Facility was ok. Towels clean but worn. Kitchen had no plates, bowls, utensils, pots, pans, - nothing. Staff informed me I would have to buy them all myself. If I rent a room with kitchenette, I expect to be able to cook and eat with whatever is in the room. Probably will not stay there in the future.

Horrible experience, I had booked this last week I however when I got to the hotel to check in the front lady couldn’t find my booking and told me “we’ve been having system problems I can’t check you guys in” (I had already paid for this online too) front lady did not care to help either just basically told us we couldn’t stay the night since it wasn’t showing up due to their system not working, also as soon as we walk in there is just a loud beeping noise making it hard to even hear the staff lady, called the front the next couple days to see if I could get a refund since I wasn’t even able to stay here and they didn’t pick up a single time

The rooms are outdated and just not very clean like everything is broken and the fridge had rust and dings all over it, the sheets and the halls smelled terrible overall I’d only recommend if you’re sleeping there for one night. The floor in the restroom was sinking in there was a spot where the floor was squishy and I don’t think that’s good ..

I expected that a suite would at least have utensils but there were none in the room and no plastic utensils or napkins at the front desk either, which made eating meals in the room problematic when the restaurants did not include utensils.

Unfortunately, our stay was very disappointing. We found cockroaches in our room, and another member of our group also found cockroaches in her room. This was not an isolated incident, which raises serious concerns about the hotel's cleanliness and pest control. Guests should not have to deal with these conditions. Management needs to address this issue immediately. I would not recommend this hotel unless these problems are properly resolved.

I’ve stayed at a WoodSpring Suite before and it was a great experience so I thought this would be the same. Instead it was very very unpleasant. I was booked into a room and was given card keys and then my room was double booked. When I was in the shower someone tried to get into the room twice. I was terrified. I called the front desk about and the woman was very dismissive of the situation at first. She called back said that my room was supposed to be vacant and someone accidentally booked me in there. They had to transfer me and the other guests room. Then there was a roach infestation issue in the room I had. We couldn’t sleep comfortably at all and had a pretty sleepless night for the two night we stayed. The rooms were very trashy as well. The bathroom door wouldn’t close, the lock at the top of the room door on the inside was out of the hinge, paint on the walls and bed frame were scuffed up and chipped. It was definitely one of the worst hotels I have ever been in.

Horrible customer service, not organized, cancelled our last nights stay, and wanted us to pay for another night. It smells bad and they don’t clean their rooms during the stay.
- 4/5
Otherwise, property was clean & quiet. Bed was comfortable, but did only come with a thin comforter & 2 very small pillows. Personally, I would prefer thicker bedding & pillows, & the option to have more than 2, but it worked for 2 nights. WiFi worked well.

Definitely flagged for "never again"

The Location The room was clean, but the pillow smelled unpleasant. There was only shampoo provided, with no conditioner or body wash. The refrigerator made disturbing noises throughout the night, making it difficult to sleep comfortably. However, the lady at the front desk was very nice and friendly.

Room was clean. The AC was running well. The shower had good pressure. The refrigerator was good size. The phone was missing because it was out of order. They replaced it after I mentioned to them. The suite did not have any utensils, paper towels, cleaning detergent, no plates and no glasses. The bathroom did not have wash clothes or hand towels. and no clock.

Front desk lady was nice. That’s it. The property is trashed including broken car windows (multiple) and a huge pit in the parking lot with mattresses/trash and who knows what else. The lobby, hallways, and every other part except the room smelled horrendous. Never going back.
- 4/5
Hôtel propre, bien entretenu. Parking gratuit inclus. Quartier calme et sécuritaire. Pas de petit déjeuner proposé. Plusieurs options de restauration aux alentours. Chambre propre et spacieuse, literie confortable, wifi fonctionnel. Il serait agréable d’avoir une chaise dans la chambre pour travailler sur le bureau (chambre 304), mais aussi du savon dans la salle de bain ne serait que pour se laver les mains… Bon rapport qualité/prix.

The hotel had a bad smell in the hallways and elevators. The carpets had many stains.
- 2/5
Me and my girlfriend had to change rooms 3 times in an 8-day stay... First room (only stayed one day) was insanely loud, was right next to the highway and they were in construction all week. Next room was better (we stayed about 5 days or so), but when we got back to the room one night we saw a huge cockroach walking on the wall and we found 2 more dead next to the fridge. The last 3 days we stayed at a different room but the water pressure was awfully low. This hotel was the cheapest around the area for a reason
- 1/5
It smelled moldy in the hallways and it was way worse in the elevator. The air conditioner didn’t work well, shower water pressure was too low, and can see mold on walls.

Nothing. I didn't like the $100 deposit required. After I paid for my stay.and had card on file for security. The other thing was I had booked my stay for July 11th not August 11th called management and could not change my reservation date.

The front desk clerk was very rude , disrespectful, unprofessional, she called the police on me saying that I was disorderly, aggressive, out of line . And I was none of that and All because I questioned the policy of the 100$ deposite . Which I was told I could get my money back if expidia approved the return and nothing has been done for me to get my 80$ back for a room I did not stay in
- 5/5
The safety and security to get in and out. And the gym looked nice, I wish I had stayed long enough to use it. The only thing I didn’t like was I needed a chair to sit in, I didn’t like eating my food on the bed. And this place needs a pool. Other than that I have no complaints.

Clean room fairly up to contemporary standards in terms of clean well modled room and very clean bathroom. They charge a $100 non-smoking deposit. I checked out of room 112 on a Saturday morning August 1, 2026. I checked my credit card on Monday, August 3, 2026. My $100 deposit was not yet refunded. I called the front desk and spoke with Laurie. She did some research and finally determined that I may have to wait up to 10 days and then check my credit card again to see if the refund has been processed. I'm not happy about that system. I'm luck I checked. If the hotel management were corrupt, they could bet that if former guests didn't check within 10 days they probably wouldn't. And then it would be easy to forget to refund the $100 and less likely to have the customer remember to refund the $100. I have stayed there at least twice before. Lauria said that she could confim that one of those deposits was refunded but not the other one. I don't remember which credit card(s) I used then and both I and the hotel management know that if you read between the lines. Also, my Booking.com receipt says I'd be charged $141.61 for my stay. But my creditcard shows a charge of $144.94 to the additional benefit of who-knows.

We needed a cheap place for just one night close to a certain area, and we got what we paid for. The beds were both quite uncomfortable. We were not told that there would be a $100 charge added to our room or that it would take about a week before it was refunded. The hotel only had one luggage cart. The chair for the desk was in very poor condition. We didn’t need to use it, but it was surprising to see a chair that damaged in a hotel room. There were children running up and down the hallway, either on our floor or the one above us, until about 10pm. It was pretty loud, but then again, the room had a low price point.

Stayed for three days only had one towel for a family of four the whole three days never received anymore , liked that the hotel was per friend but hallways and lobby reeked of wet dog smell , tv remove didn’t work never received another one back after turning it in and ac was broken in our room

When I got off the elevator he was asleep right in front of the elevator, when I was walking around the wood floor got stuck to my foot and the whole floor LITERALLY lifted off… I’m a guy and it takes a lot to gross me out and I never write reviews but man… this pissed me off

The smell of hallways, not having the room i requested, didnt have any towels in room only 2 thin pillows

The only negative thing I'll mention was there was slight difficulty finding the property. It's located on a one way road, and there wasn't any obvious signage; and if you're not paying attention you can easily miss the entrance. Which at that point, you'd have to do another loop just to get back on that one way road again. Beyond that, the stay was actually really good and was a very comfortable and roomy stay. Staff was friendly, and the room was actually really clean. Location-wise, even though it was near an interstate, there wasn't too much noise and it was a quiet stay. Didn't get to use the kitchen or other amenities (so can't speak on that) but it looked nice and in proper conditions. No breakfast offered here, but free parking and Wi-Fi helps to make up for that, definitely recommend.

I came here from Dallas to celebrate my husband‘s birthday and we stayed at this place. That’s the worst experience ever , starting with a lot of homeless people around, the room , hallway and elevator smelled really bad, and not to mention that a really loud noise coming out of nowhere ( ceiling ) didn’t let us sleep well and a woman outside was screaming asking for help????? Do not come over here people. .

Priscilla was awesome! She was very respectful, helpful, and kind. The manager was also very helpful as well. Having a kitchen and refrigerator was very useful.

No receipt was given to me when I had to check out early. We got there and there was a sign smoking 25ft from the door and someone was smoking next to the door and well as in there room on the third floor. Was kept up from running foot steps from the floor above me. Shower had a used soap and toothpick on top.
- 1/5
Every time I tried to open my room door, it would take 3–4 attempts just to get inside. On top of that, there was constant knocking noises 24/7. At first I thought it was construction outside, but the noise was actually coming from somewhere around the bathroom area and continued all through the night — even at 1–2 AM. It was extremely annoying and made it hard to rest. The only male staff member working there was also very rude and inconsiderate. I was recovering from surgery and had a catheter in, barely able to move around. The first night there wasn’t even any toilet tissue provided. Later when I needed clean towels, he made me go all the way upstairs to bring down the used towels. After I struggled to do that, he refused to take them because he thought there was blood on them, when it was actually pink surgical soak from my recovery. I even explained that one towel may have had blood on it, but he still made me go get it just to refuse it anyway. I ended up throwing it away myself. Overall, the stay was stressful, uncomfortable, and completely lacking compassion or professionalism.

We stayed a week, no issues with the room. Due to guest being primarily used by workers and the rain, it was hard to keep it clean. No issues with parking. It is by IH35 construction, be aware they start working at 5:00am and it's impossible not to hear the noise. We were awake by 5am so construction noise was not an issue. Hotel does have a certain smell but again, we went when it was raining and it's hard to keep carpet clean. Price was affordable and that what was we were looking for. Other guest seem to be passing by, for some people, they might look homeless but they didn't cause any disturbances while we were there.

Such a disappointment. The room had an unpleasant odor with water present on the floor. I notified the desk clerk and invited her to investigate the matter. She declined to come to the room, but she indicated that she was aware of the source of the wet floor, therefore, I can't understand why she allowed the room to be available. She reassigned me to another room only to find that it had no soap. Upon my return to her desk to request soap she appeared annoyed and asked me if the room clean? She provided the soap. I requested a blanket which she stated that the blankets were currently being cleaned. I had to make several trips to the desk before I was finally provided a blanket. Never again for me...
- 1/5
Terrible...3 people in our room - only 2 towels. Called front desk at 4 pm for more towels and a blanket - desk said "they are in laundry and not available. Check back later." Asked 6:30 at front desk at 6:30 - "laundry is not done please check back later." Went to eat and see friends. Came back at 9 and nobody is at front desk. Walked through halls to staff laundry room and knocked - "lady in there says she is "doing the laundry and there are none available." Elevator and halls reeked of weed. TV remote didn't work. Very sketchy "clientele" hanging out around front door.

The staff was rude during check-in and also they refused to refund my deposit. Hotel says I never stayed there. Took my money and their gym stuff was in bad shape. The room had a bad smell. Also, this is a stay motel for long term. I do not recommend if staying here just for one night.

The staff were very inattentive. They did not go over and above. There are no restaurants within walking distance. They had an automatic air freshener in the hallway that tried to mask the smells of people cooking in their rooms that made the combined scent worse.

DO NOT STAY HERE!! i checked in on a tuesday and there was a piece of pasta in the hall by the elevator and when i left on Saturday morning it was still there the elevator floor is nasty and the whole place smelled. In the room next to us there was a woman screaming for help the she was getting beaten. At least 2 of the nights the police were there arresting someone.

I would rate my experience a “0” if I could! I booked my stay OVER two months ago. About halfway through my journey, (i drove 5 1/2 hours) I saw I had been charged for my room. When I arrived in the evening, and the receptionist “couldn’t find my reservation”. I showed her my confirmation email, and she still couldn’t pull me up. After about 5 minutes, she told me my room was cancelled- because they CALLED to confirm I was still coming because the hotel was completely sold out. (I NEVER received a phone call or a voicemail.) but I reserved my room two months in advance? And yet my card was charged? I moved to the side and I waited for a manager - who I was told was "showering on the property". (Is this why I didn't have a room?) A woman checked in while i waited who DID confirm; she had already prepaid as well and she was being charged extra and had requested a room for her physically handicapped daughter (she was on the side in a wheelchair) and was told they had no rooms available for her, so the poor lady had to take what she could. The property smelled stale/bleachy and looked extremely outdated/dirty. Extremely unprofessional, I would NEVER waste my time here again and would highly NOT recommend. Thankfully, Expedia booked me a better room, in a better location and at the same rate.

I showed up on the morning of 7 March 2026 and was in desperate need for a place to let my kids sleep for a few hours. I can’t recall the front desk woman’s name but I’d really like to shout her out. She was absolutely amazing and helped me get my daughter and son in a comfortable bed when I needed it. Thank you so much!!
- 1/5
The only good thing about this place is the receptionist at the front desk. She was nice and cannot control the quality of the hotel. It stunk, the door had damage from being broken into, dead bugs on the bed… I don’t think the bedding was changed, there was dirt and hair. The appliances have dirt and rust everywhere. She tried getting us a different room but it only appeared better when you walked in. Still was not a place to sleep/stay. We left immediately, I was ready to sleep in my vehicle.

The GM is on the property daily and is no help whatsoever. Her staff is a reflection of her and she does a horrible job at customer service . When you are at the front desk and your customer is standing right in front of you and you continue on your phone with no acknowledgment, that is poor customer service behavior. I also lost a personal item that I am certain was in my room . This is not a good place to stay .

My stay was pretty terrible. I came out to Austin for a mental health break for a couple days as well as work on some scopes for my job. The day I checked in, I was told the WiFi was down but a technician was working on fixing it on site. They then tell me the elevator doesn't work and they put me on the third floor in a room with no heat. It was less than 40 degrees outside and the room was dead cold. I went to the front desk and asked for another room. I was placed in another room also with no heat, only the AC worked. I stayed anyway, next day hoping the WiFi would be working so I could get some work done , it was never fixed while I stay there for 2 nights. That weekend felt like a waste of time and money. I also attempted to reach out to corporate thru the Woodspring website but it does not work. Wish I could get my money and time back.
