Good enough. Manager was VERY Helpful.

The motel served it's purpose, nothing special about it. Bathroom and room was clean. Obvious wear and tear on the bedding, etc... Be aware that trains run beside the location (twice in the night with Horn). Biggest knock against it is the same for ALL of them in Abilene, too pricey for what they are.

Yuck

The room was not clean. There is a train that runs all hours of the night with the airhord full blast. When they serviced the room they didn't get the dirty towels or leave clean ones.

The rooms weren't cleaned properly, there were cigarette butts strewn around and ashes left in ashtrays. The bed sheets and towels were stained. I wouldn't recommend it.

Mold! Stay away!

The bathroom was exceptionally small and the mat in the tub was filthy and torn up. The mini frig had mold growing in it. The train ran through every 90 minutes or so and blew its horns. It is very clear that the owners do not care about this motel. I will NEVER stay there ever again!

Treated less than

It was horrible! Was charged extra when checking in. The first night we were put in a dirty room. The second day no hot water and toilet was stopped up. Paid 200 dollars for a dive motel.

Dirty, stale cigarette smell, homeless /drugies on facility grounds. Unkempt and broken down rooms. Microwave was molding when asked for new one they gave me a wash cloth and spray cleaner to clean it myself. Towels had holes and were more like rags that stunk of mold. bugs, ants and train right behind the rooms that runs at all hours of the night. Not worth the money or the risk of contracting some nasty disease.

Refund denied

We did not stay at this hotel at all. They were shut down. The owner spoke to my son directly and told him we would get a refund for the stay.
