They can do better for 80 bucks a night.

The bed was broken. Slept in a leaning mattress. They had renovations for the bathroom, but clearly the front desk is also the cleaning staff. Being near the casino, I'm sure they make enough money to inspect these rooms.

Clean but old and tired looking.

Property is tired. The room was clean, and had been updated a bit. Everything worked (microwave, refrigerator, A/C, etc.), but there were also loose doorknobs, squeaky hinges, etc.

Check in was through a little hole in the glass- couldn’t hear the lady very well and she didn’t speak clear English; plus tried to charge me more , so I had to show her my reservation email. Not a nice facility and could use a good cleaning.

We arrive and the attendant at the front desk was very rude.room was awful and hot. The microwave, refrigerator, air conditioning didn't work. The room smelled musty and the bed linens were dingy and dirty looking. Place was absolutely garbage.

A cheap motel that thinks it's special

Door lock was hard to engage, screen covering bathroom window had a hole in it which was covered with an old paper towel, mattresses under main queen bed were two twin bed mattresses stacked next to each other, no ice bucket, no movie channels on TV, and check-in at the front desk was convoluted and time consuming. Spring for the Super 8 next door.

Ok for a 1night stay

If you're just needing a place to stay for 1 night, this will do, it was clean, had a refrigerator and microwave, and the beds were clean and also 1 exit away from lots of places to eat and only 9min from Winstar.
