Scene
A modern, family-friendly hotel with a cozy and eclectic lobby
The hotel's lobby resembles a cozy but slightly cluttered contemporary living room with fussy accents and nicknacks. A cushy sofa faces a flat-screen TV hanging above a gas fireplace with a black granite hearth, and faux flower arrangements in a motley of colors scattered around the space. Other decorative elements including an old-fashioned popcorn machine and an eclectic collection of artworks are thrown into the mix, and small breakfast room is just beyond a set of French doors. Texas A&M University families and guests attending sporting events and family-focused activities are most commonly seen here, and hotel also attracts some business travelers.
Location
A short drive to Texas A&M University, but no restaurants within walking distance

It’s a three-minute drive to Veterans Park and Athletic Complex, where many soccer and other sports tournaments are hosted.

Rooms
Modern, with coffeemakers and mini-fridges, but microwaves aren't standard
Guest rooms are modern and still fresh from their debut. They're done in warm neutral tones, with furniture that has a dark espresso finish and cream walls for a look that's polished and pulled together. There are tall headboards, sleek and attractive lighting fixtures, and desks with office chairs. Upholstered armchairs and framed prints add a splash of plum and lavender. Standards come in Double Queens and Kings, and larger Business rooms and Suites also are available. Amenities include coffeemakers, mini-fridges, flat-screen TVs, and free Wi-Fi, and Business rooms and Suites add microwaves. Tan marble vanities are placed outside the bathrooms, which come with shower/tub combos, wall-mounted hairdryers, and toiletries.
