I had a mixed experience at the motel. On one hand, the quirky western decor and proximity to the Big Texan Steakhouse made for a fun stay. However, the cleanliness and upkeep left something to be desired, as the room had some maintenance issues. The service was efficient, though lacking a personal touch, and the overall value was decent considering the unique theme.
Rooms

The room had a rustic style but was not well-maintained. The bedding was uncomfortable, with flat pillows, which made sleeping difficult.

I appreciated the text-based communication for check-in and check-out, but the lack of in-person interaction made it feel less welcoming.

Dining at the steakhouse was an adventure, but options could have been more varied and the quality was hit or miss.

While the shared facilities were decent, the pool had some quirks, and the outdated decor in certain areas was noticeable.
