Frommer's Review

The Southern Colonial architecture (complete with white pillars and a redbrick exterior) of this urban bed-and-breakfast belies its age: Built in 1995, the Woodrow House combines Texas tradition with modern amenities. The suite here -- a retrofit Santa Fe caboose in the backyard -- is a real eye-catcher, and my favorite room in town. It has a queen-size bed framed by wrought iron and a foldout futon, as well as a kitchenette. The old engineers' seats are now great spots to sit and read. Inside, visitors enjoy an elegant parlor and seven themed rooms. The Lone Star Room is a lot of fun: a framed Republic of Texas dollar, longhorn skulls, a Texas flag, and a king-size bed. But if your nostalgic leanings are a bit more modern, book the '50s Room, where images of Buddy Holly and Elvis abound.

Facilities:
Babysitting; laundry service

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
