Liked: Amenities
Checking in was easy and pleasant. Because we’ve never been to this small and relatively remote town, I loved that the hotelier called me to touch base, answer questions, and get my approximate ETA. It was reassuring to know someone was expecting me after a long drive. The room was very clean and comfortable. The heater worked quickly and the clear blue sky and adobe buildings out my window were a welcome sight the next morning!

Affordable and very clean and comfortable
The Riatta is a comfortable and affordable option in expensive Marfa, TX. It was quite clean and suited our needs just fine. We also enjoyed the good blackout shade over the window as we slept in quite late the first morning we were there after an evening at the McDonald Observatory.

Everything was very good here. Clean, ample space, staff was very professional and friendly. We had problems with the refrigerator and we called the front desk. The person from the front desk came immediately and exchanged it for a new one. Very very efficient! Next time that we're passing through here, we will certainly stay here again!

The Riata Inn is a really nice place to stay while you're visiting Marfa, Balmorhea, Terlingua, Presidio, and the Big Bend area. The rooms are spacious, immaculately clean, and equipped with a large flat-screen TV and all the Direct TV channels. There's a large walk-in shower, microwave, and refrigerator in the room, and the air conditioning is excellent. You park your car right in front of your room, and downtown Marfa is just a minute away. You'll find all kinds of coffee, soft drinks, and treats in the office, and Gene, your host, will do everything possible to make your stay as memorable as it is enjoyable. All in all, the Riata Inn is a terrific, reasonably priced place to stay in Marfa. You'll be happy you chose to stay here!

Clean and one of the least expensive places in Marfa. Big room with plenty of space. Only $20 pet fee for my dog. Front desk staff were friendly and gave a great dinner recommendation. Really clean inside rooms, but the side of the sidewalk outside has cigarette bits and old band aides that really need to be cleaned up. I would stay here again.
