Pros:

The location was in close proximity to my family.

Cons:

They do not provide washcloths to their guests, even when requested, and that was not advertised. Also, I booked through booking.com and chose the option to pay on premises. The facility charged my card before we ever stepped foot on the premises.

Great place to stay when visiting Waco area attractions.
Pros:

Everything was really good, breakfast had lots of options, and the coffee was hot. The beds were comfortable, and the room had everything we needed. We grabbed kolaches from Czech Stop on the way in, and the front desk even had plates and napkins for us. Great place to stay when visiting Waco area attractions.
