Good choice for a solo stay
Rated highly despite the reasonable rate, so I took a chance. Perfectly located on Munras near the 101.
Quiet, everything worked perfectly. Congenial host.
Would repeat!

Affordable and Clean
We have stayed at this hotel MANY times. The rooms are clean and remodeled. Coffee in the room, no breakfast offered, across the street from a large Shopping Mall with lots of food options, free parking. Rates really fluctuate depending on the season, no pool.

Great for family!
Bathroom was small but it fit my family of 6 comfortably in room 101. The place looks like it was newly renovated and it was budget friendly.

It’s my mini vacation walking distance to the Mall
Padre Oaks always accommodates my request, very nice staff and owners. Housekeeping very clean and parking space close by your room if they can accommodate your requests.
