I stayed twice within a month for work and found the location to be ideal for those with or without a car during your stay.
My room was clean with a full sized refrigerator, dishwasher, stove top and complete with necessary dishes. While I went out to eat when I was there if I stayed longer that option to cook my own meals would have been welcomed. It is a few blocks from the railroad but as I slept with my white noise app I didn't really notice it. If you are a "Fixer Upper" fan the Magnolia Silos/stores are only a few blocks away as are several restaurants and bars. I enjoyed the 900 Degree Pizza place, Ninfas, Crickets and Diamondback that were only 3 or 4 blocks from the hotel.
Monday - Wednesday they offer apps, burgers, beer and wine from 5-8 pm which allowed me to have a few beverages without going out to a bar by myself which was appreciated.
The breakfast offered a wide assortment of fresh fruits, proteins and carbs. Each day you could select from a waffle, eggs, two sides of meat, either oatmeal or grits, various yogurts, fresh fruit, including many options of toppings for the oatmeal. I liked the flavored coffee syrups as a sugar alternative for my coffee.
I did not use the pool or onsite workout room but both appeared neat and not busy or crowded.
I walked across the street to the Brazos Riverwalk and with all the new additions to the area I put on several miles just walking around Waco to see the sights.
You can purchase additional snacks or beverages from the front desk too.
The staff was extremely polite.
