If you're in search of a bargain, this hotel is for you. It is reasonably priced, clean, and in a good location, especially for beach-goers. It is no-frills though, so if you're looking for extra amenities then you should go elsewhere.

This is where we stay the night before a cruise. It’s close and convenient. It’s an older “Motel” that has been semi remodeled repainted whatever you wanna call it. The sheets were clean the floors and sinks and bathrooms were clean and it’s an exceptional right for the night.

6/10 Good

barebone lodging option, good bang for the buck. Convenient location to the ocean and just 20 min walk to cruise terminals (we ended up hailing a uber anyway but definitely walkable for the energetics). To the east of the hotel, there are several wallet-friendly dining options, we enjoyed the little family Italian pizza place, apparently it is also a favorite among the locals.

Great price for a hotel room that close to the beach. Awesome view and beautiful sun rises on the ocean in the mornings. Friendly and helpful staff. Everyone is going to have a different opinion and there are many people that just like to complain about anything but its based on your experience. I had my 2 little girls and we had a great time!

older motel with some ware and tear, however in good repair and cleanliness was not an issue.

10/10 Exceptional

Stayed here for a night before going on a cruise during Lone Star bike week. It was loud around the area at first with all the motorcycles riding up and down the road, but after about 11pm it was silent. The staff was friendly and we had a great view of the beach from our room. Murdoch's is within walking distance as well as Pleasure Pier and other places to go eat, and the cruise terminal is about a five minute drive. Will definitely stay here again if we go back to Texas.

4/10 Fair

Overall our room was clean and serviceable, even though the building was clearly old and needs updating. However, the bed were rock hard and very uncomfortable. Also, there was not hot water for the shower. We will not return due to these two things. The proximity to the beach was great, especially for the price.

For the price it’s not so bad. The room was clean and the beds were comfy. And the view of the beach is awesome. Would gladly come back again.
