My family chose this Days Inn location for our bi-annual family reunion. We felt the staff did the very best they could do given the number of employees at this motel. However, management will need to hire more staff.

The problems:
1. We paid for a group breakfast buffet. My wife and I arrived at the breakfast buffet at 9:00 AM. There were only 2 waitresses seating people. After 10 minutes of waiting we grabbed a running waitress as she was attempting to clean an empty table to seat us (The poor girl ingored us originally because she had so much to do). After being seated, my wife went to the buffet to learn that people were waiting around 15 minutes for eggs, bacon, grits and other assorted foods to be replenished. After, waiting for the cook to bring additional buffet items out the cook comes out and only brings a pan of bacon (while we wait for eggs, grits, biscuits, grits) and told us that she was the only cook in the kitchen on a Saturday.

After waiting for 30 minutes I decided to go across the street to McDonalds, despite the fact that we already paid for this supposed buffet breakfast.

2. The water in the rooms from the faucet is brown. In order for the water to be somewhat clear you must let the faucet run for 2-3 minutes. Still I would be uncomfortable drinking the hotel water. My wife and I went to Walmart t(across the street) to buy drinking water.

3. The toliet stool has a brown tint stain. Not cool.

4. Our mattress cover had a hole in the bed sheet.

5. The front desk checkin was slow. Again, not due to their fault. It is because of not enough employees.

6.When we first checked in to room 210 but the lock didn't work so we checked in room 212 and it was handled smoothly. The front desk staff tried their best to assist us.

7. The iron and refrigerator (small room refrigerator that doesn't fully cool your items)needs to be replaced. Equipment is in dis-repair.

In closing - I would like to say that I normally stay at Holiday Inn Express when traveling. However, because of my experience with this Days Inn location I might not stay at another Days Inn in the future. I am told this hotel has a high reservation rate so it is generating enough of a profit to make the necessary updates .

Unless you are hard-up and don't mind staying in sub-standard motels then welcome!

This hotel was horrible! The room seemed okay to start, however, when we turned the lights on the next morning, it revealed a very nasty pest problem - cockroaches everywhere - including the breakfast bar (which was not as advertised)! Additionally, our dog was infested with fleas. We asked to speak to the management and were refused. Not a recommended stay!

We arruved after 8 PM or we would have left the hotel to find a better
place to spend the nite.
1.The room had not be cleaned for sometime-there was dirt in all the corners and next to the beds.
2.The bedding did not appear to be very clean. The sheets were wrinkled and lose on the bed.
3.The water pipes rattled all night and when turned on they made a banging sound. Not conducive to a restful sleep.
We have traveled to S.Padre Island from our home for the last 4 years
and have never stayed in a hotel that was in such need of a good
cleaning and repair. I would be skeptical about staying in any other
Days Inn.
