We have stayed here several times as our daughter attends Texas State University. This is our go to hotel for the area. The hotel is quiet and clean and the staff is always friendly and personable! On our last visit there were no bath towels, however, this was easily resolved by a visit to the front desk. Will definitely continue to stay here when visiting our daughter.
