This Hampton Inn was a surprise, to say the least! I was en route to College Station from Victoria…read morearea late one night, and decided to stop here due to fatigue. The room with the king-sized bed was renovated/updated, along with the rest of the property (obviously). This style of room was different, as it felt a fifth smaller of its size from what I've stayed in previously with other Hampton Inn properties. Despite this, I absolutely love it! The size allowed for a more intimate feel to it. Standard Hampton Inn breakfast, and parking was pretty decent. The property is adjacent to a Dollar Tree if you wanted to pick up certain things for travel, which I found convenient. The highway access wasn't far at all either. La Grange is a fairly small town, and not really like Bryan area at all. I had my best sleep in over a week due to how quiet the surrounding area was, in addition to the hotel during the week. Will certainly stay here again!

Noise wasn't an issue but it looked like a homeless camp on the sidewalk. Old food boxes brought flies. Only other complaint was the ice machine, door was half open and it's outside. Don't think I would use that ice in my drinks. Staff was friendly. We've stayed here many times before but not so sure about future stays.

Law enforcement advised us not to stay there again. Seriously!…read more This place must have changed ownership/management at some point, given the number of positive reviews. It has so much potential, but it attracts a questionable crowd. PROS: The room we stayed in was clean, spacious, and seemed to have been renovated somewhat recently. There are 2 nice outdoor spaces to hang out and enjoy the evening, a deck and a covered sitting area. CONS: Loud cars drove thru the parking a lot a few times overnite. Several guests seem to live at this motel. One couple seemed fine, but a couple of other folks just looked *sketchy.* When we left at 7:30 on a Sat. morning, a sheriff's car and a city police car were parked outside. One officer kept banging on the door of a guest room, calling the person by name and telling them to open the door, which they weren't doing. Another was standing in front of the office door ringing the doorbell repeatedly, because no one was there and didn't respond. We said good morning, and he said, "I wouldn't stay here again if I were you." It definitely sounded like this was not an unusual event at this hotel, which matched our impressions about some of the long-term guests.

We were in area to visit the 7 painted churches tour so worked ok with the location to visit those. Not sure we would stay in area again with limited activities and no Czech - local food to enjoy while visiting.

This will be long but want to be fair. Upon arrival the hotel was clean & presentable…read more We arrived late. Check in was friendly and easy. Bed & pillows were very clean & comfortable. Refrigerator & clean towels were provided in the room. For these things alone, I would've given a 5 star rating. And, I love that pets are allowed; but, this is where the 5 rating becomes a 3. Pets are allowed and it's quite noticeable the moment I opened the door to the room. The room smelled heavily of pet urine the moment you open the door. Frayed carpeting, sticky floors in entry & bathroom. Strong smell of pet urine in the corners of the bathroom that worsened as you got closer. Heavily stained furniture. I avoided sitting on the sofa. Door of our room: Damaged and warped at the bottom corner of the door, leaving a significant gap between the lower corner of the room door and door jamb. As a woman, if traveling alone, I would not have felt safe. It was late and told no other rooms were available. Later found out that there were other rooms with 2 queen beds available, ours was a King room. Extremely large rooms. In room coffee maker is available upon request but I highly recommend their fresh ground coffee offered at breakfast. Although a shower cap and laundry bag weren't offered in the room, I was able to obtain them from the front desk. The shower/tub combo doesn't have a clean or inviting appearance. Surprisingly, the pressure was super nice. Bathtub/shower combo had a non-slip surface but pealing around the drain. Again, despite the appearance, the shower delivered an extremely relaxing spray. Bathroom toilet and sink were very clean. Other room amenities: Iron with iron board. 2 hangers. Complimentary toiletries included hand wash, lotion and hair dryer. As another reviewer said, this place has so much potential. The odor and sticky floors were very off putting - Found myself playing a mental game of the Floor is lava. When I got into the car the following morning I could smell pet odor emitting from the soles of my shoes. At this point, I called the hotel, I spoke to the manager and let her know how unsettling & unpleasant the odor was. She was very confused by the odor, saying no one had used the room for a very long time. They just replaced the AC in that unit. In spite of what she said, it smelled like a boarding kennel and that a dog had been left unattended for a while. She offered to check it. Although I left a privacy placard on the door, I gave her permission to enter and have a housekeeping attendant to enter with her to mop the floor; which improved the situation. I'd really like to give this establishment a 5 star rating because the bed and pillows were extremely comfortable and clean, as were the towels. They were very fresh and white as any 5 star hotel. I'm giving a 3 rating for others to be aware. I love that it's a pet friendly place. Sometimes leaving fur babies at home is unavoidable. Truly, it's a joint effort of the hotel guests to help the hotel management to keep the establishment cleanly. I'd advise to travel with a crate or a play pen for your pet. As a pet lover I'm very compassionate so when I stay in pet friendly hotels I travel with Febreze Pet Odor remover; which was a huge save on my allergies and made my 2 night stay tolerable. I hope to hear they've made improvements in the areas of safety and odor. I'd like to stay here in the future. I hope this helps you on your journey and I wish you safe travels.

The front desk attendant was friendly, kind, and accommodating considering what time I had called to check for availability. Check in was quick and effortless. Unfortunately that's where my recommendation of this hotel stops. Our room was in need of a renovation and a deep cleaning. Everything from the counter that held the TV to the bedskirt showed major signs of wear. The bathtub had grime buildup on the faucet and handle as did the sink. The light fixtures could use a good wipe down as it looked like there were grease stains on them. The carpet wasn't the cleanest either. This hotel has so much potential with just a little facelift.

Paranormal Activity Cut Our Visit Short!…read more We were looking forward to a relaxing weekend at Belle Oaks and were drawn in by the charming photos and description. But from the moment we arrived, it was clear that--while still beautiful--the inn was showing signs of wear, a faded echo of its restored glory from 20 years ago. What we liked: The property retains a nostalgic charm, with antiques adorning every corner. The hosts greeted us warmly and shared a bit of the inn's history. To their credit, they did warn us that the older electrical circuits might cause occasional flickering lights. What we didn't expect: Lights turning on and off by themselves. The television powering on in the middle of the night. Bed sheets being pulled off us while we slept. Feeling as if I was being touched and it wasn't my husband. The paranormal energy was far more intense than we'd anticipated--and ultimately, we decided to cut our trip short. Other concerns: The pool was dirty, and while breakfast was tasty, it was surprisingly sparse. As someone who's stayed in many bed and breakfasts, this was the first time I've encountered a buffet-style setup with no table settings, no water service, and a limited selection. We left both hungry and unnerved. Speaking with locals we learned that stories abound about hauntings in Gonzales.

They offered fire pits and hot tubs that were great We loved: Complimentary hot tea and coffee. Refrigerators in the rooms and glassware/cups for your own bevies. They offer games (if you're into a little cards or something with the ladies) and music throughout the property (ends at 10pm). Very comfortable beds and pillows with daily room cleaning and fresh towels. Pro tips: You could bring stuff to cook breakfast and use the full kitchen in the main house. There aren't many breakfast options in Round Top. You can also book the chef ahead of time to cook for you! Some rooms don't have very good coverings in the windows so if privacy is important, try room 7! Great location and private. Very quiet! We never heard a thing from any other guests.

Our king size bed was quite comfortable and the refrigerator and microwave were fully functional; my first issue, however is that while the TV was centrally located in the room we only had one chair and had to ask for a additional chair to be brought to our room and then a minor thing is that the quality of toilet paper (1 ply sheets) this hotel supplies it's customers is of absolutely poor quality almost like sandpaper.
