Pros (+) Location next to Big Bend National Park
Cons (-) Shower door wouldn't close, allowing water on floor, no knob on the water control in shower, towels were paper thin. The place needs some attention to details.

Pros (+) Proximity to Big Bend National Park was certainly a plus, and El Dorado provided an opportunity to visit with locals who choose to spend time at the restaurant and bar on site.
Cons (-) The amenities were extremely basic, no wifi service was offered, cell service was weak if present at all, and the expense compared to other accommodations offered in nearby towns seemed high. Premium price for meager accommodations. Stay here if you must stay in Terlingua for some reason, otherwise you will find a nicer place up he road a piece.
