Wonderful

Very nice accommodations. Comfy bed. Directly across street from Waco Suspension Bridge. Conveniently located to downtown and Baylor University. Check in was fast and easy. Front desk personnel friendly. Large beautiful bathroom and walk in shower. Will stay again.
We like the newness of the property. We like the ability to walk to McClane Stadium. The walkable paths and area around the hotel is beautiful due to its nearness to the Brazos and the bridges. It is not ideal however if you want to be in and walk within the downtown Waco neighborhood. It’s an easy drive but I’d recommend a hotel in downtown if you want to be in that neighborhood. The lobby, bar and restaurant are spacious and beautiful.
Overall it’s a comfortable and very nice stay.
Our fear is that over time when the newness wears off, lack of staffing will degrade the property. Although the present staff is friendly and willing to help but there’s just not eneough staff. In addition housekeeping fell short on service. They bed was actually messily made, we almost thought they didn’t come and then realized neither my husband or I made any attempt to make our bed so they had to have come in. We also realized that towels were replenished so that also confirmed they were in the room. However, they didn’t replace us with enough towels or wash clothes so that was irritating as well. In addition, they may or may not have even swiffered the floors. Which swiffering is very bare minimum to begin with.
Another observation is that the front desk staff sit behind the front desk. I have never observed this until this hotel so we thought it strange.
Wonderful spacious room with modern furnishings. Easy walk from Baylor but some sidewalks missing.
However, in the room noisy minibar and AC is noisy and hard to control.
Restaurant staff inexperienced and unfriendly: slow to provide service (salt and paper?), and spills coffee on my table and does not even apologize or come to wipe it.
Be aware that this hotel charges additional "property fees" above and beyond hotel incidentals and the hotels.com rate. Wasn't made aware of this until after my stay and I see the charge on my card. It's a nice hotel, very clean and the staff are friendly. But, extra charges were a negative for me. Let me know what I'm paying for. Don't surprise me! Not good.
Front desk was not approachable , no eye contact when checking out. We had opportunity to dine but staff seems not trained not even serving wine bottle , most staff was stretching g many times over bar.
In room bed was not steady and was squeaky on minimun movement , no maintenance after 6pm, no laundry service .
