Residence Inn Bryan College Station

Teen accidentally left a small expensive item (electronic device) in our room. After inquiring, it was found and held so our local family member could pick it up. We were very grateful.

The fire alarm went off multiple times during the night due to system malfunction. This also made the elevators inoperable. The night manager stated that this has been an ongoing problem with the system and not a one-off incident. The hotel only had 1 staff member on overnight and no way to fix the problem.

I stopped into this place by accident, only looking for some zzz's and to be on my way in the morning. I have used this community before, and the college all but guarantees a decent quality room at an affordable rate. I had not used this property before, but my first impressions of the place were how clean and maintained the place was. The desk agent who checked us in, I believe was mark, was most professional and courteous in the process. When we got our keys and got to our room it was in equally clean, and well maintained order. The only things I found that did not work were the work light over the kitchenette, and the dishwasher door apparently locked, as nothing was going to release it, and it didn't have a slider on the front to open it. I couldn't use the percolator assuming that the urn was in there, and I couldn't get it open. It was an overnight stay, and I had no intention of cooking anything beyond warming up a cup of coffee in the microwave. When it was time for breakfast they had a pretty standard fare of scrambled eggs, meat, toast, oatmeal, waffles, yogurt, fruit, and cereals. All of it was well prepared with an inviting service area and very clean tables and dining room. I've one suggestion that would make the property more appealing than it is today. The HVAC unit evaporator motor literally roared, loud enough it interfered with hearing the TV. Additionally, while in the breakfast area there was another blower vibrating so loudly it was vibrating parts of the building, and again creating excessive amounts of noise. This is Texas, and these units run year-around, and I'm sure the motors in there, while turning, are very aged. I left the next morning by 10 with a good feeling about the place, and I'd not hesitated to use them again, or recommend them. The rate was good, the property exemplary, and the stay a positive experience. And, there's lots of collateral businesses in the area close by for any kind of shopping desire a guest may have. And, the college is not more than ¼ mile away to the West.
