“I don't think we'll be staying at this motel again”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 October 2009

The sheets were clean was about the only positive thing I can think of. The blanket that was just thrown on top was old and ratty, however. The carpet was that old indoor/outdoor type that had a musty odor. I was compelled to have something on my feet the whole time we were in the room. It appeared to not have been vacuumed prior to our arrival. The small refrigerator was actually HOT inside which I think was because there was a huge chunk of ice on the back wall of it blocking the thermostat. There was dust on the cabinet in which the fridge/microwave was housed. The sink had what looked like tiny dead bugs around the faucet that not surprisingly were still there upon our return the second night of our stay after the maid had supposedly been there. We waited too long to make reservations for parent weekend at our sons school but I know we will not make that mistake again!

“NASTY”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 June 2009
1
person found this review helpful

I would rather sleep in my car, then at this hotel again. The room was dirty, tho I was told they had just cleaned it. There was bugs in the bathtub, and when I went to use a "clean" towel there was a LIVE roach on it. The lady in the office was overly rude. The remote for our room didn't work, and when I asked about it I was told I was in the only room with a remote that couldn't be programmed. Lots of people just hanging out, and some pretty scary, sketchy looking guys doing some pretty sketchy things in the room next to us.
Got to the office 5 mins late for the free breakfast (a bagel, some juice and a banana) and got yelled at, that it was only till 10AM!!

“Eewww!! GROSS!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2008

I had to stay in this hotel with coworkers during the TTU grad, since it's so close to the campus, and our company was trying to save a few $$.
Well all I can say is EWWW!!! We only ended up staying the one night after driving 7 hrs and it being after 12am.
There were things stuck on the wall and ceiling (boggers?)
there were MANY alarming "white spots" in various areas of the room, the fridge smelled like mold, there was hair and residue/ filth on the toliet and hair in the bathtub, there was even filth on the tray with the cups and ice bucket. the place had a smell, our security chain on the door looked as if it had been ripped off the door facing and was only attached by one screw, the room next to it didn't have one at all! We all ended up sleeping fully from head to toe clothed including shoes and slept on top of the bedspread.
Our booking lady got an ear full to say the least! We canceled our booking and stayed elsewhere.
If you are desprate and there's nothing open.... well then bring your own sleeping bag and don't put anything on the floor not even your socks!! otherwise I wouldn't consider this place EVER!

  • Liked — was recommened to a good donut shop..... seriously
  • Disliked — Disgusting room?!

“Motel needs cleaning”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 September 2007

Booked this motel since it was the only hotel available on a Tech game weekend. Motel is close (5-10 minute drive) to the Tech campus. Staff were friendly on checkin and checkout. The carpet and walls in the room were very dirty, including one wall that had some nasty looking brown goo. Couldn't find a trash can in the room, there was no facial tissue, and there was only about a quarter role of toilet paper. Tried wi-fi Internet access and it only worked for about 5 minutes after several attempts.

“value in Lubbock”

2 night weekend stay to visit a niece at University.
Drive-up was an older motel, but room was a pleasant experience - 2 full beds, fridge and microwave, clean and a REAL non smoking room for a change!
The motel is undergoing renovation and this is paying off, the pleasant lobby does an excellent continental breakfast each morning for free.
Would choose to stay again!
