Great stay
Beautiful hotel! Loved the atmosphere and it felt high end. I loved that the toilet in our bathroom had its own door. Loved the Bluetooth mirror in the bathroom for getting ready and the bed was so comfortable with floor to ceiling blackout curtains! Only recommendation is that the tv be a smart tv with more viewing options.

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.

Buyer Warning ...
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 .
Only one night but enjoyed the stay. Restaurant not open for lunch

Nice larger room with new amenities. Filtered water on each floor, bluetooth speakers in the bathroom, lights under the bed, etc.
I would stay there again - close to river trails and the University. Lots of taxes per night which is annoying and they put a $75 charge per night for any incidentals which they do not tell you about. Ask for the printed receipt upon check out - I did not get mine via email.

We will be staying here anytime we’re in Waco! Great hotel and the steakhouse was awesome. We didn’t even realize it had a steakhouse when we booked.
