There was construction just infront of my room. They started working very early and it was impossible for me to focus on my works. This was my worst hotel experience. I do not recommend to anybody.

Great customer service!

Pennies from Heaven.

Staff (Mel), was very personable and friendly. She called me to confirn my reservation letting me know what time I could check in till. And, she told me of all the places I may be interested in doing, as far as attractions and different types of restaurants we might want to eat at. I recommend this little piece of heaven for those of you who pinch your pennies and want to save on the hotel room. We had more money to play with @ Riverwind Casino!!!!!! They even have a little casino named, Thunderbird. Go figure!!!!!

Spotless room with everything you need for an overnight stay. Who cares if the property is old? It has been exceptionally maintained and everything in the rooms work flawlessly. It’s obvious that the owners take great pride in their establishment. There is no reason to overpay at a corporate chain hotel when you can just stay at TL!

The person who handles check in was very thorough and very helpful. She listened to what I needed and made suggestions for where I might find things here in Norman. She was probably the best check in person I have come across in my travels. The room is clean, quiet and comfortable – I couldn’t ask for anything more.
