“No Frills Stop in Van Horn”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

This is a very basic motel for an overnight stop - there are exterior entrances for the rooms, and external stairs for the second floor rooms – no elevator. The rooms are long and narrow, with not much space to maneuver; ours had one chair. The front lobby has a few tables for the HIE breakfast service; there is no fitness center or pool. Other than the breakfast offering, the only noticeable HIE feature is the curved shower curtain rod!

The motel is located right next to I-10 and the railway line, but fortunately the insulation is good and we were not bothered by noise from either. We did hear shower noises from the adjoining bathroom. The heating and cooling in our room worked well, and quietly. The front desk staff were friendly and efficient. They will provide ear plugs if you ask - in fact there were plugs on the pillows in the room assigned to our traveling partners!

Van Horn has a range of motels, some very inexpensive, and others with more amenities, including fitness centers, indoor pools, and elevators, for not much more than the HIE. The newest along the freeway is the Hampton Inn. If we needed to stop in Van Horn again, we'd review these other offerings first.

Room Tip: Ask for a room on the ground floor if you have any difficulties carrying luggage up stairs, and as f...

“Great Hotel for Long Road Trip”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2012

This is an older Holiday Inn Express. The service is good and the staff try to make it as comfortable as possible for travelers. Since there are not alot of options in Van Horn, TX this hotel is one of the better choices. The bedding and shower is comfortable and they have a breakfast buffet that is adequate for long road trips.

“Clean, comfortable stay for the passing through traveler”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2012

This was a really nice sized hotel with clean, comfortable beds which allowed dogs. It was a nice midway stop between Phoenix and Dallas. The rooms are larger than some of the other cheaper hotels which accept dogs. It was in a very convenient location right off the highway which felt safe. It's very close to the Cattle Company, a very surprisingly delicious steakhouse, in the middle of nowhere. Definitely have dinner there. Breakfast was fine, with fruit, pastries, several buffet type items to choose from and coffee. There's also a coffee maker in the room. They supply ear plugs, however, we just left the bathroom fan on all night and that drowned out any noise and it was a peaceful sleep.

“Never Again”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2012

This hotel is not a typical Holiday Inn Express. There are no elevators & the rooms are small, & noisy, especially if you are on the bottom floor with someone above you. I guess that's what the ear plugs are for. My husband & I both woke up sneezing & with scratchy throats after staying here. This hotel is definitely not worth the price.

“Very solid and clean.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 January 2012

Very reliable place to stay en route elsewhere. I stayed with 2 small kids and felt reasonably safe. Room was very clean and comfortable. I thought it was a bit expensive given that it was in the middle of nowhere but I didn't want to take a chance on a cheap room. Would recommend.
