We loved the area nice and quite , never alot of ppl in line
I love this place I'm still staying here at the moment there clean and good on prices n the owner is very nice n helpful
Never lived at New. Road Inn but many friends have I worked some there years ago as maintenance and grounds keeper It is a safe clean place to stay at for a good price There are motels close that. Costs twice as .much per night to stay at I choose the more reasonable price and I can fix small problems that happen with ease
Always booked but I have noticed that this time that I'm staying here, its a lot cleaner in my room. Less noise and traffic outside in parking lot. Staff is friendly and more helpful. Keep up the good work...
Refrigerators and microwaves in all the rooms, Sherry the manager is awesome, Stacy's pretty good too. The new owners that took over in 2023 and what they've done are amazing! No roaches and no bed bugs when I stayed there for 2 months!! And they only add $10 on the weekly rate if you have a pet! You hear highway noise, but no dangerous or illicit activities going on anymore.
Surprising it is ,not to esthetically pleasing but quiet comfortable and affordable
Semi-rural area with a playground at Alta Vista Park, plus the weekly Treasure City Flea Market.
Curated spots travelers usually pair with a stay in Texas. Distances are rough real-world times, not straight-line.
