Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
If I could this place zero stars, I would. The pictures are misleading. The “ocean view” was overshadowed by the ridiculous amount of people crammed into the pool blasting several different types of music on personal speakers while eating, smoking weed and cigarettes at the edge of the pool or on the very narrow walkways just outside the room doors. The room doors were difficult to close and lock. The walls were paper thin and could hear EVERYTHING happening at the pool during the day and all the loud cars and racing motorcycles at night along the Seawall. Could hear the people in the room next to us every time they closed a door. Heard the lock off door handle jiggle in the middle of the night and contemplating leaving right then and there. Bed and pillows were lumpy and towels scratchy. Breakfast and kitchen area was extremely small and dirty. The minimal amount of interaction we had with the polite front desk and cooks at breakfast was the only slightly positive thing I could say. NOT worth the amount we paid for just one night. Mad at myself for even booking this place. Save your money.
Location was fabulous. I was able to park the car and walk to so many places on the beach. Downtown and Moody Gardens were a short drive and the island is easy to navigate.
The staff that served breakfast was super sweet and i give each of them a solid 10.
Only complaints: bed and pillows too soft and squishy. Last night there some folks were playing music loudly and past midnight

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Liked the convenience of the hotel and eating places. The hotel is dated but the rooms are fairly nice.
This property is very quaint. They have amenities that other motels do not offer. There were plenty of pillows and towels. Usually one has to ask for more. The beds were comfortable but I will say for short people a small stool might have come in handy to get on those high beds. lol. I enjoyed the makeup removal packs and extra soap dispensers. That was wonderful.
Breakfast was the same but had a good variety. Scrambled eggs, burritos, pancakes, and waffles were delicious. The cooks were friendly and efficient. I loved the grits! They offered OJ and coffee. Plus there was some fruit and cereal available. The seating is outdoors. Hubby and I preferred eating in our room since it was right next door. That was very convenient since we both have severe arthritis.
The landscaping is very cheerful. Flowers and bushes are planted everywhere.
You got a bang for your buck!
I would love to go back to the same place.
