Hotels in Waco, TexasA 3-star extended-stay suite hotel in suburban Woodway
8.7/10
A strong extended-stay pick with roomy kitchens, useful extras, and a car-dependent location.
This 3-star extended-stay hotel in Woodway is a strong pick for travelers who want practical comfort rather than downtown atmosphere. Recent Expedia guests and Google reviews reproduced on Wanderlog repeatedly praise clean, spacious suites, comfortable beds, and friendly staff. Full kitchens, included hot breakfast, free parking, and Monday–Wednesday evening socials make it especially useful for families and longer work trips. An outdoor pool, gym, and guest laundry round out a generous package for its class.
The main compromise is location: downtown Waco and Baylor are roughly six miles away, and the hotel has no complimentary local shuttle. A handful of recent guests describe minor maintenance issues, awkward TV placement, or delayed check-in, but these do not outweigh the broadly positive feedback. Pet fees apply; confirm the terms directly because booking-site descriptions differ. We'd skip it for a walkable Magnolia-focused getaway.
