Super 8 Abilene

There was some hair in the bathtub and the breakfast did not have much to offer, but the room was very nice and the hotel was safe. The people of Abilene are wonderful and helpful. I would recommend this hotel.

A friend and I stayed here while we were on a road trip. We booked it through a third party booking agency and had no issues when checking in. Our room was on the «first» level, but you had to go down about five steps to get to that level (no big deal). The rooms faced an inside hallway and were accessible through the lobby or an outside door (which had to be opened with a room key). Our room and bathroom were clean and the beds were comfortable. The only small issue (which didn’t affect us) was that the fridge was unplugged. We plugged it back in but even by the next day, it hadn’t cooled off. We didn’t need to use it, so that was fine. We did use the microwave and it worked fine. This was perfect for what we needed, a place to sleep for the night. The lady who checked us in was super nice (I can’t remember her name though). We did enjoy the free breakfast the next day. It was simple stuff like cereal, fruit, or waffles, but it was just what we needed. We didn’t use the pool so I can’t comment on that. A good place to stay if you are passing through town.

One of eight Super8s I stayed at during a cross-​country trip. I was traveling with my dog, & this was the first one in which the room was a designated pet room (sign on door). Also the first one that had tiled, rather than carpeted floors… felt a little like staying in a basement laundry room. I understand the practicality of pet-​proof flooring, but some subfloor heating or at least nicer tile would’ve made this nice for both parties, instead of being so dank & cold.
In addition, this was the first Super8 I stayed at that did not have a microwave in the room, nor any art whatsoever on the room’s walls. This appears to be a newer building, yet the room tv was an old analog box TV, not a flat screen. I had no option for a single bed, so had to pay extra for a double. Ugly floral bedspreads didn’t match the stylish, modern ones found at other Super 8s.
There was very little cold water pressure in the sink. The room was adjacent to housekeeping’s storage room, so the hallway was often noisy & cluttered and doors were being slammed during quiet hours. There is no lock on the rear door of the building, so not great security. The electric wall heater took a long time to heat the room.
On the plus side, the hallways & room smelled cleaner than any of the other Super 8s, the exterior grounds were also cleaner, and the rear parking lot had lots of room.
It may be that only the designated pet rooms here are spartan. But I would recommend looking at other hotels before this one.

A clean nice hotel. Staff was always courteous, helpful and accommodating. Breakfast was always out on timeand good as buffet breakfast goes. Recommended to me and I would recommend it to others.

An average Super 8. Now don’t get me wrong, that is not a slam. I am a huge fan of Super 8 as a chain. This one is average within that scope.
If you are a fan of Super 8, like me, don’t hesitate to stay here if you are stopping in Abeline.
