1) Is it a motel, hotel, mohotel, moohtel?!2) Need an ATM? Good luck. We went to our bank building in downtown Waco, and no ATM machines. Plenty of tellers standing around with nothing to do, though. We ended up going to a Walgreens in Beverly Hills (TX).
3) Dr Pepper Museum - $7 each admission with audio. We were Waco-weary by opening time. Pass, we'll take the photo and go. It is a pretty building, though!
But on the positive side --
The Hampton Inn in Bellmead (just northeast of Waco, along I-35), was the nicest we've ever stayed in. Indoor and outdoor pool, flat panel TV, wet bar, micro, fridge. Business center with 3 computers was accessible by front desk card only -- for security and keeping out kids. Free water bottles in the workout room. Much, much nicer than the Hampton in Plano.
A nice Luby's and Shipley donuts - our hometown/homesick touch, again in Bellmead. The Shipley "Bull's Eye" donut there had an extra dollup of chocolate and sprinkles on top. (No, I did not eat one, it was L's)
Very friendly Walgreen's in Beverly Hills - southwest of Waco, alongI-35. The clerk tried to talk us into the limited edition Elvis Reese Peanut Butter cups, with banana! Sounded too gaggy to me, even she said she hadn't tried them yet.
