Great place to stay the staff is amazing. I love how the rooms have a theme like mine was western decor with swinging doors like an old western saloon. Plus the bonus of just walking across the parking lot to go dine at the Big Texan steakhouse and the food is awesome.

I enjoy staying at the Big Texan & look forward to a fun & appetizing meal. I like sharing the funkiness with family & friends! I especially like the easy check in check out procedures, especially knowing there’s always a person to talk to if a problem arises.

Fun, silly one night stay

First we have to say if you're looking for a perfect 5 star hotel this is not for you. This place is over the top, silly and doesn't take itself seriously. Its a tourist attraction, so you have to treat it like one. We personally loved this place. We laughed when nothing on the tv remote worked but the volume. We recommend this place if you can laugh and let your hair down and just embrace how this place is.

Totally awesome!!

It was amazing!! I am so happy I stayed in a room and not my truck. I loved the saloon style doors going to the bathroom and the big wooden shutters that totally blocked out the sun light. At first I didn't mind the graffiti on the door, found it kind of quaint, then it started to be distracting. I loved being able to bring my beer to the room. Overall I thoroughly enjoyed myself and can't wait to do it again!!

This is basically staying at a truck stop. The doors of the rooms don't fully lock. The beds are terrible. The cheap price isn't worth it.

Great stop

Easy to get to from the highway. Only negative was the outside looked a bit shabby so I was worried about the room. Turned out room was really nicely decorated and very clean. Dinner at the hotel’s restaurant was really great with super service and fun things to do inside the restaurant building itself. Highly recommend for singles or families.
