We have stayed here multiple times and the rooms have always been clean. We feel safe the owners watch closely who come and go. Close to border and one of our favorite taco spots. Parking is gated at night.

This is a wonderful motel/ hotel. The only downside is the attitude of the owners... they are really nice people but lack communication skills. Place is exceptionally clean! Security is pretty good as well! The best place for the price range.
