Buyer Beware!
Worst experience of trip. Upon checkin the front desk if anyone with me. Told one additional adult. Front desk asked if my wife? Inappropriate question! TV in rm didn’t work so “upgrade” to a suite. One queen bed n a broken futon couch. Dirty towel hanging in closet. No clothes hangers, no wash cloths, no Kleenex, one bedside lamp that quit working, hallways n lobby area were filthy with mud clumps. Brkfst was minimal. Had to find our own cups, utensils as nothing stocked. One coffee pot was yesterday’s cold coffee. Glad it was only one night.

Poorly breakfast
For breakfast, the food was very poorly presented and cold. There was a lack of variety in fruit, yogurt, oatmeal or granola.

This hotel is very upkept beginning with the lobby. It smells when you walk in. When i walked in my room, the room smelled so dirty. There were stains all over the furniture and all surfaces. There were stains on the mirror headboard (very gross). There was only one towel in the bathroom. There were roach carcasses on the floor. There was not one surface that was clean. I immediately went to the front desk and got my refund, and booked a room at the Holiday Inn Express across the street. This hotel is absolutely NOT what it's advertised to be.

The staff were wonderful and the overall comfort of the hotel was good. The room is comfortable and newly updated from a decor standpoint. The major issue was the bathroom. The sink was broken, the shower had some mold spots and the overall construction / maintenance is rough. For the price - it’s was worth it. If you are expecting 5 star for 60 bucks, you’re crazy.

Nice stay in Gonzales
Nice stay, friendly people. Breakfast looked terrible but Gonzales has some really good kolache places. Towels and wash cloths need replacing since seemed tattered and soiled.
