La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Waco Downtown - Baylor

10/10 Excellent

"Great choice for those families needing a clean, proximate hotel stay for Baylor U. events."

Hyatt Place Waco

8/10 Good

"My current stay was for two nights while in town. Customer service was wonderful, especially at check in. The notes I had added to my booking were respected and followed. It would have been 5 stars, if housekeeping had not disregarded the "do not disturb" sign two hours prior to my check out time. Then when I was trying to leave the room their cart was blocking the hall to where I could barely get by with my suitcase."
