Glad I gave it a second chance.
I stayed at this hotel about two years ago and swore I would never return, but, then, I read that the hotel was under new management/ownership and that they had been remodeling. I am glad that I decided to give it another try, The interior and exterior has been totally remodeled, two years ago I truly believed this place was on its last legs then viola. The rooms have been remodeled to the last detail, fresh paint, tubs refurbished, new linens, new curtains, chairs upholstered, new carpet, I had to ask about the changes and met the new owner who explained to me that he had actually been spending a lot more than he was making to refurbish the hotel. The restaurant was great, the front desk staff is very knowledgeable and helpful and the housekeeping staff does great work, The only thing needed was landscaping the shrubs seem to have grown out of hand, but I am sure that is on the list. They have installed security cameras throughout the premises and have a manager on site 24-7. Couldn't believe the changes, getting a room larger than most of the new hotels, at 50 - 60% of the price. The pool is wonderful as well. My new home away from home when I visit Abilene.
