    I've stayed at this hotel before but never did a review. This is nicer than most Courtyard hotels with a very large lobby, bar and restaurant area. I was immediately greeted and taken care of my James. He is a great representative for the hotel and I hope he is commended for his excellent customer service. I was surprised that the rooms were so expensive but I guess with the military base nearby there are a lot of military families who stay here so the hotel was quite full. Each room does have a fridge, microwave and coffee marker. Beds are comfy, large desk area and a good amount of electrical and usb outlets for all your gadgets.

    The lobby is much nicer than the outside would have you think it will be

    Will start with, front desk staff is polite. No negative thoughts there... moving on... booked online so when we pulled up we were immediately worried. Outside is old and shabby (positive is there is a Panera right next to it), and parking lot is small amd sketchy. The lobby at least looks like it's been renovated so was nice and didn't match the exterior. The elevators are small, old, and dirty with no ventilation. Hallways with poor lighting amd in need of new carpet. Our room was decent. That's it. No MAJOR issues but room amd bathroom definitely need some deep cleaning. Feels very "barely clean." Thankfull I travel with all my own disinfectant products otherwise wouldn't have stayed. Walls are thin so can hear everything going on every where. Our room window faced and inside wall that had mold on it so quite the view lol. Thankfully, we like our room dark in the mornings but the flip side is the room was dark all day. There is a decent 24 hour fitness center and an overpriced hotel bar on the 1st level. Overall, I give the place an eh. I wouldn't voluntarily stay here again. Definitely wouldn't pay more than 130.00/night. And that's pushing it considering they don't even have breakfast included.

    Thank you, Marriott, for saying NO to wall mounted toiletry dispensers in the shower!

    The thing about Courtyard Marriotts is that they are not all the same. I've stayed in some very nice Courtyards, and I've also suffered through a few dumpy Courtyards in my travels. This one in Killeen, Texas is above average in my opinion, and thus I'll bump it up to a 4-star stay. When I first entered my room I noticed that new carpet smell (you can still detect the seaming glue as if it were laid just recently)--updated carpet is always a welcome hotel room feature. The room is spacious and lends itself nicely to getting some computer work done, though the internet was struggling to keep up with my email sending and receiving. The bed was a bit more firm than I prefer, but still it was better than your average hotel mega-chain bed. Finally, I am always grateful to see the Marriott chain's individually wrapped Paul Mitchell toiletries--I am definitely NOT a fan of the wall mounted body-wash/shampoo/conditioner dispensers that many of the large mid-level hotel chains are going to these days. One oddity to report--when the tenant in the room above mine was showering at 4:30 this morning, apparently because of how the drain lines are connected, it sounded like someone was getting clean in MY shower as the water gurgling down the drain was loud and clear. Don't worry, I got up to make sure I was still alone in my guest room. Whew! All in all, on my next trip to Killeen I will certainly give this Courtyard another stay.

    Roach in room.

    I've stayed in this hotel over 30 times and have had very good stays. This stay was disappointing. Found a roach in the room and informed the front desk to have the room vacuumed and cleaned. When I returned in the evening, found the cockroach in the room. Had to get rid of it myself. Disgusting!!! Not what I expected from this hotel. One such incident of lack of service is a huge Miss for Marriott.

    Choosing a hotel to stay at to see my first grand baby born and my son who serve in the Army at Ft. Hood. The Marriott has a respectable name in the industry as far as class and standards. This does not go for the one in Killeen, TX. Reset any expectations you may have for this flag when you choose(I strongly suggest you don't) this one. The accommodations are standard but the people and service do not even reach passable. Immediately upon check in to my room (428) there was a foul musty smell and my son came in behind me (whom I came here to see that is in the Army and accustomed to things we are not) without promt nor question said there's a something wrong w this room. Front desk response was "I can see if I can have housekeeping come up there". Well excuse me for asking to move Mt. Everest on this persons watch! I asked for a air cleaner and to no avail- they loaned the last one out... Then I had to extend by a day and that was the challenge of a lifetime. I have been through 13 countries and have dealt with challenging scenarios but none like dealing with the front desk here... As I was trying to arrange this feat I had to deal with a lady that made me feel like I was watching the tryouts to a part in a Kung Fu movie or episode of Kung Fu Theatre with all her hand gestures as she explained to me it's because of Expedia that she couldn't help me! So I called Expedia and they said the hotel would not do it when they called them. So someone is lying... so I paid for a complete different reservation at $180 instead of $111 a night. Well can I get a better room? NO we are busy and other rooms are not clean yet. Well speaking of cleaning. I woke up this morning with the feeling I wasn't alone and trying to shake the remnants of a dream that there was someone breathing on back my neck and playing footsies with me -turns out I wasn't far from wrong.. there was a king size cockroach laying next to my bed!! Heck I got up and fixed the dang thing coffee so I could keep it busy as I call front desk then the A-Team to come up with a plan of rescue! Front desk response "It'll be okay. We will deal w it WHEN YOU CHECK OUT" This dang thing owes half my rate! Choose this place at your own peril, I have to end here and go next door to the Panera and get my room mate some breakfast....

    In town on business. This establishment is very clean and the mood When you walk in the door is very calm.The rooms are very nice, although I think the water is set to one temp. When turned so the way to hot the water is just warm. Your room is cleaned everyday unless you request green clean. There are multiple choices if you want to eat. If you want to get your food, you should pre-order, or come downstairs early. They offer starbucks products. This is a nice place and the staff is very receptive and understanding. They were always willing to help

    There's a Panera in the parking lot so if the bistro doesn't have it Panera will.

    I had a venue booked for my parent's 50th wedding anniversary... then came COVID…read more The venue cut to 50% capacity, which made it too small. I had to cancel and re-think everything. The venue needed to be large enough to accommodate distancing, catering and food service was sketchy since many places closed, local restrictions were fluid and I didn't live in the city where the event would be held. At one point, I thought we wouldn't be able to celebrate more than having a small dinner. It was discouraging. Then I found Milestone Memories and Events. I had a good feeling about Geri after our first phone call. The second call confirmed my initial impression. I needed someone with experience and good judgment that I could trust for advice. After all, large events take hundreds of decisions and bad choices can create bad experiences for all the guests. To give context, the guest list was 250 people. Given the circumstances, I estimated 100-150 would attend. The final RSVP count came in at 140. This was not a small event and we pulled it off in four months! Here are just a few highlights of my great experience with Milestone Memories: - We developed a budget, and came in under - They got to know us and designed decor and settings to match (my mom loved everything!) - Everything LOOKED AMAZING, tables, center pieces, lighting, photo backdrop, entry tables - All the logistics like how people enter, move, exit, accounting for seating, everything was great - They found the venue, catering, music and negotiated many details so I only made major decisions. I can't tell you how important that is because it can be overwhelming dealing with multiple contracts when the event is personal. - They took care of my parents and were so thoughtful of all their needs on the day of the event - Excellent communication throughout Geri and her staff are genuine, caring people and I'm so thankful we met. Don't misunderstand, she's a skilled project manager and straight forward communicator that will take care of business! What I mean is she thought of details that I could never have thought of. For example, she created a space for my parents to rest before the event and stocked it with a beautiful snack tray. She arranged a "Grand Entrance" which turned out amazing. My parents had a "first dance", and I mean they had never danced in public before, even at their wedding. This was Geri's idea and it made such an impact! This is the longest review I've written and it is still too short. What a great 4 month journey this was with Geri to create such a memorable celebration for my parents! People are still talking about it a week later. I still get emails and texts complimenting how great it was, and we have the best pictures to help us remember. Here's are a few things people are saying: "elegant", "fun", "relaxed", "beautiful", "amazing!"... My mom and dad loved everything! After working with Geri and her team for 4 months, I 100% recommend them to anyone needing a spectacular event!

They have in-window AC and heating units (which came in handy for the cold snap we received this weekend), a bathroom that included showers, toilets, mirror, and sinks for you to get ready in the morning, and bunk beds with mattresses that actually were quite comfortable. Overall, the cabin facilities were good. We also used a couple of the classrooms that were a bit more run-down that I would have preferred and the in-window heating seemed to be a hit or a miss. The tables could use a refresher and the windows could use an update. The restroom facilities that we used while outside of the cabin were less than stellar. It was neat that there was a washer/dryer on site in the restroom, but the bathroom doors were falling off the hinges and the toilets flushed when they felt like it. The bathroom could use a refresher alongside the classrooms. The grounds were lovely. There were several picnic table areas for us to hang out under trees and enjoy the great outdoors. Overall, I really enjoyed my time here and the facilities were quite well done... They could use a refresher in some of the common areas.

I don't know that I would want to be there during the afternoon in the summertime, as the trees are not large shade trees, but during spring time, you cannot beat the bluebonnets.

The Giraffe barn is attached to one side of the house, and their pasture is on the other side. It is the most fabulous "Barndominium" with incredible finishes and clearly thoughtfully designed. That experience alone was mind-blowing.... however we also had the Gold Packages and were able to experience everything the ranch had to offer! Zebras, Capybaras, Kangaroos, Otters, Deer, Homer the Dromedary!!! Everywhere you turned there were more animals and more experiences offered. My children and I were in absolute animal heaven and will be thrilled to return. I will say, our vacation was expensive and it did not disappoint. However, I do believe you can absolutely visit this ranch on a budget.... Probably one of the best experiences was their ranch safari and that is a nominal price and totally worth it! You can see the entire property and all of the animals on the safari trip. Additionally they have fantastic cabins that are themed, and if you have children under the age of 10, the pirate themed cabins are beyond your wildest imagination.... as far as I am aware all of the sleeping accommodations include kitchens so you can absolutely cook for your family instead of paying for the delicious ranch food. That said... Chef Alan is phenomenal and out of this world excellent chef. Each meal was made with love and artistry. The staff at Blue Hills Ranch all go above and beyond to create lasting memories for you. I absolutely recommend this experience as a NOT TO BE MISSED event! We are already planning a return in October/November depending on availability . Cannot wait. Looking forward to being among these amazing staff members (shout-out to Jen, Anne, Shelby, Emily, Chesney, Alan...) the guard dogs, and all of the incredible exotic animals. Thank you, Matt!
