Comfortable bed. Great water pressure. Tub/shower stall in very poor condition. I would not use shower without wearing flip flops or shower shoes. Overhead light in vanity area missing glass cover over light bulbs and extremely dusty. Ongoing construction on property and street noise very loud. Female front desk attendant was the highlight as she expertly managed anangry hostile customer before us and was very professional.

The room was clean and the bed very comfortable. Their Continental breakfast was not good. The only good thing were the waffles. Not a good variety offered. The cereal looked old and stale, bananas the only fruit offered, and the coffee was undrinkable. I asked for the room to be cleaned the 2nd nite, they emptied the trash and left clean towels. The bed sheets were not changed, nor were there new shampoos and soaps replenished.

Excellent front desk help. Property seems extremely old and worn. Bathtub needs replacing. Made the whole place seem dirty and it wasn’t.

The place itself has a charming feel to it, but is on a very busy road and an area that does not feel conducive to walking. It's within a few minutes drive of the Rio Grande River and parks along there which is nice. The staff at check-in didn't know the process (I guess it was the maintenance person filling in) and the check-out person was on a personal call and didn't even listen to my comments that the TV was not working in my room AND the phone in the room is not connected so I could not contact the front desk for help. He did not seem to care at all. The road next to the hotel is VERY LOUD almost all night with tricked-out cars cruising and racing. The AC unit is very loud as well so it did not make for a restful night, although the bed and room was comfortable enough. The morning breakfast was bare-bones with only bananas for fruit and no dairy alternatives for the coffee or tea. Overall, I would not stay here again.

Nice people but hotel is right on main street. Cars racing around all night keep waking us up. Room was the biggest of all places I stayed on a week-long trip and had the best breakfast too. Pool was indoors & very small....occupied by kids so didn't want to get in.

Updated rooms and friendly owners / staff. Location could be better – lots of folks roaming the sidewalks – but the owners have gone to great lengths to make sure that the property itself feels safe, with multiple security cameras and a well-lit parking lot. Rooms are well-insulated from road noise, A/C is fantastic, and make-your-own waffles for breakfast were a nice touch.
