I love to shop. I haven't been on a shopping trip to Laredo since all the news regarding shootings along the border, etc. But, two of my girlfriends and myself decided we would chance it and head down to Laredo this past weekend. We weren't comfortable with crossing the border so just wanted to shop in Laredo (Tejas). In the past we have stayed at Family Gardens and have had great experiences there, but unfortunately they were full. So, asked the clerk if he could recommend another hotel in the area. He suggested Fiesta Inn - Laredo. Made my reservation and warned my friends that I wasn't sure what we may be getting in to. Well, bottom line is that the rooms and grounds were clean, well lighted, and were safe for 3 women traveling alone. Price was reasonable considering the cost of nicer hotels along the border. So, this hotel comes highly recommended! Oh, Take Exit 3B - you won't miss it!

Went to Laredo for tourist trip to Mexico. Hotel is fairly clean. The best part is they have a FREE nightly buffet(chili, chips, and cheese type stuff) with a free keg of beer! The chips and beer were great before the run over the border. Price is cheap at $55 with their disount fiesta rewards membership.
