I should have realized there would be problems when the front desk clerk continually left me to address other problems, answer the phone, book other guests, and retrieve towels for other guests. Finally booked, I went to my room to find that the room had only two working lights out of the 5 in the room. The bed was musty smelling and had a large divot in the middle causing you to roll (literally) to the middle. The dressing area sink area was stained so as to appear that a crime scene may have been worked there. The bathtub was cracked, was missing a handhold, and the water pressure was slightly above that of a kinked water sprinkler. The hot tub, one of the advertised amenities, did not work and was at about 85 degrees. The pool would have been nice if I could have gotten to it without having to wade through the 50-some teenagers camped out there. On the plus side, the restaurant had a fresh and tasty breakfast. It would have been nice to have sufficient seating. (did I mention the 50-some teenagers?)

Although my husband and I have had pleasant experiences at other Days Inn across the U.S. and the world, our experience at THIS Days Inn (2838 South Padre Island Dr) was absolutely disgusting! We should have known from our prior experience with this particular hotel location that our stay would be horrific! The last time we stayed at this Days Inn the room was so humid that all of our clothes, sheets, and towels were damp. However, back then (2006), we did not see any cockroaches! This time we hoped things would be better. However, once again we were extremely disappointed. There were roaches EVERYWHERE...on the floor, on the walls, on the curtains, in the bathroom, even on the beds! After killing about 10 in the first five minutes, we decided to purchase bug spray to deal with the infestation! When we mentioned the problem to one of the employees, he simply shrugged his shoulder...What service! Stay away from this hotel!

I stay at many different type of hotels accross North America and grade High end hotels differently from regular hotels.

My car broke down in Corpus Christi and was towed to Nissan Dealership which is walking distance from the Days Inn.

I explained my situation to the manager and he gave me an outstanding rate. The best part was that the room/hotel was as good as the 3 plus star hotel I stayed in Downtown at half the price.

The bottom-line is that the hotel is very clean, quite, comfortable, and affordable.

My family and I checked into our motel room, only to find wet carpet and furniture, dirty sheets and an exceptional amount of black mold on the ceiling, walls and upholstery. The mold activity in the room had us fearing for our health, and we checked out immediately after we arrived. In addition, neither of the telephones in the room worked, and we were given a double bed, not the king we were told to expect. We were able to find another hotel just down the street that was not only cleaner, but offered lower rates (Comfort Suites). I do not recommend this hotel to anyone.
