We booked 2 nights in aroom with a kitchenette the week prior and learned within a day of our stay that there was a double booking problem with our room so we were offered another smaller room , no kitchenette but with access the common upper balcony which we enjoyed. Also the original room had no windows as it shared a wall with another building and our new room had lots of windows. Also we were comped one night for the mixup. The bathroom was tiny but overall we liked our room. Also we were right in the middle of town and within easy walking distance of galleries etc. we would consider staying here again should we return to Marfa.
It was a great stay! Perfectly situated in the middle of town. We enjoyed the balcony and easy access. It was quiet and quaint and calm. We would stay there again!
