Smith say the resort is getting alternative funding and insists that the place will remain open while this mess is resolved. But the loan might just be the start of the Lajitas money woes.
The Houston Chronicle reports that the resort "is estimated to owe more than 100 creditors between $1 million and $100 million." And some of those creditors include randomly, The Texas Monthly magazine (owed $35,346) and the Golf Channel of Orlando, Fla. (owed $40.000.)
What this means for hotel guests is unclear. The owner vows to run the resort without any interruption and we checked for rooms on July 27 and found a room with a king-sized bed for $175 a night. So it's still open and it looks like room rates aren't that expensive.
But when money gets tight, the first thing to go always seems to be customer service and air-conditioning as this recent review implies.
The service was ok, not great though. Today there was a power cut and we came back to a boiling hot room.
