You Can Stay Here When You Visit the Old Hometown











From the Mexia Daily: Another outstanding lodging place is heading for Mexia, as the city and area continue their growth. Best Western is already "in." The above rendering is that of Holiday Inn Express, for which the Mexia Economic Development Corporation (EDC) has voted a $225,000 forgivable loan. Officially, the loan goes to Mexia Lodging, L.P. for construction of a 61-unit Holiday Inn Express. The loan is subject to approval of the Mexia City Council, which could act upon the matter at its next meeting next month. The proposed hospitality facility is estimated to cost $4.3 million when completed. In addition to 61 guest rooms and suites, the hotel will offer a meeting room capable of handling groups up to 50 people. One of the four partners in Mexia Lodging L.P. is home-grown, K.C. Patel. Construction on the new facility should begin next month.
