Categories

Cleanliness
4
Multiple guests reported dirty or poorly maintained areas: explicit mentions of an old/dirty property, a roach in the vanity, smoke smell in a supposedly non-smoking room, and floors/towels needing attention.
Service
9
Service is frequently praised (staff described as amazing, helpful — named staff like Eric and helpful security). There is one serious outlier complaint about a withheld deposit and alleged dishonest behavior, but the majority of reviews highlight very positive, friendly service.
Location
8.5
Several reviewers noted a very convenient location for their needs (e.g., ideal for Formula 1); one mention that there was not much within walking distance, but overall location sentiment is positive.
Room Quality
4.5
Rooms were described as worn and dated (old fixtures, cigarette burns, peeling chrome, creaky tubs), thin walls/noise issues, occasional working/TV or outlet problems; some guests noted beds and linens were clean and comfortable despite the wear.
Amenities
5.5
Mixed signals: positives include a 24-hour pool and breakfast in some reviews; negatives include a leaking coffee machine, faulty TV/outlets, and occasional pest sightings — overall amenities are inconsistent.
Value for Money
3.5
Several guests called the property severely overpriced (especially during events like F1), stating the value did not match price paid; a few noted it was acceptable for a tight budget, but value sentiment is predominantly negative.
Food and Beverage
6.6
Mixed comments: at least one review praised a great breakfast while another noted limited/insufficient breakfast variety; not heavily mentioned otherwise, so slightly above neutral.
Overall Experience
8
Overall sentiment is mixed but leans toward a usable, service-forward stay: staff friendliness and comfortable beds helped many guests, while cleanliness, noise, and value issues detracted. Suitable for short/event stays but not for those seeking high standards.
* This sentiment is summarized by AI based on user reviews.

Not great.
Pros:

The beds were ok comfort.

Cons:

Very difficult to get to from all the traffic. Many homeless people all around the gates. Some of the gates to access the second floor rooms were lock and would not open even with our room key, so it was a maze to find gates that would open. The room was facing the road so there was ALOT of traffic noises. Also, was an outdoor motel not an indoor hotel.

Most expensive motel ever…should have at least been clean
Pros:

The staff was the only positive

Cons:

Very expensive for an old and dirty property - we paid $700 Canadian /night to stay here…mind blown. Even if it is F1 COTA…the value here is only $200/night MAXIMUM! Wash your floors…invest in some towels…make sure the TV works and buy a coffee machine that doesn’t leak. Will not be staying at one of these properties in the future.

Cons:

Felt a little bit insecure at times, luckily you need your key to enter some places of the hotel so that felt safer.

As expected for the price.
Pros:

Location was good.

Cons:

When we got room keys we weren't told how to get to room. We drove around several times and finally got off at lobby to ask how to get to our room. We realized theres a gate and the rooms were inside that area.The lights didnt work for the main room when I tried the lamp it didnt work either.

The staff is dishonest and unaccountable for their behavior because it’s my feeling they pocketed my money and didn’t wa
Cons:

I was asked to leave the property due to having too many guests over. The staff kept my $100 cash deposit even though I asked them if the room was damaged and they said no. Then, they said they would email me within 24 hrs to show me where in the policy it says that they get to keep my deposit. It has been a week and I have not received my deposit back or any emails showing me where I agreed to forfeit my deposit if I was asked to leave because of having too many guests. I filing a complaint with the BBB and the Texas Commissioner.

It got the job done for my tight budget, but I wouldn't bring my wife and kids here.
Pros:

The room was relatively clean--no major complaints. Bed sheets and pillow cases were very clean. Every surface and corner of the floor, maybe not so much, but not gross at all. Everything worked properly.

Cons:

First off this is a Motel, not a Hotel. When you pull your car up to 3 feet from your room door that is outside without an interior hallway, it is a Motel. This hotel looks straight out of an early 1980s commercial. Everything is worn out. Not the mattress fortunately, but the paint, the creaky plastic tub, the cigarette burned desk chair, the chrome is gone from the faucets. Everything worked, but it is all very tired and worn out. My room was RIGHT next to the metal gate going to the pool, and it was loud and slammed all night. The walls are very thin. You hear EVERYTHING. There were some really obnoxious hood rats in the parking lot yelling a lot until 1am. The outlets around the bed and under the desk are so worn out my phone charger would just fall out--I had to prop it up to stay in. Original 1982 vintage outlets for sure, no USB ports. Everything just looks depressing and has 14 coats of old paint and is worn out. But it was cleaned--no hair or trash on anything, and the bed was comfortable, and the window unit worked perfectly.
