My wife and I like old architecture, so we picked the Redlands Hotel. There is plenty to do for a day or two or you can just hold-up in the hotel. The Queen St Grille is close to 5 stars as I get and serve excellent lunches and suppers. The are quaint boutiques and don't miss the antique store in the hotel. It is a close walk to small town shopping and the Train Museum. There is a cute bar in the hotel and really friendly folks to serve. We were there for the Texas Railroad trip it was fun. The rooms were well equipped for a longer stay and very quiet. It is sad to see the old pushed out by the new, but Jean has created the perfect atmosphere to revitalize downtown. And it was good ol' Texas hospitality on ever front.

The sweet lady working the shop side is always helpful and makes a point to acknowledge you, see if she can help you search for anything, and take things up to the counter so you can browse easier.

DO NOT BUY HERE We…read morebought a bed from one of their sales floor employees, trying to support local business. But the sales floor employee promised items were included that were not. Bringing it to the owners attention, they absolved themselves of any responsibility for the employees lies because they said "they were not the person that told the lies and they were not responsible" even though they fired the employee for doing this multiple times. If you hire the employee shouldn't the person who made the decision to hire the unscrupulous sales man take responsibility for their decision in hiring them? I would imagine the owner would want to make it right, but they didn't. This is terrible business practice and we will NEVER be buying here again.

When I walked in it was a whole different world of furniture like you would find at Aaron's or buddy's only this looked like quality stuff. Looking at the prices of things everything seemed very reasonable. I was greeted by friendly staff and it seems to me like it's family owned. They were welcoming, friendly, and down to earth. They finance through a third party which is great if you're on a budget and once approved it's like having the cash in your hands right then and there. They helped me pick out my new piece of furniture and even helped me load it. They noticed a little rain and even got a plastic sheet to put over my things so it wouldn't get ruined. All in all I was very pleased and I am a happy customer with intentions to go back and purchase another quality uniquely styled piece of furniture. Honestly this is what I imagined Texas would be like in a store. Strong, quality, friendly, and big. You just don't really know how great it is until you go.

THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE! I have called corporate office at least twice, spoken to employees, and talked with store supervisors.

I refuse to spend my hard earned money in a store that doesn't think enough of its customers to have a clean, maintained indoor plumbing. Over the past several years, I have loved shopping at Burkes, but as time passed the store has notBreen properly maintained AND managed.
