Rooms are large and clean. Service is very bare bones. Housekeeping did not show up to clean during my stay, despite several requests. It was hard to get water and the hydration station on my floor was broken. One of 2 elevators was broken, making for long waits. Hotel did not communicate well and staff wasn’t very professional or friendly. I would not stay here again.

The property is beautiful. The location is incredible, right off the Brazos. Very spacious rooms with a separate room for the commode vs. shower. The front desk staff was polite when interacting with them, but not really present at the desk a lot of the time and certainly not engaging guests unless engaged by the guests. But still a great overall experience.

Beautifully designed gem in Waco

I typically don't write reviews but was highly impressed with our stay. The rooms were clean and spacious, the shower was hot and great pressure, the bed was comfy & slep great. The pool area was beautiful with 2 pools, hot tub, ping pong table & chess mat. The gym was nice & had everything you could need for a good workout. The hotel in general was modern and beautifully decorated. The location was good. We strolled across the bridge to walk to dinner. Free coffee in the morning in the lobby. We ate brunch in the restaurant and had a wonderful omelet. Overall for a quick trip for my sons baseball game it was a great experience and will definitely stay there again!
