Reviews
"Loved the place, it's a great spot for families and groups travelling together to Marfa or through the area. FYI, rooms are all upstairs next to a dining area with enough room for at least 3 to 4 families/groups. Downstairs there's a pool table, foosball, and ping pong table. There's also a great restaurant right across the street. The only down side are the stairs. The hotel doesn't have an elevator so you'll be carrying your bags up n down it as needed. Overall I loved the place!"
"Super cute & unique experience. The restaurant underneath has been converted into a lounge sort of thing for guests with a billiards table and the upstairs is another lounge with games and whatnot free for guests’ use. The room was spacious and clean and the wifi worked great. Nice comfy bed! We stayed in the Military room. The check in process was very easy, and of note despite the hotel being so close to the street you don’t hear traffic. They were very accommodating to us too; we accidentally showed up an hour before check-in because we were still thinking in Mountain Standard Time and still let us check in. The restaurant across the street is a great option - recommend getting there when they open because they’re very understaffed and have limited seating."
"Super cute and quirky! Clean spacious room, great bed, easy self entry, wifi works well.. So much more fun than a big hotel chain."
"The restaurant was closed and turned into a guest-only lounge. The Maps description is old and implies that it's still open for dining. Same deal with the photos of the sign with 'restaurant/eatery' and all the reviews mentioning food - no longer relevant. Unfortunate surprise since this was our go-to eatery when we stayed at the state park. Enjoyed it several times over many years. Can't speak to the quality of the hotel, just wanted to make that prominent to save others the trouble of showing up expecting a nostalgic food stop like we did Edit: downgraded what was an informational 3 star review to 1 star based on the unprofessional reply from the business. If you're gonna take a 3 star review personally, you're gonna have a bad time in the hospitality industry. Some unsolicited advice: if you don't want people from out of town leaving reviews to let others know about the restaurant being closed, update your Google My Business listing to remove mentions of the restaurant and post an update prominently so that's what people see on Maps. People who visit once a year from 8 hours away aren't going to avidly follow your Instagram updates. The first thing you see when you look at the Maps listing is a picture of a big sign that says restaurant/eatery. You see a description that talks about the restaurant and soda fountain. You see reviews talking about the best food options. You don't see mentions that the restaurant is closed until you look at the website or recent reviews. Frankly, no one is checking a restaurant's website for anything but a menu. We showed up from out of town wanting to go to the restaurant and it was closed. We last visited in April 2022. Not a big deal, but I'm sure we arent the only folks in the same boat."
"This place is definitely open. It has been purchased about a year and a half ago and the new owners are working very hard to make it great. It is very clean and quiet and maintains the charm of its history. They have a couple nice common rooms with very nice games, a ping pong table, pool table and Foosball. Upstairs is another common room with board games and a record player with assorted records. The owner is very nice. I believe that they are working to bring the downstairs back to a old soda fountain feel. I wish them success."
