What guests think
Reviews of OYO Hotel Alice TX Hwy 281 West describe a heavily worn budget property with significant cleanliness issues and a parking lot many say is riddled with potholes throughout the grounds.
Multiple reviews cite malfunctioning AC, TV and Wi-Fi, as well as doors or locks that do not work properly. Service feedback ranges from friendly staff and early check-ins to rude interactions, closed offices at late hours, and unexpected fees or refusal to honor online rates. A few guests liked the low price, comfortable beds, or spacious rooms, but these notes are not consistent. Expect a very basic, worn stay with substantial trade-offs.

The place is an absolute train wreck I don't know if they're in the middle of remodeling which I hope they sure are because the place has got to be 75 to 80 years old and looks at the park and lots of disaster there's more potholes there than there is clean pavement the room service surprisingly they give you every day the beds are comfortable and the TV works besides that don't expect anything else there's a reason why it's priced the way it is.

As a single dad having run around Texas and the southern U.S. for Vball, Bball, Sftball tourneys, visits for family and friends and truck recoveries, I've stayed at my share of "budget" motels. This place was the worst, and it's not even close. First I'm informed they don't honor hotels.com reservation prices, so they can give me a letter approving a cancellation after which, I NEED to call hotels.com and arrange the refund, or I can pay the difference. Next, I receive a notice to sign stating if I cause problems or am loud and disruptive, I will be evicted with no refund Well it's 11:30pm, so I pay the difference and she hands me a key......and a tv remote. That was the best part of the stay. The room door looked like something akin to a cell door and it opened to the outside?? That was a first. The sheets were stained with I don't even want to know, the unlocked patio door took me 10 minutes to get locked and the TV had that "master hotel menu" across 1/2 the screen and I couldn't get rid of it for the life of me. Plenty of budget places in Alice, Tx, a couple have been shockingly nice and remodeled. THIS place should be call The Last Resort Motel.

This place was a red flag from start to finish. When we drove up to the entrance the parking lot was full of potholes. The lobby was unavailabl, trashed down outside was the first red flag, had to go to literally a room to check-in. As I was checking in I should’ve left when the person told me my name wasn’t popping up in the computer after booking 2 hours before I arrived. Finally after insisting to refresh I popped up on the computer checked in and went to see my room. The room smelled disgusting, was filthy, dirty, trashed, nasty when checking the restroom my kids see roaches all around that was the last string not to mention grasshoppers making noises and I don’t know what other filthy animals I didn’t see. I immediately asked for a refund and the person who checked me agreed to have cancel my stay and returned my money. After contacting Expedia for 3 days straight regarding my refund I was unsuccessful yet. Went back to have them give my some type of proof that states I didn’t stay here and the girl there name Annabelle was rude and was more interested in watching a movie and eating then to help me in any way shape or form she only gave me a sheet that says i checked in and out but nothing that says I did not stay there. DO NOT STAY HERE. This place need to be removed.

Really bad customer service, I drove in from Houston ready to checkin my room and the lady was so rude and disrespectful. She told me I have to wait to 8 am to check in my room even tho I had already paid for the room, it’s ridiculous! Every other hotel had no problem getting me a room at the time it was. Very disappointed

This place was a red flag from start to finish. When we drove up to the entrance the parking lot was full of potholes. The lobby was unavailabl, trashed down outside was the first red flag, had to go to literally a room to check-in. As I was checking in I should’ve left when the person told me my name wasn’t popping up in the computer after booking 2 hours before I arrived. Finally after insisting to refresh I popped up on the computer checked in and went to see my room. The room smelled disgusting, was filthy, dirty, trashed, nasty when checking the restroom my kids see roaches all around that was the last string not to mention grasshoppers making noises and I don’t know what other filthy animals I didn’t see. I immediately asked for a refund and the person who checked me agreed to have cancel my stay and returned my money. After contacting Expedia for 3 days straight regarding my refund I was unsuccessful yet. Went back to have them give my some type of proof that states I didn’t stay here and the girl there name Annabelle was rude and was more interested in watching a movie and eating then to help me in any way shape or form she only gave me a sheet that says i checked in and out but nothing that says I did not stay there. DO NOT STAY HERE. This place need to be removed.

The front desk was not manned when I needed to check out (6:30am) and there is no drop box. There was a sign saying it was only open from 8am-midnight. When I returned at 8, I was fortunate enough to find a cleaning lady who said the front desk clerk didn't arrive until 8:30 normally. A dropbox would solve all that. The property is overall in poor condition. The parking lot has huge potholes. The bathtub was rusty on the bottom. Still, it was an air-conditioned, secure space for the night and inexpensive.

Rat droppings in the bed. Not on top but between the shhets of a made up bed. And property told me it was my responsibility to check. I have to make sure remote, a/c and fridge work as well. Pictures of property are severely misleading. Also over charged from my booking. Stay away
