Convenient and safe one night stay. I was worried about checking in late based on all hotel reviews in the area not keeping reservations but I called ahead saying we’ll be late twice and it worked out fine.

The room was on the top floor. Hence, the bathroom vent opened and closed with the wind--and was loud. Hence, I turned on the bathroom vent and closed the bathroom door to drown the sound.

Excellent stay. If you’re coming to visit TT this location was super convenient. About 14 min from airport, about 6 minutes from campus. Ample parking. Breakfast in morning was plentiful w a lot of variety; hot and cold, etc., and stocked the entire time. The entire staff was pleasant and helpful from the front desk to cleaning crew. Pool area was cleaned & stocked w towels. Plenty of seating and tables. Room was clean. Water temp and pressures in bathroom perfect. Had plenty of the soap and shampoos etc if you want to leave that behind (Dove brand). It was quiet. There are areas you’ll see if you never been here if little houses that have been left behind as the area upgraded and modernized but don’t let that fool you. I didn’t see any people causing troubles, etc. everything is like 5 minutes from this location: stores, restaurants, TT, gas, etc. highly recommend. Praise for the whole team esp the young lady keeping the breakfast line stocked and clean. There was a young male golf tournament going on when I was there and the place was stocked and cleaned despite the crowd. Would definitely stay here when I visit my student in the future.

The only thing that prevented me from giving a 5 star review was the toilet rocked when you sat down. Everything was good. I happen to know Lubbock really well and the area of the hotel worried me a little. However, had no safety issues arise on this trip.

Loved our one night stay here! It was very clean and that says alot as I'm particular and normally clean every hotel I go to but I didnt feel the need to here. Very conveniently located next to Texas Tech. The breakfast was okay- it could definitely be better and no where near as good as Embassy Suites. Will definitely visit again if my son decides on going to school there.

Great find for a quick overnight headed back home. Great service, clean, quick check in, easy accessibility to and from the room to the parking lot. Overall great pick about half a mile from multiple dining options next to Texas Tech.
