The only thing that prevented me from giving a 5 star review was the toilet rocked when you sat down. Everything was good. I happen to know Lubbock really well and the area of the hotel worried me a little. However, had no safety issues arise on this trip.

Loved our one night stay here! It was very clean and that says alot as I'm particular and normally clean every hotel I go to but I didnt feel the need to here. Very conveniently located next to Texas Tech. The breakfast was okay- it could definitely be better and no where near as good as Embassy Suites. Will definitely visit again if my son decides on going to school there.
