Hidden gem!
Pleasantly surprised would be the best way to describe. I tried to find something negative and joked to my husband that the only one I could find would be the Kleenexes are lackluster. Even the one-ply toilet paper was good! And, yes. I always bring a roll with me and I didn’t need to use it. My husband said the shower was great, as well.

Our room was very very uncomfortable. You could build the springs in the bed and it creeped every time you moved. We asked for extra blankets so that we could pad the bottom of the bed. It was so bad that didn’t really help. We did not sleep well.

I was looking forward to staying at the Big Texan Motel after seeing all the previous good reviews, but I ended up being pretty disappointed. First thing I noticed was the decaying steel outside stairs - some very large holes in some places - kind of scary thinking about the stairs you are on collapsing. My room (216) looks MUCH better in the pictures than in real life. Right out of the 70s with rough wood walls, flooring that doesn’t match, tiny TV, saloon swing doors to the bathroom area (kitschy cute but a pain and noisy to have to push through every time) and a child sized toilet (seriously). The floors were dirty (clumps of hair in the bathroom) and in general the space did not feel clean. Worn blanket on the bed and no full length mirror. I don’t feel like I have exceptionally high standards for a motel, but this one is a do not return to on my list.

Surprising Value
I decided to stay here based pin the high rating and price. We were on our way back from Colorado ad regularly stop for the night in Amarillo. Pros: Right off I 40 Clean Quiet Comfortable bed Right at Big Texan Restaurant Cons: No free breakfast Big Texan opens at 8 am for breakfast No other restaurants in walking distance No outlet at desk for computer WiFi not secure With the Cons it was still very good value and will make this my Place to stop from now on.

I really thought we would have had a better experience, but our experience at the Big Texan hotel was awful. We had been looking forward to our stay for weeks. The restaurant was AMAZING. After we hot to our room, we discovered the room was flooded from their leaky toilet and the carpet was wet. We asked for another room, but everything was booked. At 3AM workers were repairing plumbing in the next room. At morning, there's no one to talk to at check out. No discount & no apology....
