The Ramada in Brooks is a decidedly average hotel, and that isn't necessarily a bad thing. When I travel for work, I want predictability. I want to know exactly what I'm going to get before I arrive. The Ramada offers just that.
Check-in was quick and easy and there is plenty of parking. My room was situated just above the lobby and I was worried that would make it loud at night but there were no problems. It was actually a bit more spacious than most standard rooms I've stayed in. While it didn't have a full kitchenette, it was nice having a bar fridge, microwave, and sink in the room. The only issue I had was that the wi-fi signal in my room was quite weak.
The exercise facility at this hotel is exceptional. Most hotels offer 2-3 cardio machines, and maybe some free weights if you've lucky. However, this one had 5 cardio options, weight machines, free weights, and mats for guest use. Very impressed. I was also happy that the pool area had both a hot tub and a steam room, both of which were a nice way to relax before bed.
Options for hotels in Brooks are pretty limited but at least you can rely on the Ramada for quality service. read more
