When I arrived to check into my room, I was told that they were unable to check anybody in because of a sewage condition. I was not alerted of this before my arrival. I had to scramble at the last minute and find another place to stay.

Avoid this hotel!

Several of us could not check in. There was no one there. We called for help and got none. I then read some reviews where others had to sleep in their call. Fortunately, I found an alternative hotel

I booked with Expedia to stay at the OYO in Waco, Texas September 12-14. I arrived at 3pm at the OYO. The woman behind the counter said they had no rooms. I said I have a reservation. She said they did not have a room. I said that doesn't make sense. She said she had one room without a tv but she was waiting on maintenance. I said I would take that room. She said I couldn't have it. She gave me the number (347) 752-4172 for Oyo customer service. I left and called the number. It was an automated message saying my reservation was cancelled. I ended up without a room. I AM TICKED.

We pulled up to check in and it looked filthy. There was an old laundry cart with shredded fabric in the parking lot. Garbage all over. We pulled around the building and a cleaning lady was dumping dirty water into the parking lot from the second floor. My husband said we were not going to stay in such a disgusting place. We left abs stayed somewhere else!! Would not suggest for anyone to stay there.

Upon arrival to the hotel, the lobby was full of people that found out their reserved rooms were no longer available. I gave the the clerk my booking number provided from OYO, they claimed the room was already booked. Hotel rooms were going at a premium that night because of the sun eclipse and it seems the clerk was taking advantage of the situation at the expense of people that had legitimate reservations.

Didn't make it past the check-in. Upon arriving, the frint office required $50 cash deposit for "pets" which we did not have with us. The clerk stated their credit card machine was broken. Cancelled booking at front desk. Hoping for a refund.

The pillows smelled like dirt, there was no doorknob on the bathroom door, there were numerous holes in the walls with toilet paper stuffed in them and stains everywhere, the door was not sealed and allowed sunlight to seep through the door, there was no coffee pot in room or lobby for hot water, the trashcan was full of black water, when i went for check-out after 8 am, the doors were locked and nobody was there to help. I was very disappointed in my stay.

Showed up. I had a pre-paid, non- refundable reservation. The lady behind the window said they had no rooms. I explained my reservation wàs prepaid non refundable and she said they had no rooms. Did not explain why and did not even help me relocate. Horrible service for someone who had a prepaid reservation. I will never stay at one of their hotels.

They stole our money just look at the reviews. These people are stealing your money. Expedia rep booked this hotel for me and when my husband arrived, they have a note saying they’re not there after 11 so this is fraud they should not make you pay just to keep your money, don’t stay here. They are greedy and just take peoples money. They should not allow you to rent a room if they are not available. They have all horrible reviews.

Less than average

Hotel has a hard time for check in - made this inconvienent when I had to go waste 40 min to wait for check in. Room had no phone, frig was froze over, Shower has multiple tiles that are close to falling out. old food and personal items found in side drawer. No chain for door. Good side, sheets were clean and room appeared to be have painted. If you are looking for a nice place to stay, this is not it. If you are just looking for a place to sleep then it is ok.

Hard Pass

I'd be embarrassed to let anyone pay for this room, much less the price gouging because of the eclipse. There is no pride in this property -- it's exceptionally run down. Stains all over the walls. Water stains on the ceiling. Mold in the bathroom. The TV came on, but there was no signal to allow you to watch programming. There was this random, beat up, office chair just put in the room for some reason (there's no desk). The bath mat had holes in it. The beds were decent to sleep in, and the water pressure was ok. Still, I'd either fix this place up or close it down.
