We are going to be in the area for work the next two weeks. Wondering about hotels and any good places to eat, also things to do. Thanks

Our son graduated from Texas Tech, so we made many trips to Lubbock. We love the sweet potato pancakes at the Pancake House on Avenue Q - also Gardski's on Broadway for a nice dinner - as far as thing to do - if you are into oldies, the Buddy Holly Center is great - also the National Ranching Heritage Museum, but my all-time favorite is the Prairie Dog Town. The Texas Tech campus is beautiful, as well as a visit to the Texas Tech museum is fun. As far as hotels - we usually stayed at the LaQuinta West Medical Center on the Marsha Sharp Freeway - nothing fancy, but it was convenient to our son's house & close to the campus.
Gotta Caribbean soul I can barely control and some Texas hidden here in my heart...(J.B.)

It has been many many years since I was in Lubbock, so can't help with the hotel and restaurant part. Since you are from Iowa, I wonder if all things Buddy Holly might interest you?
