- "I’m hating myself for posting this review as it may cause the hotel to not have a room available when I want to stay there. The hotel is located in a great spot in Port Isabel within easy walking distance of various restaurants, shops and bars. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Rooms are very clean with super comfortable beds. We had stayed there well on South Padre Island and had to extend for a day. I booked this hotel on a whim based upon its location and it will now be my go to place every time I’m in the area."

When we got there to check in, they made us aware of a few fun things to do within walking distance and made sure to show us where they keep all the brochures for multiple other places to try as well. They called after our stay to make sure everything went well and to make sure I had a good time.
