OYO Hotel Brownwood Hwy 67 - Brownwood, Texas

Celeste Medrano

The room was awful, the bedding and sheets were stained. The towels were stained. No trash can at all. The restroom had caulk hanging from the ceilings and the shower curtain rod, and light fixture. The toilet was worn badly. The sink faucets were corroded. It smelled awful and I am pretty sure I got bed bug bites on my arm. The door did lock, but wouldn't shut tight. I will never stay at this motel again. Even for the cheap price, it is not worth it.

Checked in upon arriving in Brownwood. Desk clerk was sweet as punch. Very helpful and professional. She gave me my room key and I went to my room. First stop: restroom. I sat down and noticed a hole in the bathtub where the soap dish used to be. Looking around, I noticed the dish was laying in the rim of the tub. I went back up to the office to report it as there was not a phone in the room. She immediately apologized and reassigned me to another room, directly in front of the pool! (How convenient for me). The room was nicer, had carpet instead of plank floors and it was cold which I loved! The bed was comfortable enough but could use more pillows. I wasn’t looking for the Ritz Carlton so this hotel served its purpose. The shower was adequate but it didn’t drain very well so they may want to consider some drain-o .. also, the tv was weird. You had to stand right in front of it (like inches) to change channels. But the pool was awesomely warm and inviting. I enjoyed taking a swim. The advert says there is a hot tub but it’s currently non operational. I didn’t even see one .. there are two side buildings that are not being used and are simply storage . She did say that the property was just bought in May and they are in the midst of renovations. Overall a nice little QUIET hotel. I would stay here again ..

This place seems like it's being worked on but in the state it's in, it would be better if they just shut it down until they can achieve even a basic facsimile of what a cheap motel is supposed to be. At the very least, a motel should have clean towels in the bathroom. There were zero towels at all. Zero towels arrived upon request. I guess they just had zero towels period. I give them points for having clean beds as far as I could tell after inspecting for bed bugs. I found no bed bugs so thumbs up there but I'll have to take points off for things like a broken, mold infested mini fridge. Look, I get it if you are renovating your motel ; it desperately needs it. I just don't get how incomplete it really feels for what's there. The cleaning staff obviously doesn't care very much if there's mold in the non working fridge. That was the straw that broke the camel's back for me. I also thought it was creepy that there were two motel buildings boarded up in the back. It looked haunted and very sketchy. I will be sure to avoid all OYO Hotels in the future because of the poor experience I had at this one. Disclaimer: I didn't stay here all night. I don't think anyone in the right mind would, to be honest. And just because it's a "cheap" motel, doesn't give it a pass to be so poorly maintained. I've stayed in far better managed motels for far cheaper than asking price and they actually had towels.

It took them programing the keys three times before we could get into the room. There was no TV in the room, the bath tub had rust stains. And to if that's not bad enough uncovered electrical boxes with exposed wires. We where in the room for less than 5 minutes, went to the front desk to check out and get a fefund, they gave us a number to call, the customer service agent told us that it was the hotels responsibility to refund us but the hotel refused to refund us, stating that it was "Company policy that the hotel it's self couldn't on the site refund us our money". If I could give it no stars, I would. They almost ruined our Honeymoon.

Just to let you know, this hotel has been demolished. It is nothing but piles of concrete. I did stay here one night back in 2012 and it was seedy. Nothing but piles of concrete now. I hope the new place will be better.

Hotel has been closed for quite some time as of 2022. Not available.
Edit 05/02/2023: The old Oyo appears to be under construction... perhaps it will be open again with some [badly needed] updates. Originally a Holiday Inn, its been standing for around 50 years. It's definitely time for those updates OR total demolition.
Edit 08/10/2023: Appears they opted for total demolition. The historic place has been reduced to piles of debris that they've been cleaning up for weeks now. Can't wait to see what they do with the place! Safe travels all!

I want to add that everytime I reach out to the property manager I get told she is in a meeting, thw last time I was laughed at. This hotel refuses to refund my money! Do not stay at this hotel. It is absolutely horrible!

Listen to the previous reviews. This hotel was horrible to say the least. The front desk was super sweet, but that only goes so far. As soon as walking in towards the room, it reeked of drugs. Got to the room and the curtains where pinned together and would not close. There was cups of milk left in the fridge and what I hope was tea. We did not even try to stay after all of this. If I could leave pictures on the review, I would. Corporate seriously needs to come in and fix this place. The only other nice looking thing was the pool. Hotel has potential with some major investing. Guys the cheap price isn't even worth it. Just don't stay. I tried to give it a chance even with the bad reviews. A big fat nope

When we arrived there were three police cars parked in front of office. One of the employees had been fighting with boyfriend in the lobby before our arrival. That should have been our first clue. After the police left I tried to check in. There was so much confusion that it was hard to get checked in. The girl checking me in asked for my driver's license and then set it back down because our room was not ready yet. She told me that it would be two hours before room was ready. The general manager was cleaning rooms and rejected giving us the room that the check in lady was offering. So she had to quickly clean a room for us. After checking in, she told us they had no TV cable. Also found out that they no longer have a bar and no longer serve breakfast as advertised. I did not get my driver's license back. Later when I checked for it, they did know where it was. After getting to the room we found out that the internet did not work in those rooms. I was told that the service provider was working on it at that time and had just rebooted it. Found out later that was another lie. The provider was not there. I found a bug in the bathroom that had been there for a while. I was going to flush it down the commode, but the commode wouldn't flush. I reported the commode not working and was told that I would have to mess with the float to make it work. I had to mess with the float Everytime we used the commode. I asked for a couple more towels because there was only one towel. They were out but would put two more towels in the room in about an hour. This is when I found out that another room next to me had a TV in the room and was able to stream from his phone to the TV. I asked for a TV. We were going out to eat and they said there would be a TV and towels in my room when we returned. When we got back, there still was no towels, no TV and internet still didn't work. I went to the office to get the towels so we could shower. While I was waiting for my towels, two other people requested a refund because of all the problems they encountered. The girl in the office tried to call her general manager, but the general manager would not answer the phone. I went back to the room to find out that the bathtub did not work.
This location is not ready for business. It needs to be closed until it is ready for business.
