Comfort Suites Waco North - Near University Area
The place was clean. The staff friendly and professional. As far as breakfast — I think they used powdered eggs and the sausage was meh. The did have the waffles you make yourself and also had hard boiled eggs and yogurt. Very pet friendly. Our girl was happy there. Would definitely stay again.
