I stayed at the Ranch House Motel while in Texas for Outlaws and Legends Festival. The staff was hospitable and the room was clean. I appreciate the free breakfast that was offered too. I would stay there again if needed.

Easy access on/off from freeway, extraordinary option to have a free seated breakfast at their restaurant with non-powered eggs, especially for the reasonable cost of their stay. The only thing I did not like was that the mattress was firm for my liking but that's an individual's choice and opinion.

Cleanliness is an issue. All the bedding was pretty bad, cigarette burns and such. Otherwise a great stay. Loved the complimentary breakfast they give to hotel guests. Restaurant quality food, and the staff was super polite and helpful. I feel that better management could make this place shine.

This is one of the last roadside motels that still has a cook-to-ofer free breakfast. It is right beside two fantastic BBQ/ Steak places. Reception was super nice and the room was very clean. You can tell this property is older, but it was still a very nice stay.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The made to order breakfast is a big plus. The property is very outdated and in need of major repairs and upgrades. The lobby smells like old stale cigarettes. It’s right off the highway and accessible to restaurants and local businesses.

Throwback to the 60’s

This is a vintage 1960s motel that while still has the vintage decor and style was clean and neat. The breakfast was provided in the diner by ordering off the menu. I had coffee, eggs to order, toast and crispy bacon. My wife’s biscuits and gravy were delicious. I love that this place is still operating in an old school way. Not fancy. Not for Everyone but a pleasure for us.

Would not stay again

The rooms smelled musty and dirty. We got bed bugs. I didnt even have my daughter sleep in the room for that reason alone. She stayed with my mom. Breakfast was just okay. Not anything to get excited over. The restaurants service was nice though. Outside of that, not worth staying again

Older motor hotel but decently remodeled. Television didn't turn on and coffee pot didn't work. Door could use a new bottom seal, I assume if sunlight can come through, so could a scorpion or something. I just needed a place to sleep for the night so it worked out just fine. Quiet property.

Room was tolerable. One of the hand towels was stained a lot. Bathroom fan rattled quite a bit. Shower curtain had hairs on it, one about a foot long, we both have short hairs. Staff were friendly and helpful. Free breakfast was great.

An older motel seemingly locally owned and run. My experience was not terrible but not great either. Check-in was quick and the agent on duty was very friendly. A strong musty acrid smell greeted me when I opened the door to my room. Possibly an artifact of the many years that smoking was allowed in this non-smoking room. Night table lamp was missing a switch, there was a hole in the wall above the TV with protruding wiring, and the handle on the bathroom sink came off in my hand. On the other hand, the shower was hot, the AC blew wonderfully cold air, there are restaurants and other necessities nearby, and the room was acceptably clean. The bed was comfortable enough for me. There is a free cook prepared breakfast offered but I passed as I left very early the following morning. This place does have potential. It’s got a vintage vibe that could be the foundation for something better. Overall, I was most put off by the smell and that’s something that could be easily addressed.

I was really disappointed. No soap or shampoo. One towel, 4 hand towels, no wash clothes and no bath mat. Found a long black hair in one of the hand towels. There was a desk but no chair. Holes in the wall were patched but not painted. The bed was comfortable and the A/C was cool and quiet.
