Excellent Visit!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Big Texan. We had a comfortable room with amenities, including washers and dryers on property, We had the restaurant across the way for a hearty breakfast at a reasonable price and a gift shop for souvenirs. Enjoyed dinner and watching those competing in the 72 ounce steak challenge. Excellent customer service. It was safe with additional security of the premises so we felt safe with our trailer there. We had no issues and will return again!

You can definitely tell this is an old motel that has been fixed up. While the decor is a nice touch, it still has the old motel feel. The bathroom is tiny and the bedspreads looked a little tattered. It was a decent place to spend one night.
