I have to travel to Abilene on an annual basis. This was my first time at this hotel. I was pleasantly surprised, especially in comparison with some of the other hotels I've stayed at before in the area. The only area of improvement would be the fitness center. The cardio equipment needs updating. The elliptical was terrifying, it was wobbly and made loud noises when climbing on. For the record I'm a pretty small person so that wasn't the issue. It's just very old and needs some tlc. Unfortunately I think some of their free weights have been stolen so it's not a complete set and also, the exercise bike which I ended up using due to the elliptical issue, also needs some tlc. The adjustment lever isn't working properly, and the back part flops backward when you mount it so basically I guess you could say you get a built-in AB workout, albeit unintentional lol! I do hope these issues are addressed soon but in spite of them, this will be my go to place when I return next year, thanks for having me and also for the lemon water which is just a lovely addition to any lobby!
