They spent money on making the lobby area and bar area look nice. My room was clean. It's close to the Moody center and safe to walk at night. The worst thing was the mattress. Absolutely horrible. I placed 4 pillows down to make some padding as just laying on it caused hip and low back pain from lack of support after 20 minutes. The mattress is clearly old and worn. I would ignore the plywood frame with wrapping paper around the wood or the pealing wallpaper if I just had a good mattress. Room 524. I dare the owner to try and sleep in that bed.

Beds were comfortable and clean. Arrived after midnight and there was no one at the front desk so we tried to use our Bluetooth key, which didn’t work requiring us to go back down to the desk and get an actual key. Shower could’ve used a little maintenance but otherwise the room was good. The rooms in the back are very noisy from the highway, even on the top floor.
