.
Smelled like smoke. We requested a non smoking room. Throughout the night we could smell cigarette smoke. Not sure if someone was smoking next to us or outside but it came into the room.

Nothing, horrible experience start to end
Website is very misleading! Staff was rude. My key was deactivated sometime after midnight the night (morning) before leaving. I had a function that didn't end until late, this had me arriving back at the hotel around 2am. Only to discover I was locked out of my room. When I went to the office for assistance, no one was there. I waited and waited; called the hotel and a corporate number repeatedly but got no answer. I was locked out of my room for over an hour!!!!!! When the employee finally resurfaced, it was very evident he had been sleeping. I would NOT recommend staying at this location, it was beyond bad!!

Nothing. The employees were not helpful, we request a extra pillow, and they don’t have any. The breakfast bar was awful.
They don’t clean the room everyday. You have to do your bed yourself.
Was not a good experience.

Nothing
The first room we were put in, the door wouldn't lock and the room was not even fit to stay in. We were moved into another room and the linens on the bed were stained and dirty and the floors were cracked and we ended up just leaving and going somewhere else. We lost our money because the room was non-refundable, but we were not about to stay at this hotel. The parking lot was full of construction materials, so only part of the lot was available for parking.

The breakfast desk said “kitchen closed” hours 6:30 -9:30am. There was 2 dispensers out with cereal, a bin with bread, a toaster and a carafe of milk. No one was at the reservation desk at 7:30 when we went so we dropped out key in the basket and left. The pillows and bed were comfortable.
The bath towels were so dingy and yellow and mismatched . And poorly hung and there was dried up pee stains on the toilet once I closed the toilet lid.

The rooms had roaches. Not clean at all! Found hairs in bed. Pictures they H‑E‑B on the website not in accordance to reality. Breakfast area filthy. The cereal containers very nasty and dirty. We chose to have breakfast elsewhere.

I didn’t like having to put a deposit down when I’ve stayed there a handful of times they should keep a record.

Old facility that has been remodeled, but many problems remain. Parking lacking, breakfast is a ZERO, towels were limited and stained, smell of “old” facility still exists. When I informed staff that room had not been cleaned, I was told, we only clean every other day.
