This place is horrible. I cannot count the number of insects that I have found in my room. The cleaning schedule is very spotty and inconsistent. I have had my room cleaned sometimes 2 days in a row and sometime not for an entire week. This biggest problem I have with this place is that the rooms have little to no temperature control. My room is uncomfortably cold and I was told that the heat can't be turned on until 5 consecutive cold days have passed. The only reason I'm staying here is because of how close it is to my school. Don't stay here unless you have to.
DO NOT STAY HERE. The first room they put me in had flies coming out of the sink and my bed sheets were dirty, I immediately went to get a new room just to be met with more dirty sheets and bed bugs. Bed bugs being a common issue at this hotel. Also, if you’re military (E6 and below) they make you share a bathroom (be prepared to deal with someone else’s pubes in your shower). If you’re able to I highly recommend staying off base, there are way nicer hotels for cheaper. (You can see a picture I took of the bug traps they put under the mattress, and the nasty sheets)
Besides that the staff is nice, never had any issues with them, the manager also gave me a letter of personal choice so I could move to a hotel off base.
Ugh… they took the old dorms and turned them into “hotel rooms” so you’ll be sharing a bathroom with the room next door which can get really annoying. The walls are super thin and there was mold on the main vent. It gets very hot with the heating on. If I had to go back to Goodfellow I would try everything to stay off base.
I’m not sure why this place only gets 3 stars. We originally were set to stay in building 711 but ended up needing a suite. Both rooms were clean and everything is serviceable. The staff was very friendly and helpful when we had to switch rooms. The plus sides are the sides are the price ( very affordable), both rooms had a small, stocked kitchen , cleanliness, and the bed and furniture was comfortable. The only cons were the shower water temperature was a little touchy, a minor inconvenience in my opinion and you can’t control the thermostat. Luckily we could open the windows and crack the door so even though the room was a little warm, we were able to get comfortable. If you want an affordable and clean place to stay I highly recommend. It’s not the lap of luxury but completely doable.
The rooms are pretty spacious and decently well-kept if you get one without a shared bathroom and the employees are nice.
I'd like to highlight that, as an aspiring entomologist, I found I had plenty of company in my room that made me feel a lot more at home. First, there was a small family of extremely cute and cuddly Armadillidium vulgare, and I think they were the highlight of my stay. Way cooler than he three-legged cat living in the courtyard. There were also, of course, a mix of Acheta domesticus, Pachypsylla celtidismamma, and even one Euborellia annulipes which thankfully kept a respectable distance. I am sad that I didn't get to see one of the famous Texas Toe-Biters; perhaps they can't survive the chemicals in the water to make it this far west.
My room has been skipped so many times, four in the last week. They’ll take your money and give you the absolute bare minimum service. The manger here won’t give you a CNA but will put you in a room you get to share with some bugs. I am counting down my days to leave.
I was in the student housing for priors. The family or traditional hotel will likely have a different experience.
My room was on the bottom floor. Cockroaches get in the room often. One surprised me in the shower, one was in my sink in my room. Three times bugs crawled across my face while sleeping. Massive spiders two times on my wall. No idea why they decided to have rooms that open to the outside. So stupid.
Staff cleaned the rooms everyday and did a good job. You will share a bathroom with someone else. Annoyingly, they can lock you out of the bathroom and leave, meaning you need to go to the front desk to unlock the door. My suite mate used to have loud intercourse and you could hear everything. Thin walls.
It's liveable. Fridge was larger than expected and had a freezer and microwave. Internet wasn't completely awful. Try to get off base if you can. Upper floors probably don't have as many bug issues.
Overall, it's better than the barracks. Their AC broke down in one of the hottest summers on record and that limited the space available. I was told I got the last room available. Don't wait to make your reservation. Wi-Fi is reliable. TVs meet standards from 2005. There are structural issues that the management pointed out to me during our conversation. This place needs either a remodel or a rebuild. It should be put in the budget. The coffee machine in the lobby broke several times upon my stay, too.
Nerds and fire dog students are going to keep visiting this establishment. It should be updated.
