Very fast and good service, the room was clean, neat and had lots of amenities. It was just a lil small and you can hear everything from the motorcycles driving by to the people coming in late but the location was great!

I was travelling from corpus area, and a friend got me a room for the night. It was wonderful! I can say I really enjoyed it. Very relaxing, clean, spacious. It had all the basic needs like soaps, towels, tv, WiFi, microwave, coffee maker, fridge etc. The bath tub was large, clean, and good water pressure. I’d most definitely recommend staying there to my friends and family! It’s close to a lot of shops, bars, eats, and gas station.

Here for a night passing through on the Motorcycle Grand Tour of Texas 2023. The bed was comfy and the bathroom just what we needed for a good restover. It's Bandera in the Spring, so there is a lot going on and Main St is loud until the wee hours. When you want to be smack in the middle of everything Bandera has to offer, this is definitely the place for you! We will definitely be back again.

I don't have much experience with this place, but I'll say that the room looked comfortable enough for my friend's mom who was staying there, but I didn't want to get into bed with her, however cold it got outside! She's my friend's mother, ack!

This place is fantastic..it's a hidden getaway that's simple and quaint ..private and peaceful. And best of all, clean... I rented a room for two nights because I just loved it the first nite and didn't want to leave..Sandra was absolutely wonderful to me she represents this business so well she was friendly, accommodating, and made me feel as if we'd known each other for years.. Lyndsay I believe is the owner, and she was incredibly easy to talk to and had us checked in, paid and ready to go to our room within minutes
