It served the purpose of a place to sleep. The area was quiet which was great. Motel is dated but in good condition. The room offers cable tv, coffee maker, dryer and small fridge, shampoo, conditioner and bar soap provided. Bed was too firm for my comfort.

Decent Value for the money
Decent little non-descript place. Fine for our stay as we weren't in the room much. Nothing fancy but good overall value. Room was good-sized and relatively clean. Bed was comfortable. What we paid was a bit pricey but there was a big event in town. Normal prices are more reasonable.

Dump in Fredericksburg
I'm fed up with Hotels.com rating system. This is the 3rd time this year this has happened. This hotel was rated 8.2, and the reviews were outstanding. You can't trust any of this. This motel did not have housekeeping; it had a window unit air conditioner that shut on and off constantly; the TV audio cut on and off; the parking lot was not even paved. The coffee creamer was spoiled; the door lock was flimsy; the toilet was dirty. The wifi was so weak it was useless.
Front of motel gravel drive with big pothholes.
Window unit air conditioner, TV that had audio that cut off and on.
This door handle was loose and flimsy. We did not feel secure. There was a dead bolt. but you could not lock it from the outside when you left the room. The key did not fit it.

At first glance this place can look a little dated but the bed is amazingly comfortable along with the pillows. The motel is quiet, very close to down town, cute and charming. The staff are all friendly and helpful. And the motel is very convenient to everything you need or want. I felt extremely safe traveling alone here. Should I come back I will definitely be staying here!

It was a mile walk from Main st marketplace during Oktoberfest and the historical downtown area, 25 minutes from Enchanted Rock. Keep in mind it is the last building of the Main street, rock & dirt entrance, and it is a 1970's style "Motel". Dated decor and simple dorm type bathroom, but clean towels. However, it fit the need to rest and shower as needed. Very quiet area, accessible pool, be careful with the wandering deer.

I love a motel in general. I also love supporting small businesses. Generally, I feel like that might mean I sacrifice good toiletries but those were good too. Our window opened up on a lovely meadow with deer in it. It was peaceful and quiet and I was confident that that money we spent stayed in that community.

This was our second time staying at this property. The first time we thought everything was just great and had no complaints. This time, though we still like this property, the room we had had poor water pressure and would get suddenly hot or cool, even at 11 PM when I wouldn’t anticipate other people using much water. I do plan to stay here again but will ask in advance for a room without those issues. To repeat my other review, clean room and property, comfy bed, a budget-friendly stay with all the basic amenities.

Outdated but safe and clean. As long as you know the trade-off for the lower rates, it's an acceptable option on a tight budget.

The property first off was listed as Pet Friendly, it wasn't, no pet allowed. It also was a dingy and unsafe looking property, nothing like the photos on website. The owner allowed us to cancel the reservation for the first night that we had made on his website. However, when I went on expedia to cancel, wouldn't allow with a refund. The owner said he had nothing to do with the expedia website and couldn't refund our money for the night of 4th July.
