“Nice property!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 January 2012

people found this review helpful

We stayed here recently on our way to South Padre for Christmas, and were very impressed. The room was clean, nicely decorated; the staff was very friendly and helpful; the grounds were immaculate. Breakfast was tasty. In fact, we enjoyed it here so much that we changed our travel plans so we could stay here again on our way home.
We'll definitely be back.

“A good hotel experience in Port A”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2011

We stayed here on a Groupon deal in December and will plan on returning. Great little value-priced hotel. Clean! Friendly staff in the lobby. The continental breakfast was fresh and had many choices. The only criticism - a strong, medicinal smell in the room upon our arrival. Somehow, the smell seemed to dissipate quickly. The room had a firm king-sized bed, a couch, and coffee table - it felt like a suite. We did not expect much from this deal, but we were pleasantly surprised!

“This is how to operate a property.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 December 2011

people found this review helpful

I spend about 70 nights a year in hotels and motels throughout the country. This property was among the best I have visited this year, and that includes the brands that charge $150 to $250 a night. Spacious, clean, bright, and everything worked. Staff was friendly, helpful, and service oriented. Breakfast was fine. Sure, there are always things you can find fault with (only the towels and an uncomforable sofa), but, hey, I have those kinds of problems at home. I was happy to see that there were serious efforts to remodel, refurbish, and repair during our off-season visit, because that shows management is getting ready for the busy season and is interested in reinvesting in their property. This is how to operate a property for the long haul.

Thanks for noticing. It has been a busy winter of maintenance. All of the bathtubs and furniture have been refinished, the bathroom chrome has been replaced or polished, the pool has been re-plastered, and we are almost finished brightening all of the rooms with fresh paint. Our staff is staying busy deep cleaning and training to continually improve their customer service skills.

“Nice experience!”

Check-in person very pleasant, changed our room to ground floor due to a mobility problem. Reported a light out when we went to breakfast and it was fixed by the time we finished our breakfast and returned to our room. All areas clean and the biscuits and gravy in the morning was great. Liked the fact breakfast was served til 10:00 so we could sleep in and still enjoy it.

We serve breakfast from 6AM – 10AM daily to accommodate fishermen and vacationers alike. Just ask the night before, and we are always happy to open breakfast at 5AM or earlier.

“over priced motel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 October 2011

person found this review helpful

Booked this place through a bargain website, paid too much for what we got. The towels were thin and discolored. The bathroom had mold on the wall and the shower faucet did not work properly. We did not try the breakfast so can not comment on that. No major problems but just not worth the price. I agree with other reviewer, this place is more in line with a 1.5 to 2 star rating.

Our goal is to provide a clean, friendly, and safe environment, where families can relax comfortably in their rooms and socialize at the pool, game room, or picnic area between trips to the beach or the many great restaurants in town. From your description, we failed to provide you the most basic item -- a clean and well-maintained room. This is not my expectation, and I apologize. Daily, our housekeepers work hard to clean and inspect the rooms, followed by a supervisor who double checks each room before it is released for check-in. If you would be willing to call or email me, I would welcome the chance to learn more about your experience.
