Find a different hotel

We won't stay there again. We had to wait two hours in our car for heat before personnel arrived. We should have left but had driven all day and couldn't go further. Wish they told us when we talked to the mgr they would be back in 2 hrs and not just "pretty soon." There is no sufficient heat in the rooms and a space heater is not acceptable. One bed was unusable so we used the otherr double bed in the room. Woefully uncomfortable and stripped the other bed for its extra blanket to stay warm.The carpeting was too filthy to walk on, the bathroom had NO toilet paper, drapes didn't fit window correctly for privacy. It was bad. The owner is not on site and needs to address this nightmare!

Very nice staff at check-in. Maybe because it's October, the town was very quiet -- there were not a lot of dining options.

Museum visit stay.

Although it is an older hotel it was clean and well maintained. In the middle of downtown so just parked and walk. Right on the highway which had minimal traffic at night which i did not hear.

It was a bit tricky to find the parking but after that of was smooth sailing! If you want somewhere relatively cheap, next to a dispensary, grocery store, multiple gas stations, and places to eat. Then this would be the place to go. You are also 10 minutes from the trinity river! Overall a great location.

A one time stay

The room was very outdated and did not feel clean. The carpet was gross and the beds not in great shape. We stayed because my son wanted the Bigfoot experience from Buzzfeed. I would not stay again. Nice people but it needs a major overhaul to bring it up to date as well as a very deep cleaning.

Average budget motel room, slightly dingy but overall fine. Check in guy was really friendly, place felt safe, bed was comfortable, shower had hot water and good pressure. But I did notice there was no smoke alarm in the room, and they were kind of cheap with the linens (no bath mat). No really Bigfoot theme either, although there were a few Bigfoot pictures in my room. The vibe was kind of depressing, but I would probably stay there again because it was located right in the middle of town, and like I said, it was basically fine.
