Stayed one night while traveling to Dallas. Moldy shower ceiling and squeaky swinging door. Anytime someone got up in the middle of the night the swinging door would wake everyone else up

This is such a fun place to stay, especially if you have youngsters. The Restaurant’s location across the parking lot is perfect. It’s pretty good and service is great. Motel Staff is very helpful and the rooms are clean and functional.

Lighting was just right to see box spring matresses that had dog urine on the corners first thing. Room 222. Lady at the front desk was very helpful and apologetic. We were "upgraded" to a renovated room. The mattresses were better. Didnt see urine stains this time. Room was still old, and the bedspreads were tired and had snags throughout. The heater/air conditioner had a high pitched wine that made it difficult to sleep. Rooms get a 1. Staff gets a 5. Steakhouse was great. We will eat here again, but we will definitely not stay at the hotel. Walk 50 more steps and stay at one of the other hotels. You wont regret it.

The property was worn and rundown looking. The inside of the room door was covered in graffiti, which actually seemed to be encouraged by the hotel.

The Big Texan hotel is cheap for a reason

The toilet ran continuously so I had to turn off the valve to not hear it run all night. Also, the water was so high in toilet bowl it hit my testicals, which is a bit unnerving. Being next to the horse hotel brought some rather unpleasant smells. The state of the rooms and property were fairly dilapidated. The one bright spot was the shower- which had excellent pressure & flow.
