Axel's take: 7.0/10
Handy for hospital visits, with helpful staff but uneven room upkeep. A budget-friendly 3-star near Lubbock’s hospitals and Texas Tech, scored for what it is.
This budget-friendly 3-star is a practical option for hospital visits and Texas Tech trips, rather than somewhere we’d choose for a special stay. Wyndham confirms free breakfast, a seasonal outdoor pool and a fitness center. Recent Expedia guests repeatedly praise the helpful staff, and several describe spacious, clean rooms. We’d consider it for a short, straightforward stay when convenience matters most.
The catch is consistency. Booking.com reviews reproduced on Planet of Hotels repeatedly mention worn furnishings, missed cleaning and broken room fixtures, alongside plenty of satisfied guests. Guests on both Expedia and that review feed reported elevator outages in summer 2026; confirm reliability if stairs would be difficult. We’d skip it if spotless upkeep or dependable facilities are essential.
