For a Texas experience the Big Texan can't be beat - it is unique and fun. We were very happy with our stay at the hotel which was clean and comfortable. It was convenient to be able to walk over to the restaurant for dinner. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful. Close to Palo Duro Canyon for hiking!

So busy with cars off of a very busy freeway and very busy frontage road. I would not recommend bringing your dogs. Room was cute and clean and comfortable the rest was not good. Just kind of a very dirty place outside. Room was clean staff was good. Food was terrible at the restaurant.
