“Knights Inn Franklin Ave in Waco strikes me as a practical choice, particularly for budget-conscious travelers who prioritize affordability over frills. It's located on a corner near the highways, which, while not downtown, positions it well for easy transit. While some have pointed out issues regarding safety and customer service, others have found the owners amiable, making it a mixed bag of experiences.”
