The hot breakfast was good, the beds were very comfortable, and the room air conditioner was nice and quiet. There was a big dent in the floor, the tub paint was falling off, wall paint was falling off, and there was actually a handle missing from one of the drawers in the bedroom! The staff did not seem to care when I told them that I had multiple complaints. I would not stay there again.

Man this place ain’t been renovated since it opened. The tub was chipped and chipping had to shower with shower slippers!!! The room smelled like old ancient never aired out before!!! The window didn’t even have a mesh to keep bugs out so u can at least open the windows and air the place out. It smelled horrible. The bed even smelled like the mattress been there forever. Man I was only in Texas for two days and I was barely inside but mannn when it came time for me to go in to sleep and shower I hated it!
