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

5.0

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

Service

7.0

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

The motel is right next to the famous Big Texan Steakhouse, which is a great convenience for food lovers.

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