Very nice stay, clean and comfortable. The water did go off at 7am for an hour but we are early risers so not a factor for us. Couldn’t find the ice machine. These were minor issues for us. We like the fact we could walk to the restaurant and brewery. All in all we would go back.

Cute hotel! Great theming and lots of fun. Each room different, but comfortable. The Big Texan next door is great for meals and for a little entertainment for the kids too. Parking wasn't fun for us as we had a trailer. Had to park very very far away and walk all that way with our luggage in multiple trips. Bed was a little hard. The self-check-in was a cool idea and appreciated, but I had trouble with check out on my phone and tried calling twice but no answer.

The Big Texas Motel was a nice place to stay. Nothing fancy just neat rustic rooms, Texas shaped pool and a great location next to the Big Texan Steak Ranch restaurant.
