Clean Comfort

While still a “budget” motel, this may have been the cleanest room in which I’ve ever stayed. The room doesn’t have that “homey” of decor, but this place is spotless, and not an insect in sight!

Long weekend in South Padre.

Nice location . Very clean. Exceptional value. The walls are a little thin. You could hear the neighbors television. Also the towels were pretty cheap. Overall we were very happy and would stay there again.
