Front desk person was pleasant. Outside of the property looked good. Brick. Opening Rm 221: was very, very hot. Took an hour for room to cool down. With door closed you can still see outside all around the door. Feels unsafe. The only room lighting is at the basin and in the bathroom. Dim. No lights around the bed. The room smelled very unpleasantly strong of some kind of bleach cleaner. TV very, very small. The bathroom walls are rotted at the bottom from being wet over and over. The shower was dim and dirt stained. Shower door has black spots on it. Didn't get close enough to see if mold or just worn out. I asked if there were vending machines or snacks. I was told to walk to the convenience store at the gas station. When I asked for the ice machine, I was told, "I don't know when or if there's ice. You just have to keep checking." Most if not all people staying at this hotel were construction workers. I would not stay here again. There are only 2 hotels in Hondo. Guess I'll give the other one a try if I need a room in Hondo again.
