Quick easy drive from College Station, the staff was friendly and accommodating. The room had cold, refreshing AC. The room was very clean and had all the basic necessities. It is apparent the owners are doing their best to make upgrades and make the rooms nice. I would definitely stay here again.
I had a hard time finding a room around College Station that wasn’t either ridiculously priced or had complaints about roaches / cleanliness / shady dealings on the lot. I was skeptical of this place given the price but it delivered like a motel charging double. Clean room, very friendly staff, quiet as can be and room didn’t need any updating / repairs. Got a good night's sleep here and can’t say that about most motels I've been to.
Vanguard Motel was fantastic. Sure, it's old-school, but it was super clean, crisp clean sheets, an AC that blows very cold, good internet, good television, everything worked. It even had a microwave and a minifridge to keep my drinks cold. I will definitely be back. Navasota is a small town, and this building is older, but all paint was new, room was incredibly clean, pool was sparkling, and the manager was very nice and personable.
If you stay here be warned it is noisy in the morning. I was on my way to giving this property 5 stars, however there were some issues in the morning. This included someone knocking on my door at 10:03am CST. When I asked the property they went immediately to stating that never happened. No investigation, no looking into it, just stating that no one knocked on your door and you should forget about it. It was blatantly obvious that housekeeping knocked as I could see activity through the peephole. For these reasons I left and will be reviewing my honest opinions.
The stay was great. Although one previous review mentioned lots of road noise, we did not hear any. Everything was in good working order with no complaints at all. After seeing that there were either none or very few rooms available when we booked, only about half the rooms were occupied during our two day stay.
This motel is near college station, so that’s convenient when prices are high or sold out near A&M. The motel is outdated. The WiFi did not work. The tv had a consistent green line across the bottom. There’s no shampoo or conditioner. Expect to run down to the dollar store for toiletries. There’s no iron or ironing board. It seemed overpriced, over $80 a night average. The best thing about it is that you can hop to college station in less than 30 minutes.
I stayed here in March and was pleasantly surprised. Charlie and his wife are so nice and accommodating. I told them that I’ll be staying here every time I come to Navasota which is once a month. I’ve already booked my room for April. They are in a great location from downtown. Rooms are clean, the A/C is cold, and linens are clean.
