If you're only going to sleep here and you don't mind the odd smell and hard bed it's okay. Our room was tiny. The shampoo bottle was half empty. Not sure what chain this used to be but it definitely isn't up to Best Western standards.

I and a colleague stayed here one night while we attended a conference nearby. It was okay. The room was clean and cold (in Texas in August that's important!). The towels and bedding aren't real fancy but they were clean and inviting after a long day of sitting in a conference. We paid $80.00 for the night. The front desk staff was okay. 'Had to ring the bell to find 'em. The breakfast was extended continental breakfast - waffles, breakfast rolls, cereal, bagels, milk, coffee, etc.

The hotel is a little shabby in places but not dirty or overly worn. The curtain in our room was sagging, the night light in the bathroom was burned out.

For what we paid we were happy. You don't get the Ritz-Carlton for $80.00 a night. You get a functional place to sleep until you can get back to your conference the next day and then head home.

Don't stay here if you can afford to spend more! The renovation to this motel was only bedding and carpet in the rooms. The sofa and chairs in our room smelled like dirty feet. The common areas, halls, elevator, etc. smelled and had old walls and carpet. The bathroom in the lobby smelled like urine. The breakfast buffet was the worst I have experienced. No food to choose from, coffee undrinkable, garbage overflowing, no napkins. Looks like they went to the local convenience store for a few food items. Also, the exercise room is no bigger than a large closet and has no a/c, the vent was covered over with a steel plate! It was at least 85 degrees in there as it is summer in Texas. The ice and vending room on the 3rd floor is closed down and being used by the staff as a storage closet for cleaning.

Lesson is: if you they are going to renovate, serve breakfast, provide an exercise room, etc. DO IT RIGHT or don't provide these things at all.

We stayed here after looking for area hotels close to the Marriott Solana. The property used to be a Microtel Inn and Suites, but now it's been recently renovated and is now Best Western. If I hadn't known about its past history, I would've thought this hotel was recently built. Rooms were clean and spacious, and the property was well-maintained.

My only complaint about the property was that the back door wasn't working properly. My key card to unlock the door wasn't needed as the door was always unlocked. For security reasons, I would've much preferred that management look into this issue .
