This was one of the larger hotels in Abilene - but it was an old property. A new, replacement hotel is opening very soon. It felt like thisnhotel was being ignored and all resources put into the opening of the new HIE across the street. Also, we had a bad check in experience. As i was on crutches, i asked if we could have a first floor room. Shebsaid none were available and then proceeded to give us a second floor room farthest away from the elevator. Also, we had prepaid for our room on Expedia, yet this check in girl charged my credit card again for the room. We checked in arpund 6pm, so surprised we couldnt have been placed in a room closer to elevator. I would like to compliment the front desk manager, Heather, as she was very helpful in getting the room charge removed from my credit card and she apologized for the problem.

The side entrance to the building supposedly requires the use of the room key to enter but the door doesn’t even lock. That makes me feel much less safe…about as safe as a drive-up motel without the barrier of a lobby. The pool room had the back door propped open and anybody could sneak in from outside. The coffee maker in the room was dusty and filthy inside; it was very unsanitary. There was no hand soap for the bathroom sink. The front desk attendant searched and found two small bars though she seemed annoyed with the request. She also didn’t seem to want to reprogram our card key that didn’t work. Even our 5 y.o. commented “She wasn’t very friendly.” She didn’t look up to greet people when they entered. Anybody off the street could be in this hotel. At least it is quiet; I think it may be because people know not to stay here. This room was extremely overpriced. For this rate we expected much more. Haven’t had breakfast yet so I can’t comment on that.

Unusual only had decaf.coffee in the room and staff only supplied new towels between nights didn’t straighten the room. Not a big deal but the price is a premium for this area so expected a little more

First the good, breakfast was good for a hotel. Many different choices from bacon and eggs, biscuits and gravy, pancakes, pasteries, fruit and drinks. Staff was very welcoming and friendly. The room was very large, as clean as it could be for how old the property is and the shower had great water pressure Now the bad. This is an old hotel, they are building a new one across the street. Pets are allowed so the smell of dogs is in the hotel. Very thin walls. You hear everyone outside in the hallway. The bed was super stiff making it almost impossible to sleep. No exhaust fan in the bathroom. There used to be one but it was removed making it possible to see into the bathroom next door. Some signs of black mold on the ceiling in the bathroom and a ton of rust around the door frame of the bathroom. Non working tv which isn't that big of a deal. Way overpriced for the area and was expecting so much more but i was very disappointed in the upkeep of the property. I would not stay here again. Drive a few more miles down the road.
