This was my second time staying at the pecan. This is an older motel. but the people are taking great care of the place. It's exceptionally clean for an older motel and well manicured. The outdoors is pretty and well maintained. It's very peaceful and quiet. You cannot get a better deal in Brownsville. If you want to save money or on a budget, I highly recommend this place. It's a nice old motel that is clean, comfortable, and quiet with a nice landscape. and friendly staff. But if you are looking for luxury this is not for you. It's a simple well-maintained motel at an exceptional price. In absolutely loved setting outside in the peace and quiet.

This was my second stay at this property. The first stay was in Dec 2023. We called the hotel directly to book, and found it very strange that the desk clerk would not honor the standard rate advertised on the hotel's own website! She asked for a rate $15-20 higher. Eventually, she advised us to check the prices and book on Expedia, which really seems odd. The property is very old, although it has been updated, and there are new electrical conduits and grounded plugs in the rooms. Also fresh paint and adequate hot water. The beds are very hard, but the sheets and bed coverings are nice and clean. Double rooms (two double beds) are much larger than the single rooms. No amenities, other than soap. Interesting that they put money into a new half-basketball court. The property could really use some trees.

I attempted to check in at 12:30 AM, the door was locked and nobody answered two calls to front desk. I had to go to a different hotel, pay again and waste more time. The next day I called the hotel. The front desk indicated since I didn't show by 12AM, they sent me a code and room number. Which i never received. I need a refund for a room i never used!

I like this place the only problem was trying to get a hold of the property to let them know i was running late they hsve an answer machine that tells you to leave a message and the will get back wiyh you and they never return your call. When i got there the only excuse they gave ne was the owner took the phone and he was on vacation. BAD SERVICE

I reserved the room through Expedia. The lady clerk didn’t seem to have it. I showed her the Expedia confirmation on my phone. She said the room was a different amount but eventually gave me a room key. The next morning I saw on my phone she had billed my card another charge for the room. They never returned my call and message. I cannot figure out on my Expedia app how to complain and get a refund. I never gave the clerk my credit card. Somehow she charged it with only the confirmation number. I am very unhappy.
