First time staying there and definitely won’t be the last! First off, the rooms are extremely clean and neat, comfortable beds with white sheets, clean bathroom white towels, room smells so clean and fresh. Felt like I was right at home!! Staff and management were friendly and I loved that there’s someone in the office 24/7. Also.. free breakfast! Who doesn’t love that? Thank you America’s Best in Waco, I will stay there again and again.
