    Portal Finding a delicious, healthy restaurant in the…read moreoutback is always an unexpected treat. Good food, good music, great service. Huevos rancheros from their brunch menu, trout perfectly cooked and a Greek salad with fresh greens at dinner. Authentic latte from their Italian espresso machine. Friendly servers who check back often and bring extra salsa on request and who had no problem loaning us two of their mugs to use in our room for morning coffee. When we expressed our appreciation of the musical selections playing on their sound system, the owner explained that it was a random mix of "stations" selected by various employees over the last 16 years! This was our second visit while on a road trip in two successive years. Will we be back again? What do you think?

    My review is only for the Motel portion of the Portal Lodge. My first room was unmade so I…read morerequested an alternate room. Good news, the second room was clean. The downside was the unavoidable decor and atmosphere. If you dial the wayback machine to the 1960's then you can imagine the room. The interior was extremely dark with a small window facing onto a common deck. The curtains were drawn because otherwise any guest walking by could look inside. Hence it was an exceptionally dark room with a small amount of filtered light. Updating the furnishings, painting the inside, etc. would make a huge improvement. Overall, I would have vastly preferred camping. Unfortunately, I didn't think of that ahead of time and had already booked 2 nights at the lodge. After one night I found the lodge too depressing and returned to Tucson. I did not request a refund since it was my mistake and the lodge needs the money for room renovation. The Portal region itself is fantastic. Great hiking, birding, and so on.

    As a traveller, my preferred method is biketouring upon my Doublevision, but often use other means:…read moretrains/trolleys/planes/(motor)vehicles/etc. It was the occasion of a quick family reunion in Los AngelesCA-USA which necessitated the need for a motor vehicle West on I-10 from home inn El PasoTX-USA. Whilst prepping my truck for the 700mile/960km trip, I had knocked the schrader valve needle ajar, causing a whisper of an air leak. My solution was to cap it; no more sound, no more leak. However, my most favorite son was driving when the idiot light came on, alerting him to pull off at the next exit with services. This superior site not only had free air (once we figured out how to operate the nozzle), but he also made the small adjustment to the needle--no more leakage, however minor! The next most important feature was that of nutrition, and server Rayleen in the Subway sandwiches area. Please understand that significance of this super Subway; both my favorite son and his fiancee are vegetarian and Subway is my number one choice of foodstops when biketouring. In fact, Subway is the third photo in my 4th book when I biketoured between El Paso & Houston in 2011! This reflects upon another aspect of this terrific Travel Center: it is at a critical location for when I eventually biketour this route--the shoulder of I-10 is quite useful (and often the only available route) rural road for bicycles transiting the Southern tier of the USA, although some sections (urban) are unacceptable. The most notable unacceptable section is between Texas exit 72 and New Mexico exit 139. However, this gap is extremely well made up for by the "International Ft. Hancock-Las Cruces I-10 Bicycle Bypass" ; which is even more enhanced with your valid passport (greatly facilitates re-entry into the USA) as you pedal through this "Hidden Gem of the World, Crossroads of North America, anchored by El Paso, Cd. Juarez & Las Cruces!" (additional details available at my website: www.juanitohayburg.com) Whatever you do, you can count on excellent vehicle service and needed nutrition at this fantastic Travel Center! It certainly has my "Wheel of Approval!"

    This gas station is full of shit, 2nd time we were there and apparently there dump station is out…read moreof order which is bullshit and I know it, they are just saying that to refuse order which I can see as a lawsuit for the poor service on day they will probably go out of business and I won't feel sorry, like don't have a dump station if it's out of order, cause most of rv people will complain about your shitty service for the dump station, about you take it out then.
