We arrived at 1am after driving from the Houston Rodeo and after loading all of our stuff in the room, we got locked out because the battery died on the door. My family had to sit on the sidewalk until 330am after I “picked” the lock using a credit card. Surprisingly easy to break into. After we finally got in the maintenance guy shows up so drunk that he couldn’t walk straight. We told him don’t bother and went to sleep. Long story short mgmt was not willing to reimburse us for the inconvenience nor honor a late checkout. They were completely rude and useless. I asked repeatedly to speak to someone in charge and the clerk would not allow it. I asked him to tell his manager about the ordeal and try to work something out but he refused to communicate any of our issues and said it was irrelevant. I got the feeling he was trying to protect his drunk buddy. Plus the rooms were nasty and there was zero hot water. Will never stay here again. Avoid this place like the plague.

We booked our room 30 minutes prior to checking in and were able to get a room quickly. The front desk staff are very friendly. However the condition of the rooms were not great. Odd smell, and some of the outlets don’t work. The bathroom door is extremely hard to open, one of my friends got stuck, and after ten minutes of prying the door open it finally did. The location of the hotel is nice and close to the pier.

The sheets smelled like they were washed with no soap including the towels. I’m not sure if that’s what it was or smoke smell. Whole room smells terrible when we walked in. I never make bad reviews but this place is awful. I’m so glad to be out of there
