Jose

Disliked: Staff & service

know I remember why I dont stay in motels

something was going on in Lubbock this week and there was no rooms. I had to reserve here..and when arrived she could not find me and said they now had no rooms. after 20 min they finally found reservation. The hotel was clean I guess for the type of hotel it was. but can use touch ups. I cancelled my reservation after one day and went to where I normally stay .. they refunded my money . but I was charged 149.00 dollars for one night due to the price hikes from that week.. and the rate stated 49.99. I checked into the Marriott for the rest of my stay at 106 per night.

The Owner thought I worked for HER!

Well First off we reserved a room for 4 and we were only given 1 wash rag. I asked for 3 more and was told I needed to leave a deposit for them. UMM NO! The fire alarm went off in the middle of the night I called for batteries and was told they had none. We disconnected it. We reminded them the next morning we needed batteries to be changed we returned to the room 10 hours later and still no batteries. I called and she asked me if I could get them. UMMM NO. The breakfast was toast or a waffle. We were told it had eggs, bacon, waffles, fruit and yogurt. UMMM NO! NEVER EVER WILL I STAY HERE AGAIN

Old and run down.

I would not recommend this hotel. The room was very old and reeked of cigarettes. The blow dryer didn't work, there was half a roll of toilet paper, the towels were torn and stained, the "full" breakfast was toast and a banana, the towel bars were broken, many of the electrical outlets didn't work, etc. Pay a little more and stay elsewhere!

Want stay again.

Not bad for what we paid. We had everything we needed but an iron which was provided when we asked. The breakfast left a lot to be desired Towels are not readily available. Had to ask for more pillows. If you just want to sleep and shower go for it. Bed was comfortable.

Disliked: Room comfort

Meh.....

Not particularly good but it wasn't expensive either so I wasn't expecting much. However, I was not expecting a lukewarm shower at best when there was plenty of hot water in the sink. Maybe I should have showered in the sink instead. Also, petty though it may be, the wi-fi was particularly slow.

It's a little sketchy, but just because of where it's located. It's old, but it's clean. Basically what you expect for the price.

NOT A PLEASANT EXPERIENCE

THE FRONT LOBBY SMELLED LIKE SMOKE, THE STAFF WOULDN'T GIVE US CLEAN TOWELS UNTIL THEY COUNTED THE DIRTY ONES WE GAVE THEM. THEY ALSO CHARGE A $20 DEPOSIT IF YOU BOOK THE HOTEL THROUGH A THIRD PARTY.

Not a happy camper!

No way will I ever stay here again! Even though the gm and his wife were super nice, finding drug paraphernalia between the mattress and box springs is not my idea of fun or cleanliness. The wife of the gm came to the room and removed it immediately but nothing else was done. If there had been another hotel that was not at capacity, I would have left. Needless to say, I was not a happy camper!
