The parking was great and overall our stay was just fine. I was disappointed that the pool access was in a different hotel owned by the same management company and was going to cost me $10/person. As a paying hotel guest, that was more than I was willing to spend. Then the second night our room started to smell like sewage. To be fair, it was our AC bringing in air from outside, but that one was rough. The young woman at the desk helped a lot by doing something to the unit. I assume it was to recirculate the air to NOT bring in outside air. That helped a lot. I almost asked for a reimbursement and I would have fought for one if the smell hadn't abated.
But the room was fine. Beds ok-first night was hard to get comfy, but second night was fine. I would stay there again if and when we ever go to Waco. Great location to downtown but yet not in the middle of the one-way streets, etc.
Stayed in Waco for the football game! Great walking distance to the stadium and downtown. All new and fresh!
