One of the beds was broken down on one side, there were crickets EVERYWHERE!!!! We were here for the State 4-H Horse Show, and stayed 6 days. It was cheap and now we know why. The free breakfast was not very good. Below average. The employees were nice. It won't be our first choice next year. They need to get... more

Evidently we chose the WRONG Whitten Inn in Abilene during a recent overnight visit. (April 2007) We chose the one on old Hiway 80, and were disappointed by the room. Not only did it smell bad, it was only marginally clean. On the plus side, the staff was very courteous and friendly. The (complimentary) continental breakfast was plentiful and nicely... more

I usually stay at some larger chains, but I stumbled across The Whitten by accident and being extremely tired of driving and needing to get some sleep I decided to stop in and give it a try. Eventhough it was late (12:30am) I was greeted by the friendliest lady who was more than happy to have my business. Some of... more

After reading other reviews for this motel, I'm wondering if I stayed at the same place some of the other reviewers did! Our experience was very pleasant. The two young people at the front desk couldn't have been more courteous and helpful. Yes, they did ask the reason for our visit to Abilene, but they certainly didn't appear "nosy" to... more

We stayed at the Whitten Inn during the Western Heritage Classic this year. Not only was it quiet, clean and comfortable, but the staff was very friendly! We have already booked our rooms for next year! The free breakfast was delicious and not your run-of-the-mill juice and muffins - we're talking biscuits, eggs, bacon, grits, pancakes.....! The waitstaff was very... more

Loved it!

When we had a fire at our house in Abilene the Whitten Inn was more than accomodating to us. They did everything they could to make our stay the best. They just kept telling us if there was anything they could do, just let them know! It is so nice to be able to walk into a hotel these days... more

When I checked in, the desk person did not look up from the desk and told me my room number out loud (in a crowded lobby) - this made me feel uncomfortable as I was staying by myself. Early the next morning, the housekeeper POUNDED loudly several times on the door even though I had the Do Not Disturb sign... more

My company is promised transportation services upon request. I asked for a trip to the grocery store and was GRILLED by a guy about my intentions! I wanted to go to the store to get dinner! Is that outside the realm of expectations of guaranteed transportation? I don't think so. I later found out that the man who grilled me... more

Larry Whitten, Director of Sales

In response to Saia complaint, I have been in the process of investigating this complaint with Saia. As far as they are concerned, Whitten Inn Expo is doing a fantastic service with their company. They have not received a single complaint. I am the contact for situations such as this. I have not received a complaint with their officials. If...
