Ive stayed here a couple of days now honestly it was a great experience! The room was clean, the staff was super super friendly, and everything felt safe and quiet. For the price, it’s definitely worth it. Would totally stay here again
Good checkin experience, nice caring staff, renovated rooms, housekeeping good ! Good prices too. Accessible road
Family run motel which was clean and the staff was very friendly. I would have given it 5 stars but the room had no coffee maker which I believe most hotels/motels all have. I'd recommend management consider either putting a coffee maker in the room (it has a small refrigerator and a microwave) or have coffee available in the office especially since there aren't any places to get coffee nearby. The air conditioner worked great and the shower had plenty of hot water. Great room for the price and the location was very handy for the friends we were visiting.
The owner Andy and his wife are very nice super friendly helpful people. My room was super clean, clean towels, clean sheets, pillow cases, Andy went out of his way to show me 2 different rooms and let me pick which one I wanted. He didn't charge extra or over charge for anything. Ac was ice cold, I highly recommend staying here, great all around experience, thank you Andy and his wife
I found this hotel through Google, looking for something affordable, and I'm so glad I did. This hotel is so clean and comfortable, and I'm very picky. The owners greeted me with pure hospitality and eagerness to fulfill any accommodation or lack thereof. They are still in the process of completing their renovations, but I was still impressed with the room and the amenities. I highly recommend staying here when traveling to Brownsville, TX. The location is very close the downtown where all the shops are, and to the mall and the restaurants and any convenience you may need. Will definitely stay here again when I travel back. Thank you.
Good location, right next to the highway. The man at the front desk gave us free cold water (much appreciated!) And was very polite. Rooms were good and clean, smelled freshly cleaned. Spacious and comfortable beds, specially after a long trip there. We appreciated the service and will be coming back in the future.
Very professional place and they have the best prices. They were very friendly and we would stay there again!
The place is keep clean for its age and the owners are very accommodating of your every need. The price is right, air is cold in rooms, restrooms are clean, beds keep up with zero issues. And a plus is the restaurant next door has some dang good grub.
