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.

Right next to the Big Texan Steak House, it’s not fancy but always comfortable and clean. The only reason I didn’t give a 5 star on the staff is I didn’t see anyone. Overall this is a great place to stay in Amarillo.

Cute motel. Conveniently located and you can eat next door. I didn’t rate the staff because I didn’t see anyone, nor did I need anything. The room was pleasant and clean. The mattress was not comfortable to me, and I was stiff in the morning. Only stayed one night.

The beds were uncomfortable. The toilet paper was one ply, and the shower flooded the bathroom. The maintenance was changing out water heaters or something in the room next door to us. We couldn't park in front of our room because they had their trucks and work trucks and everything with the water heater stacked up in front of our room. We had to go around in between all their tools and equipment just to get into our room. The air conditioner worked pretty well. It was noisy, and I think they closed the pool at 6 PM, but it was open. So I wasn't really impressed with the hotel. It was a clean room, and the shower had good pressure. Other than that, the remotes for the TV were extremely complicated, so we weren't able to use the TV at all. I don't know; I would rate it two stars. I didn't care much for it.

The unit we were in needed a bit of upkeep and m maintenance. The faucet dropped constantly and the toilet also had a leak in the tank to the bowl. This caused the tier to refill occasionally which squealed when the water ran. The bed was comfy and room nice and cool. It was very clean.

Cute little room. Clean. Lots of towels. Right off the highway so kinda of noisey all night. The parking lot does have security cameras so that was a plus. Plenty to do at the restaurant besides eating. Thats why we stayed here. Kid friendly with a pool and arcade within the restaurant. Very entertaining. Had issues turning the tv on/off with the remote. The guest internet is hit or miss. But everything else was good. Check in and check out are through a text based system so it was super easy. Recommend if you like a fun night.

A very nice and unique experience! The rooms my family stayed in were refurbished to a modern/western theme. No expenses were spared down to a suede shower curtain with a rodeo horse and rider on it! The real wood interior shutters kept sound down to a low minimum and are the best black-out curtains available. I had no problem interacting with the front desk through e-mail before the stay started and all transactions were handled this way with an entry code being sent to enter the property after all clearances and initials were put on e-papers. A simple e-mail checkout worked great as well. A perfect half-way point for my family reunion every summer. We will definitely try this place yearly if not more. Thanks for always thinking of the customers first….it shows in numerous details! Aaron from Arkansas

The property is unique though a little dated which is kind of the point. (Carpeting and linens need replacement). The pool wasn't open at 8:30am and there was no one available to address this to. Very convenient next to The Big Texan Steak House and easy access.

The restaurant was amazing with friendly staff. The check in was easy and the room was clean. It had great shower with a waterfall shower head and hot water, a refrigerator and microwave for leftovers, tv? And comfy beds. Guests signed the door which made interesting stories. There was a beautiful Texas shaped pool and even a horse hotel and a dog run.
