What guests think

Hico Hills Inn comes across as a basic, older small‑town motel where expectations should match the low price, with a central, generally quiet setting that suits simple overnight needs rather than a polished, amenity‑rich stay. Cleanliness feedback varies widely, with some finding rooms reasonably clean while others reported odors, stains, dust, and occasional insects. Rooms are dated and no‑frills; beds are often comfortable, but noise can carry through thin walls and some fixtures like AC or outlets feel old. Service is commonly friendly and accommodating, though a few guests felt it was indifferent. Expect a functional stay with trade‑offs in age and consistency.

AC doesn’t get the room cold like it should do to using a window unit…gets little uncomfortable when trying sleep at night….i have strong order of Urine in my room…there is never any ice in the ice machine. Vending machine steals your money so don’t use it…takes your dollar bills but will NOT give change back…price is good . They just give you new towels no room cleaning …toilet paper tears your bottom up so bring your own soft toilet paper…area is nice and quiet

Staff very friendly. WIFI worked fine. Room was a bit dirty and in need of refreshment -- paint, deep cleaning. There was neither a smoke detector nor a carbon monoxide detector. Motel used by other guests for long term stays. Couple of BBQ grills just outside our room along with the smell of charcoal lighter. Nice restaurant a block away.

It's a no frills place to sleep and shower at a good price. Everything worked, and the room was clean.

The Hico hotel is what you would expect for a $60 a night hotel. No bugs. Bed was comfortable. Hot water for a shower. Reasonably clean. The furniture was run down. The heat was ok. Overall the stay was ok.

It was about what we expected for the price, an older lodge trying to keep up with the times. The bed was clean and comfortable but the carpet needed cleaning and there was some hair in the bathroom on the sink, commode, tub and floor. A quick wipe down was needed. The A/C, mini fridge, and shower all worked well. Overall, I guess we got what we paid for.

I refused to even brush my teeth here. We slept on top of the comforter for a few hours and got out as soon as we could. Never again. The owner was nice as we checked in late - but this was the most disgusting place I have ever stayed at.

Sorry to say, but the room’s cleanliness was below expectations; accumulated dust on coffee accessories that turned me away from enjoying that beverage. Made me wonder, what else in the room was unsanitary. Staff was courteous and accommodating.

The room smelled like a combination of mildew and cat pee. Furniture was very old and unstable. Luckily we only needed the toom gor a few hours to have a gift exchange, no way i would have slept there.

The room had a horrendous smell. Paint was peeling off the wall in the bathroom. They were kind enough to refund us and we got a room in Stephenville. This property has a tremendous amount of potential. I hope they update it as Hico is growing.

This motel is so far past a remodel that’s it’s astonishing. Beat up, dated, and just overall disgusting. The TV worked I’ll give them that and there was WiFi. I only paid $60 for the night and that is exactly the type of room you get. It was supposed to be non smoking but it did smell as though people smoke in there. It does not feel as thoythe owners wasn’t to make even the slightest attempt to upgrade this place.

For an older motor hotel, this one was in good shape. Clean, comfortable mattress and good water pressure in the shower. Air-conditioning worked great!

The building was very old. Although it was clean, my round toilet had an elongated seat so it was kind of awkward to use. The chairs had stains. The cleaning ladies' supplies were stored outside the doors. The bedding appeared clean and fresh and the carpet appeared clean. Tub, commode and sink were clean. Nice and large refrigerator and microwave inside the room. The sink had no vanity space but a counter was right outside the bathroom door to place toiletries. It was cheap.to sleep there for the night!

This hotel isn't the worst I've stayed at but it's close. None of the appliances were plugged in which is fine except for the refrigerator. In order for one to stay cool it has to stay plugged in. Had we needed to refrigerate anything we would have had to wait for it to cool down. That is if it worked. We didn't try it. The AC unit was in a window above my head. I did finally get it figured out (it was old) and got it turned on but I couldn't get it to turn off this morning. If you need more than a couple outlets you are out of luck. The toilet kept backing up into the tub soooo....Needless to say the $58 I spent on the room was too much. Unfortunately this is the only place in Hico that I found that didn't require climbing steps which is something my husband cannot do. It would have to be a dire emergency for me to stay here again.

This is a small town motel with just regular rooms…nothing fancy. The ppl at the desk are very friendly and are ready to serve even late at night. The rooms have fridges and the showers are good. They are older beds and it’s an older place but well up-kept. I’d would definitely stay here again.

Just a quick 2 day stay to concentrate on our site build. This hotel in town is inexpensive and is working hard to improve an older hotel. It is worth the price to stay in town near everything.
