Mediocre at Best

Chose to stay because of the positive reviews, but it was definitely not up to par with those reviews. Definitely needs a good deep clean and some TLC. Floors, desks, tables, etc. were super dusty. Showers had peeling paint and no hot water, leaky faucets, missing towel hooks, broken mystery deadbolt did not work at all... Overall, not a great experience and we won’t be back.

Adequate for the price. Everything was clean and functional, but both the beds in our room were pretty uncomfortable. Old, squeaky mattresses… like sleeping on an old hide-a-bed.

Id Rather Sleep In A Gas Station Bathroom

If you ever wanted to sleep in a gas station bathroom, then book yourself a room at the Big Texan, but beware you’re probably more likelt to catch a disease or skin rash from the Big Texan than you would a gas station bathroom. Rooms not as advertised in photos. FILTHY DIRTY NASTY. The sides of our mattress were disgusting, there was a stain that was uncleaned, and no other way to describe than clearly poop. This lead me to believe the bedding also wasn’t cleaned to appropriate standards. The overall vibe of the room was grows, run down, and dirty. The ceiling in our room was falling off, peeling all over.There was writing on the walls, dirty bathtub with poor quality amenities like styrofoam cups, cheap old soaps, and the heater was broken. I can not name one thing that i enjoyed about this hotel other than LEAVING! DO NOT DO NOT BOOK A ROOM HERE. DISGUSTING! Awful gross. It will haunt me for the rest of my life!

Payed $20 for pet, had a very small fake green square for dog potty in the middle of all cement lots. The square was filthy and full of poop. The interstate noise was very loud all night long. The room was clean, but negatives outweighed any positive.

Dont bother

The only good thing was cleanliness. The faucets ran or dripped all night. The ceiling was falling down. The furniture was broken. None of the faucets were stable. I got this as an"upgrade" since it was on the first floor and i am unable to carry a suitcase upstairs.

Will not stay here again

Not a good experience. Check in was a nightmare and the motel office was locked (did not arrive late), beds were hard and squeaky with only a light blanket, and our room had no hot water. The noise from the highway is loud and the rooms are minimally furnished at best.
