• I liked the style of the hotel. Being a revamped hospital is very unique.
• The work out room had no televisions.

“This motel is located right across from the Alamo in San Antonio. It is very convenient to get to the River walk and stores in the area.”

• Breakfast was great.
• After five days our sheets were never changed.

“The atmosphere of this hotel during February is definitely for the older crowd. It was evident that they cater specifically to the 'Winter Texans'. The staff was very friendly and the hotel was nice for a winter getaway.”

• Awesome staff, location and security.
• Thought room could be larger.

“Went over spring break with teenagers. Great security and just five minutes from restaurants and shopping. Will definitely return next year.”

• Easy access to the beach. There was a great selection of food for breakfast. The rooms were huge and very clean.
• I had to walk about 120 yards or so because the parking only in front of the hotel.

“I had a great night of rest and relaxation on Valentines Day with my spouse. There were no problems with anything in the hotel.”

• North End of Beach, very quiet and away from most things, exactly what I was looking for.
• The staff was a bit gruff and seemed like they didn't care about me or my being there. Actually seemed like I was a nuisance.

“I went to South Padre in January, so my review may be different than most visitors. I enjoyed my stay at the LaQuinta overall, as I was looking for a nice quite beach location. The hotel is at the far end of the strip and away from most things, which for me, was perfect. Balcony view of the Gulf was nice, and it's right on the beach. The front desk staff was a bit gruff, and seemed like I was an inconvenience, didn't appreciate that. Room was clean, hotel was clean, and pool was nice. Overall, worth the price for me, at this time of year.”

• Whirlpool in my room.
• The hotel did not have enough parking for its occupants.

“We stayed of one night. We missed happy hour. The walk to the beach was minimal. The pool was on the way to the pool. That was nice!”

• I liked the appearance and I especially liked the location right on the beach, our room was clean and spacious and the hotel was well taken care of.
• I really can't think of anything I did not like.

“Our first impression was good, the outside appearance was nice as was the lobby area. I was impressed with how large the dining area was for the continental breakfast and with the computer room. The pool and outside area was very nice. We love the beach and there were plenty of chairs and lounges to sit aside and enjoy.”

• Nice pool area and view of ocean.
• Parking is a hassle.

“Great view, clean new rooms, nice area, good location if you want to get away from the noise. Wish they had shade covered parking or closer to the rooms. Good overall experience.”

• The view of the ocean was great.
• The parking was inconvenient because there was not parking on the sides of the hotel.

“Other than the awkward parking situation, the hotel was pleasant and the location was worth the price because of the view of the beach from the room.”

• Location.
• Smell - dank, musty, like cleaning solution.

“Good location, right on beach. Courteous staff. Musty smell. Small pool. Good complimentary breakfast. Happy hour was a nice end to day on beach before cleaning up and going to eat. Parking was horrible.”

• It was right on the beach.
• The parking lot was poor with more cars than parking spaces.

“It was clean but our room had a ceiling fan that was falling out of ceiling and the cabinet which contained fridge and microwave had no knobs so it was impossible to get into. The couch in room was like sitting in a hole and the pull-out bed in couch was worse than sleeping on a bed of rocks! We've been to several hotels on the island and we will definitely never stay at this one again!”

• Great location, easy access to beach, nice pool and hot tub. Easily accessible outdoor restrooms and showers.
• Can be a little overcrowded during holidays, would not recommend during Easter break or spring break.

“We like to stay at this hotel with our four children because of the easy access to the beach from the pool area. It has a nice hot tub, nice pool for young children and a covered pavilion. Also has a great patio area that overlooks the beach. There are clean outdoor restrooms behind the snack bar which is a huge plus with young children. The rooms are adequately clean and comfortable with a small balcony, but no ocean view. Coffee maker, microwave and minifridge are provided. I've stayed in many hotels at SPI and while this is not the prettiest, it has the most conveniences if you are traveling with young children.”

• Convenience to the beach, restaurants and attractions.
• To many children running around unsupervised. needed business area, clearly states must be 17+ couldn't use because was always full of children.

“Free happy hour and snack service a bit snappy, left room at 5:45 to go down 3 floors. Elevator was not working, wouldn't close to operate. ( turned out to be a constant problem throughout our stay) When we finally decided to take the stairs and walk out to pool/snack area we were rudely told it is now 6:03, go away snack time is over.”

• Super nice room with balcony.
• A little tight on parking, but it was spring break.

“Very pleasant, efficient staff. They gave us the royal treatment from the time we walked in. Large oversized room, free computer room, wonderful continental breakfast. Wonderful beach area, with snack bar. A great place to take your family.”

• Big beds.
• People were not friendly.

“I was very surprised to find out in order to stay at the hotel that I had already booked online, that I would need to pay an additional $20.00, also the room rate was less than what I was charged.”

• Pool was nice.
• Staff wasn't very friendly, long wait to check in.

“The free continental breakfast is a plus with the variety of cereals, waffles, pastries, and bagels and fruit. The pool area is nice for the children. The downside is that it doesn't have room service and the beds aren't as comfortable as most.”
