Summary: This hotel was a nicely priced option for our family's visit to Texas State for new student orientation. There were other options up and down I-35, but this one was more reasonably priced. The staff and accommodations were excellent and our room was clean and all of the rooms have been well designed with families in mind (little things like a full mirror and outlet/counter top outside the bathroom, so multiple people can get ready at once in the morning). Our only complaints are that the shower heads were sub-par, which resulted in an unsatisfying shower. Also geographically, the hotel is very near 2 different railway tracks, so it's possible that your family will hear train horns pretty late at night (I think the last one we heard was after midnight). Other than that, this was a great hotel and a convenient choice that is near Texas State.
