Location was near Texas State University. It was a last-minute stay; there was availability and the price was excellent. The young lady that assisted us was very friendly and professional. The room was nice and clean. My only complaint, the vent in the bathroom was missing, so it felt a little creepy. Other than that, it was a pleasant stay.

Good for quick overnight stay

Nothing fancy, but was great for an overnight stay. Was attending a graduation and it was a close to the campus and very convenient. The morning and evening front desk staff were very nice and friendly. The beds were firm and comfortable. The only thing that made it a less pleasant experience was the train in the distance that came through several times during the night. The interstate traffic noise did not bother us at all. Decent breakfast included.

This property was no where near anything promised. Very small with debilitated exterior. So close to freeway was loud. No elevator. The bathroom had hair in the tub and in the floor, a disgusting stained shower curtain, and the bottom of tub had some sort of extremely worn mat in it. Beds were rick hard. I will never stay at a best western again nor prepay using Expedia.
