Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Manager was friendly and efficient. Property has been nicely restored and is well maintained. Our room was very clean and the parking was excellent with luxuriant, full-sized spaces that can accommodate almost any vehicle with room to get in and out of the car. Most places you need a shoe horn to get a Prius in to the space.

This was a great stay for an overnight drive through. I read previous reviews and they were right, it was clean, bed was comphy and a safe area. It has been renovated and we were surprised at how clean it was. We will stay here again when in town.

Unable to access rooms after 10pm

It was NEVER communicated to us that you can’t check in after 10pm. Nobody called us to let us know and no check in process at all if your late. Unable to access the room or find anybody to contact, it goes straight to a dial tone.

While we actually didn't end up staying the night on our last trip, this is our go to place in Van Horn. It is away from the interstate and has everything that you need for a night's stay.
