Hiway Motel — Hotel in Fort Worth

They do not take a check or a card, only cash, and a room for one night costs more than some more reputable places. Also, the majority of the people seem to be full time residents here; which is almost inconceivable considering my room for the night. The first thing I noticed upon entering was the busted door jam. This door has clearly been kicked in more than once and none of the carpentry has been repaired; the splintered wood had instead been painted over several times. I then noticed how large the room was, which was nice except for the lack of furniture. The room included a table, a bed, a dresser, a tube tv, and a refrigerator. There were no chairs, no nightstand, no alarm clock, no coffee pot, no bathroom door...that's right, I said NO BATHROOM DOOR; the pins were still in the hinges but the door was completely missing. The small bathroom was covered in mold and the shower curtain rod was wedged into place with an old bandana and a half used bar of soap. I went back to the office to get a refund and leave but management never came to the door so I decided I might as well get comfortable. Laying in bed with 2 remotes, one for volume and one for programming, I flipped through all 10 channels twice before realizing there was nothing else on and they didn't subscribe to hbo but everything was fine because I checked in pretty late and needed to be up for work fairly early so I laid the remotes on the floor and rolled over to sleep.

HOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNK! AT 4:28 AM, some guy pulled the front of his car next to my window unit AC, laid on his horn, then flashed his lights in the window over and over. He wouldn't stop. I got dressed and walked outside to find the man trying to strategically wedge his car just perfectly enough behind mine so that I would not be able to leave. I found that he was my neighbor for the night and he believed I parked in his parking spot during his absence so he decided he was just going to block everyone in for the morning. We got the issue settled but I spent the next hour and a half writhing in anger over the fact that I could not sleep after such a rude awakening. I also noted that I was the only person who walked outside during the man's tantrum (including management) which led me to the conclusion that such incidences are commonplace in this establishment. I do not recommend this place at all. I will sleep in my car before returning. Oh...almost forgot to tell you they have...

This is a nice place to stay with weekly rates at only $325 at the time of this writing. The owner said he's the best deal in town and I believe him! It's not a swanky place but it serves the purpose of getting rest and relaxation! They don't usually take new pets here but I said I was just passing through and not staying for too long. I have a pup and he might get eaten by the resident pitbull who is friendly to people but not to other dogs. So I brought puppy pads for him so he don't have a close encounter. I love the big fridge they had in the room and the fact that each room is like it's own little house! I wish I could stay longer. It's a good area but too far to walk to all the stores so you will need a car pretty bad here unless you are just going to the bar a few doors down. There is a taco truck in their parking lot that has tacos so good they will give you a ❤️ attack on...

Some want to put a negative reputation on the Highway Motel... But anyone who wants or needs a clean safe place to stay that wants to feel apart of a community then i highly recommend this place hands down. Don't let what you might of heard stop you from coming, that is only if there happens to be an open room to rent... This place stays full and most stay put here for a lengthy amount of time because they know it's safe and the Owners are understanding to one's needs with on sight management, maintenance along with yard man also here to help out in any way possible. I am great full for being able to say I have had this to help lighten up my worries and replace them with peace of mind. Thanks Highway Motel...
