• Room was large.
• Bathroom was dirty, sheets did not smell fresh.

“This hotel was ok for the price; it could use some cleaning and updated style.”

• NA.
• The room were not clean and the carpet smelled like mildew.

“The hotel's room was terrible. We will never stay there again. We arrived late in the evening very tired. We checked into room and the shower had hair in it. The lights were deem and the room generally did not look clean, so we asked for another room. We was given room and the shower in this room also had hair in it. The room had a mildew smell either coming from the air conditioning or rug. We complained to the front desk clerk who told us that the cleaning crew went had gone for the day and the manager would be back in the following morning. We went to Wal-Mart to buy our own cleaning products to clean the room and bathroom. We complained to the manager (next day) who told us that the rooms mildew smell may be due to the from the high humidity in South Padre. So she felt that there was nothing else to do but to perhaps have her staff try to clean the carpet. Even after the hotel's attempt to clean the carpet the mildew smell returned later that evening. My mom got a respiratory infection that we strongly believe was caused by the mildew in the room. This was the worst vacation ever.”

• The waffles for breakfast were a special treat.
• The air conditioner could not be regulated and there was no ventilation in the bathroom.

“Overall, I would say that our stay was comfortable. The room was clean and so was the breakfast area. The walk to the beach was flooded and littered with broken glass! The beach was nice and not crowded at all. We could not regulate the air conditioner. It blew constantly if on, and it was too warm with it off. Also, the bathroom had no vent and was very humid. I would say that this hotel was overrated!”

• Very convenient to beach, economical and safe. Just what I was looking for.
• Bed sheets looked like they were designed in the 70's.

“I was looking for an economical place to stay for my daughter and I that was close to the beach and safe. It was just that! A safe in the room, microwave, freezer/fridge, internet, HBO and a table for 4 to have dinner. Great place to stay if youre on a budget like me. Great Value!”

• The room was spacious.
• Shower, toilet, fridge did not work & no parking spaces.

“It smelled like mold, we had a non working fridge, toilet didn't flush, a roach in the restroom (alive) and later found out that we had no hot water. They replaced the fridge, fixed the toilet for the night and told us that the water was fine in some sort of way (the maintenance man didn't speak English very well). The next morning they gave us another room to take showers in. When the shower did finally have warm water, the water pressure was almost none. There was never any parking spaces either. We had to park illegally or somewhere where it was for sure to get hit. Our room was the bigger family room with a sundeck on top. So Friday night, all we heard was chairs moving across the ceiling and our girls had a track meet at 6am the next morning. The people at the front desk were short with me and rude. For future reference, just avoid the Travelodge and stay some where on the south end, closer to everything.”

• It had a private (short) walkway to the beach.
• The beds were too soft and we could not see the ocean.

“The convenience to the beach was excellent. It was too moderately styled for my taste. I should have been more through with my search; it had no restaurant or lounge.”

• The upper deck and it was by the beach.
• The hotel beds and the fact that the key cards didn't work half the time.

“I will not be staying at the Travel Lodge the next time I visit South Padre Island. I didn't enjoy my stay as much as I thought I would. Most of the staff didn't speak English.”

• Great waffles at the free breakfast.
• A little loud on the weekends.

“I stayed here for a week. This is a very ordinary hotel and room. It is nothing fancy. The price is good. Free Wi-Fi and the waffle breakfast are great additions. We bought blueberries and bananas at the grocery store and they let us add them to the waffles.”

• Free energy drinks. Although it was a temporary promotion they dont always offer free energy drinks, we just got lucky.
• The pool was kind of small.

“For the price, it was everything I expected. I would stay there again.”

• Room was clean. Bath Linens nice.
• Were told we had queen beds but didn't. Bed and linens awful!

“We were told we had queen beds but they weren't. The bed linens were old and should have been thrown away. Bath was clean, bath linens were clean. Pool was cleaned each day but the tables were sticky.”

• The microwave and mini fridge came in very handy.
• Dirty feel to the bathroom and shower. The shower head was broken and had very little stream.

• Desk clerk was very friendly, experienced.
• Other patrons consume alcohol on porches.

“Overall satisfactory and priced about right for the area - desk clerk surprised me, witnessed her handle an angry patron with calming ease and she even remembered which two rooms we were in when we checked out the next day. Impressive for this area.”

• Hot tub.
• Ran out of cream cheese for bagels at breakfast.

“Some rust in bathroom, front door handle needed fixing, and the TV lacked all the cable channels at first. .”

• Located at South Padre.
• Staff spoke mostly Spanish, beach access poor, etc.

“The hotel is clean and basic. Getting to the beach is like walking the gang plank. If someone is coming from the other direction, you have to turn side ways. It's a fine hotel for a boys trip to the beach, but hardly makes the grade for the entire family.”

• Location.
• My room had not been cleaned. Not vacuumed. Dirty linens. Dirty sink.

“The day manager's attempt to embarrass me in front of other patrons and her attempt to intimidate me by making it seem as if I were lying about the room's dirtiness was totally unnecessary. I have stayed at this hotel before and had a great experience and I expected the same this time. However, it was not meant to be. I'm hoping this was just an isolated incident and not the norm.”
