We were disappointed with Expedia. Com
We never got to the room. Expedia over booked the room there were no availability. They were booked for weeks in advanced we were there for a very Special Wedding and we didn't have a place to shower nor change our clothes we were very disappointed with Expedia. We need to request a refund.

The General Manger Grace was a very polite and helpful when we arrived to the hotel. But the housekeeping staff on the other hand came in our room and threw blankets over bed and didn't fix the bed or clean the room at all during our stay.

Almost perfect.
Everything about the hotel was excellent with the exception of breakfast. They had been really busy all weekend and ran out of just about everything for breakfast (ie no plates, no coffee cups, no creamer for coffee etc).

Nice hotel in Blanco, TX
A nice, well maintained hotel in the small town of Blanco, TX. The owner greeted me at reception and was awesome. The hotel is older, but clean, well-maintained, and the room was great. They were doing some renovations, so it will be even nicer soon. I enjoyed my stay and was pleased by the friendliness, professionalism and helpfulness of the owner and staff.

Although we loved the location of the hotel, the furniture in the room was a huge turn off. If wasn’t very comfortable, seemed cheap, and didn’t go with a hotel in the beautiful hill country. In addition the carpet was horrible. I will definitely rethink staying here next time I visit Blenco.
