Older type property; bed suitable for regular sized people, not for 6’4” man. Overall clean. Bathroom was perfectly functional. A/C worked well. Front desk lady was very pleasant and helpful; directed me to good eating places.
The place is great considering the location. It was so windy when we came so it was expected to be dusty. There was some stains on the sofa which was fairly new with one of the cabins. Overall it was a great place to stay!

The cabin was very clean. The AC worked very well. The TV had lots of streaming channels.
The kitchen had basics necessary for cooking.
Staff was great....did not steer us wrong with restaurant suggestions and a scenic drive. Motel very basic but didnt have high expectations based on price. No frills. Good location.

The cabin was large and there was plenty of room for 4 people
Good location in Terlingua and easy to reach the park in the mornings. Great view of the night sky. Clean room with full kitchen. Air conditioning is good for night temperatures. It can be too dusty for open windows at night
Our one-bedroom casita was clean and well-kept. There was plenty of room for the three of us. We had a great time exploring the national park and Terlingua. Highly recommend.
Stayed two nights, average about $180 per night. It's expensive, but no refrigerator, no microwave, no table lamp, no shampoo and conditioner, no tissue paper, no ice (you can buy bagged ice). Carpet is old and perhaps not clean, bed sheet is not white, door and windows have gaps to allow bugs to get in. The only positive things are the location is close to the park, and the manager was very nice.
Courteous staff, quiet place, away from others. Peaceful and had a beautiful view. Santa Fe house (33) had a kitchenette as not to rely on eating out after hiking, which we liked. Hot, nice shower. Close, very close to Big Bend, cut down on drive times.
If all you need is a place to sleep, hot water, ac, a place to hang out with friends and an awesome view of the morning/evening/night sky, this is the place. If you want more than that, like a coffee pot, fridge, tv that plays at a decent volume and to be able to flush toilet paper, think otherwise.
The staff was friendly and awesome.
This takes me back several decades in memory. The key to the room was a actual key with a big key chain with the room number handwritten on it.
If it had not been for my friends staying there as well, I may have tried to find another place.
