9.4/10 Exceptional! (43 reviews)
We stayed at the Greyhound Inn during college move-in weekend. I love boutique hotels and this one was really cute. The room was spacious and nicely laid out. I loved the separate dining area and kitchenette. Since it is contactless, check in was a little bit challenging for us, but once we got it straight, everything was great. The concierge was very helpful. We will definitely stay here again while my student is in Tyler.

Overall, The stay was lovely. Everything was nice, clean, staff were welcoming and helpful. Only thing was the view from suite 3 and the internet was out the entire time. We couldn’t watch anything on the TV which was hard on my kid! Would definitely recommend though!
