This place is remodeled very nicely. We were hauling a trailer and parking was no problem. Family…read moreowned and very nice. Shower pressure was awesome and hotel was super clean.

Another fine example, where you cannot judge a book by its cover…read more Of all the budget, and economy places that I have stayed, I have never seen one where, despite the small size, the room was this nicely done up. Or, having what essentially amounted to open-ended garage for most of the rooms. While the room does have a microwave, and mini fridge, a clock on the microwave read zero call 0:00. So, I had not realized that I drove through two time zones! Only after going out to dinner, and seeing that the place closed in 45 minutes, did I realize something was wrong. I found the bed to be quite comfortable. And the hot water was plentiful. The Wi-Fi is free, and secured. However, in my room, the signal strength was not at maximum. So, it worked fine for text. But, when it came to images, it took a while. Also, there's enough outlets to charge everyone's devices. 8-) If you don't mind having to either eat out for every meal, or being a microwave chef, this small little place would do well for an Extended Stay. The AC ran quietly, and work very well. However, due to the room design, the area where the bed was, cooled off quicker than the rest of the room. However, there could be one problem for some people; if you have a habit of jumping out of bed oh, you may find yourself back in bed, because you bounced off the wall.

I can't say this is an amazing motel, I can't even say it's good motel, but I can say it's…read moregenerally OK. Van Horn is kinda like this random town in the middle of nowhere that is an unfortunate rest-stop for those traveling through a very large Texas. Thankfully, this motel is super cheap ($35 for a night) and perfect for the "I need a place to lay my head on my way to actual civilization", but that's it. Don't expect this to be a Ritz-Carlton or even a Best Western. Midway through the night you'll experience a train screaming by a few times (wear ear-plugs) and there's a sorry excuse for a free breakfast (I recommend going elsewhere), but it fulfills the simple need of being a place to lay your head. Which let's face it, for $35, what more can you expect?! P.S. The AAA discount is actually MORE expensive than their going rate. (Eyeroll, sigh.)

This is definitely not the place to stay. While the price is appealing, initially, you soon find…read moreout why the price is so cheap. The manager is rude and denies any issues, the room is small, the bed was terrible, there were hairs on the bed and towels(and the manager not only refused to replace them, but even denied that the hairs were there). Once you've stomached all of that and gone to sleep, you'll be woken by the train, which shakes the entire building. Pros: price Cons: located next to train(pretty much guaranteed to wake you), HORRIBLE service(I am stressing that for a reason), hairs on everything(towels, bed, sink). Please do yourself a favor and don't stay here.
