The hotel was grimey and dirty. Felt really gross inside. We stepped out to get cleaning supplies so we can mop the floor and clean the bathroom and shower ourselves. The hotel is rundown and falling apart. Really terrible experience

Like many budget hotels in S Padre mold can be an issue. No bugs, was clean but caulking in bathroom was somewhat nasty in my 1st room. Was moved to a new room and was better. Maid service was great, staff helped any time I had a concern. Parking is tight on big weekends. Hot tub needed cleaning ( started doing that after the big weekend) pool was ok. ( kids don’t care)

Disliked: Amenities
Moldy restrooms, beds had curvature holes in them, not comfortable at all, room smelled, NO HOT water in showers. Dog poop all over sidewalks by doors. Key cards wouldn't work. Hotel attendant had to give us her master key while we stayed there in order to get in and out of our room. Marina view was nice, but that was about the only thing nice about it. Save your $$$ and stay else where. Stairs look to be hazardous, doesn't look safe whatsoever. Sorry 😢

Love to go here just to fish, not a huge fan of staying the weekend because the people get a little too crazy and the parking is TIGHT, so you’ve got to hope the people know how to park. Lowkey wish they charged more to keep some people out, just saying.

Bad Service

Front Desk ladies were HORRIBLE. Charge for every little thing. If you get a condo you still have to pay for EXTRA parking and yet have NO PARKING SPACES. There’s No free breakfast… there’s no hot water… Just simply don’t book here. The rooms do not look like the pictures on the website lmao.
