Liked: Staff & service
This is a basic road-side motel. No frills. It's most compelling feature is that it is right across I-35 from UT, which I was visiting with my daughter. The rooms look and smell old, and the ice machine never worked. But, the staff were friendly and helpful. I arrived with a broken foot, and they shuffled things to give me a room on the first floor, which I appreciated. So, it's good for what it is. Just don't expect the Ritz.

There was mold/biogrowth throughout the unit. The light shield of the lamp had mold on the back. The restroom has it throughout. Also the door lock was very loose. The pool dirty. Front desk customer service not to par. Housekeeping was very nice.

fair price for short stay and location, our checkin was good, and staff at that time, 4ish, was friendly and helpful... the ice machine was outoforder at our end of hotel, and in the evening I went to office to ask for ice, and another man at reception desk was rude, abrupt and acted like I was stupid for not knowing there was an ice machine in the corner away from the office, but all in all, our stay was good and close to softball field event, 6 minutes away.
