Luxe Roadside Gem in a Restored Texaco Station

Oodles of vintage charm, wicked fast Wi-Fi, and a mattress so comfy you won’t want to check out. If you love unexpected little finds and fun vintage details, you’ll feel right at home at our 1940s Texaco station—now converted to a roadside inn. With a 24-hour mart across the street (Coffey Anderson even gave a concert in the parking lot), groceries 5 minutes away, and Tex-Mex close by, our spot is well-edited, design-forward and just off the beaten path without being out of reach.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Very unique. Comfortable. Might be considered excellent IF a lot less noise from the highway and train track. Also, found nothing to make ice nor did we have any kind of bath soap. Might suggest a hook for towel right next to shower.
