I'm used to staying at relatively new Holiday Inn Express and Hampton properties, so this hotel seemed dated to me. It's probably the best available in Stephenville right now, but a new Hampton and La Quinta appear to be opening soon.
This hotel has attempted to shape up in preparation -- my room had new carpet, and the air conditioner looked new. The bed was reasonably comfortable, but nothing compared to Hampton's new beds. The bathroom was small and moldy. Rooms are exterior entry, and there is no elevator.
The biggest disappointment was the housekeeping. On my first night there, my sheets had hair on them. So did the towels. The housekeeper didn't even replace a completely used toilet paper roll.
On the plus side, my courtyard-side room was quiet, the wireless internet service was great, and there are some good restaurants nearby (Chili's & Cotton Patch Cafe).
