We were very happy with our stay at this unassuming motel off the beaten path in Marfa, TX. Short drive into town, facilities were older and very plain from the outside, but well kept and clean. No complaints. The host was so nice! Thanks for a very affordable and convenient stay!

Don’t judge this book by its cover—the outside is unimpressive, but our room was nicely renovated, comfortable, clean, and large. The owners are thoughtful and helpful and genuine. It’s not walking distance to downtown, but Marfa is tiny so nothing is far. I’d stay here again.

Comfy for the Price

Room size was great! We plenty of space. The mattress was a little uncomfortable and the pillows definitely need to be replaced, but for a place to sleep for a couple of nights it wasn't awful.

A nice motel about a mile outside of the small downtown of Marfa. The hotel was very basic, but it was clean and served the purpose. The manager was very nice and efficient both at check in and check out

It is not a fancy place but the bed was comfortable and the room spacious. As a place to crash at night after a day hiking or going around, it is perfect.
