If your a truck driver and you need a covered shelter to sleep in over night it would be okay. The air conditioning has two spends, freezing and off. Fortuently it is very loud when it is running and you can't hear all the noise outside. ##### jeannie&jerry ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hyatt Place Austin Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Austin-Downtown.h5437747.Hotel-Information) > > [Margaritaville Lake Resort, Lake Conroe/Houston](https://www.expedia.ca/Conroe-Hotels-Margaritaville-Lake-Resort.h28407.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairfield Inn & Suites Victoria](https://www.expedia.ca/Victoria-Hotels-Fairfield-Inn-Suites-Victoria.h28368.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Americas-Houston](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-Hilton-Americas-Houston.h976144.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Dallas](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Fairmont-Dallas.h18280.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott Marquis Houston](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-Marriott-Marquis-Houston.h14986044.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt San Antonio River Walk](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Antonio-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-San-Antonio-River-Walk.h1848212.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Dallas](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Dallas.h24753.Hotel-Information) > > [Morning Star Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Anson-Hotels-Morning-Star-Inn.h12988751.Hotel-Information) > > [Austin Marriott Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Austin-Marriott-Downtown.h45866780.Hotel-Information) > > [Come Friday Cottages on the Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Galveston-Hotels-Come-Friday-Cottages-On-The-Bay.h23207328.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Midland Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Midland-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Midland-Suites.h5388884.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Fairmont-Austin.h18156638.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn Victoria](https://www.expedia.ca/Victoria-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Victoria.h1184075.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Dallas Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Omni-Dallas-Hotel.h4488581.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Lost Pines Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Lost-Pines-Resort-And-Spa.h1437353.Hotel-Information) > > [Margaritaville Beach Resort South Padre Island ](https://www.expedia.ca/South-Padre-Island-Hotels-Pearl-South-Padre.h21996.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Victoria](https://www.expedia.ca/Victoria-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Victoria.h8206987.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Austin.h8778760.Hotel-Information) > > [Horseshoe Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Marble-Falls-Hotels-Horseshoe-Bay-Resort.h1094405.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Midland](https://www.expedia.ca/Midland-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Midland.h6036563.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt DFW - Connected to the airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-DFW.h1209294.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn Vernon](https://www.expedia.ca/Childress-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Vernon.h4525899.Hotel-Information) > > [Houston Airport Marriott at George Bush Intercontinental](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-Houston-Airport-Marriott-At-George-Bush-Intercontinental.h22967.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Antonio-Hotels-JW-Marriott-San-Antonio-Hill-Country-Resort-Spa.h2841775.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Van Zandt](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Hotel-Van-Zandt.h10269315.Hotel-Information) > > [Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Gaylord-Texan-Resort-Convention-Center.h985065.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Austin Downtown - University by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Austin-Downtown-University.h12302973.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Austin Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Omni-Austin-Hotel.h8540.Hotel-Information)
