The gal at the front was very nice and helpful. Only complaint, if you want to call it that is very limited eating options. Restaurant and bar were closed. They did have breakfast in the morni g which was pretty good. Most everything in town was closed or closed by 7pm. The room Itself was nice and clean and great for the price

Nice place to stay

We were pleasantly surprised to find this affordable and nice place to stay not far from Fredericksburg, located in Blanco. The service was great, Grace and Britt made great recommendations for places to eat and things to do locally when we weren't in Fredericksburg. Will stay here again! Hot water and A/C worked great!

I traveled with family. I had a good experience with this hotel. First, the staffs are very friendly and helpful. Second, the hotel is quiet. It is a good place for relaxing and enjoying with my family. Also, the location is very convenient. It is 30 mins away from Perdernales State Park, 48 mins from Fredericksburg, 1 hr from Enchanted Rock (15 mins from Frederickburg). Next, the breakfast is tasty and quality. The pool is very nice. The whole Hotel is very clean (bedroom, bathroom, lobby, hallway, elevator…). I would come back in the summer. Overall, it is exceeded my expectation. It worths the money

Took a trip to a State Park nearby and needed a place to crash for the night. Hotel was clean and nice and in a really good area if you like nature. 10/10 would stay again.

Quick trip

Really impressed by this little hideaway hotel! The premium double queen room was very spacious and I love the furniture. We did not eat breakfast but the coffee was good and everything smelled good. Will definitely keep this on our list of places to stay.
