This was an easy stay for us. The staff is friendly and helpful. It was close to everything we wanted to do.Easy parking and it was quiet. I can highly recommend. Part of the Inn is under construction, do to a fire they had. Don't let that stop you from staying there. We will definitely stay there again. Thank you.

Thank you for the feedback, Scott. The fire is a definite thorn in my side as well. I do apologize and hope it is down soon. We do list this as a continental breakfast, as it does not include any hot items since we do not have an actual kitchen to cook in. We do offer hard-boiled eggs, danishes, muffins, toast, 4 types of cereal, fruit salad, yogurt, instant oatmeal, along with coffee, juice, and milk.

I didn’t like the fact that my bill was $107 plus $23 tax when tax was supposed to be included. Then they added a $50 charge (hold) in case room was damaged. All surprise/hidden fees. Supposedly returned in 5 business days. The room had only one wash cloth but we had 4 people. Had to change rooms due to odor. When we called they promised free shuttle to port. After checking in they told us they stopped the shuttle service in April. We had no transportation so couldn’t walk with luggage to another hotel. $20 per person to use a local shuttle service. These people offered no discount for their inconvenience to us. Will never stay again. There was a fire in the main building in November, the roof and other rooms burned out. It looks terrible on the outside. No work since 2022! The attendant at front desk gave me a number to call to complain about cancelled shuttle service. No one answered during working hours. Had to leave a voicemail. I don’t expect a return call. Now have to spend extra money on an Uber to get to the doc for our cruise tomorrow! Found dead rat by golf course

This property was close to my event, Ironman 70.3 Texas. Walking distance to the start. Also, the hotel is within walking distance of restaurants and parks.
