Good for business or pleasure travelers
The hotel is very convenient to the port, the airport, and local interstates and highways. There are many large corporations in the immediate area, providing quick access for business travelers. Pleasure seekers can enjoy nearby North Padre Island and Selena Museum.

Free, but good, breakfast
The free breakfast provided is a bit more than you might expect from a budget hotel. There are plenty of hot items likes eggs, bacon, and sausage, plus a large selection of continental items like a cereal bar and a varied pastry assortment. In addition, the juice machine has some unusual offerings.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Needs more than simple remodeling
While some of the rooms are being remodeled, this hotel needs a complete renovation. Several items in most rooms are broken or missing. Items like smoke alarms, air conditioning, and lights are not just luxuries, but required needs for hotel stays. You might be surprised to find your room missing these things.
negative:
Not ready for surprise inspections
There are many guests who are surprised to find that their rooms haven't been cleaned prior to arrival. Surprise visits can often lead to rooms that haven't been checked and just aren't ready for residents. You might have to wait to check-in if you don't call ahead with your arrival time.
negative:
Organizational issues
The computer, or booking service, doesn't always match the reception. Guests are often surprised to discover the room isn't ready and won't be for hours, they have been overbooked and don't have a room, or they get a room different from what they requested, smoking instead of nonsmoking, for example. Be sure take copies of all paperwork if booking online.
