No breakfast. As “free breakfast” i was expecting cereal, waffles, eggs (normal breakfast, nothing out of the ordinary), they only served coffee & toasted sliced bread! Would’ve liked actual breakfast since i had my kids with me, that’s the main thing i was looking for in a hotel, breakfast.

The room we rented was nice. For the first 5 mins. Once we looked around notice that the A/C was leaks all over the floor. So we got moverd from our second floor king kitchenette with a balcony to a double queen ground floor. They are not equal. The pillows are terrible. The corners / baseboards were extremely dirty. A/C vents and filter were dirty. There were hairs in the bed, shower, and on the toilet that were there when arrived. I know that I can be picky as I am a housekeeping manager in Port Aransas. But this place was completely unacceptable from a clean stand point. Oh and there was a roach climbing on the wall as we were settling down for the night. DON'T TAKE THE ELEVATORS THEY ARE SCARY!! I will give housekeeping props on the fridge and microwave being clean. And the glass shower doors looked fantastic. Just remember to wipe your foot prints out housekeeping. A little tweeking on housekeeping and this could be a great place.

The room was full of roaches. The fridge was not cleaned out. There was mildew and food in fridge. This was a suite. Which should have been relaxing. It was a disgusting mess. Do not rent here to get away.

This place is old. No towels in the room, balcony door was broken, dirty, dirty, dirty, coffee machine but no cups. Couch was 100 years old and disgusting. Great place for cash strapped college kids on spring break because you cant hurt anything the place is already a mess. Stay somewhere else.
