Staff was great. Our room didnt have sny comfy chairs to sit in. The floors need a good mopping and the tub needs some maintenance and the caulking was moldy. Our heating unit would not get warm and staff replaced it within a couple of hours.i think the blanket and comforter needs replacing and as well as the mattress. Our little housekeeper was very pleasant and sweet, but she needs some training in housekeeping. Not her fault, whoever is in charge needs a training session. The room had rustic charm that needs an overhaul.

Very cute rooms. The whole place is just so much fun. You have to see it to believe it. Best prime rib is it the restaurant associated with it. If you don't stay at The Big Texan at least eat there.
