"BEDBUGS...We checked in for a 2 night stay. The hall was muggy, the room was musty, the bed frame was dirty, but we stayed because it was rated the best hotel in Hondo and we were heading to the river the next day. We were getting ready for bed and I saw a bedbug on my pillow. We left immediately. No manager was on duty, but I'll be pursuing a refund."
"First, the good: The hotel was very clean, fully renovated. It looks old on the outside, but the inside of our room was all new. New tile, new smart tv, new AC unit, new toilet, new bathroom door, new tub, new paint on all walls. The beds were not new, but were comfortable. The microwave was ok and the mini fridge was also ok. Everything worked fine. The smart tv was a plus, we were able to watch Netflix at night after our long hikes in the Hill Country. The parking lot was very clean, and very quiet. No homeless people or suspicious activity outside. Our stay was good, and the hotel is about 30 minutes from Garner State Park and 45 minutes from Lost Maples, which were our itinerary for this hiking trip.
Now, the bad: there is a railroad just behind the hotel and there is train activity at night, which made it noisy at times. Another thing to consider is that this hotel is in Sabinal, TX, which is a one street old town. There's a gas station, a Burger King, a DQ, a Dollar General, and a local taco place, that's all, there's absolutely nothing else to do or to eat. And last, I need to mention that my son and I got really sick with a cold and nasal congestion because the new AC unit is installed on the upper wall close to the ceiling and blows super cold air straight to our faces, which made us sick. Typically, AC units are installed on the lower wall so it doesn't blow directly on your face. So we are sick now, but the hikes were amazing and the hotel was ok."
"This place was disgusting. They shouldn’t be allowed to have guests stay. Stained carpets, furniture, shower was gross. Toilet was dirty. Bugs! Did I mention bugs??!! It was so bad I left and didn’t go back. Avoid this hotel at all costs."
"This motel was very basic and not particularly appealing in terms of appearance or decor, but it served its purpose. The room was functional, and I had what I needed for my stay. While it could use some updates and wasn't the most inviting place I've stayed, it was adequate for a short visit and provided a place to rest for the night."
