Bonanza Motel Vega

This is the best welcome I have ever had in Texas. While scary from the outside, the owners are some of the loveliest people you will ever meet. The rooms are very clean and reminds me of the early 2000s. They are cute, fun, and had a great time! Very cool!

Comfortable bed, updated bathroom, overall pleasantly surprised, compared to other I-40 budget stays. thank you 😊

The outside plane but the inside pleasant surprise.

Bonanza vega Texas stay When traveling I-40 through Oklahoma Texas New Mexico I try to stay motels that are far off I-40 due to noise and train. I like staying here because it's really quiet away from traffic. Also good selection of pillows. Would prefer you still have little soap bars and not the liquid stuff from a dispenser.

I have reviewed hundreds of hotels and Motels and rarley if ever give a 1 star, but this motel deserves a 1 star, if only because 0 is not an option. We arrived late in the evening having reserved a room prior. The rooms form a U shape with parking in the middle. Parked in the middle was a large truck with its engine throbbing away loudly. On check in we asked what was with the noisy truck.... apparently the driver was a guest and the engine was running the chiller. We wouldnt hear the awfull din in the rooms we were told and the truck would soon be gone. These were lies, and lies delivered with a smile (which is just insulting). If we hadn't been incredibly tired we would have simplly left. The engine noise was as irritating in the room as it was outside. The truck droned on, making it difficult to sleep, until it left at 3am ! Who on earth runs a Motel like that ? Who lets a trucker leave a truck with its engine running outside sleeping accomodation for hours ? We tried to drown out the noise with the TV, which had no digital channels and only 1 analog one. One channel ! The room was dusty (see picture). To be fair wifi was ok and there was plenty of hot water.... which is handy for passing the time online because you can't sleep due to the engine noise and you get up early for a shower so you can leave ahead of time. As stated I have reviewed hundreds of hotels, but this stands out not because of high expectations not being met because of restrictions in fascilities or staffing or some reasonable failing.... but because of a deliberate total lack of concern for paying guests. (...and the crappy TV ....and lack of clenliness). For your own sanity avoid this place. (Unless you have a loud truck andyou need to keep the engine running all night in which case this is possibly an ideal location).

Loud engine noise all night - dirty room - AWFULL. There was a refrigerated truck sat outside with its engine running - motel owner said it would be gone soon and you wouldn’t hear it in your room. Huge lies. Loud engine till 3am ! Room dirty - sticky surfaces and dusty. TV analog only with only 1 channel ! Worst motel (or hotel of any kind) I have stayed in. If I wasn’t so tired I would have left after 20 mins. Disgraceful. WiFi was ok. That’s about it.
