"The hotel is very conveniently located if you are spending time in Terlingua and Big Bend. There is plenty of parking and it is next to the gas station. The breakfast buffet is at the gas station and you get $2 off, but it is still around $13. It looked like it was pretty good, but I just wanted something small to eat. The lobby of the hotel has a small store and the back part has games, a pool table and an ice machine. I don't think you can ice between 8 pm and 8 am, which is slightly inconvenient. The room was very clean and smelled like a bleach solution when we got there, unfortunately you are not allowed to check in before 4:00 and after driving a long way that extra hour is a long time. We had to take a nap in our car while we waited for our room to be ready. The mattresses are VERY FIRM. The bathroom is my only real complaint. The toilet was a very slow flusher and made me nervous and the shower was not pleasant at all. We had a choice between HOT water, or COLD water and it either drizzled out of the shower head with no pressure, OR if you tried to adjust it, it sprayed out through these two weird holes in the top of the shower head and straight into the wall, with a force that could have removed the paint from a building. I've never seen a shower head like that and hope to never see another one. I can't imagine what those top holes were actually for. Overall, it was a good stay, better than a tent, but a lot more expensive."
