What guests think

At South Padre Island Lodge, reviews highlight a tradeoff between budget-friendly rates and a central, beach-near location on one hand, and significant concerns about overall upkeep, facility reliability, and late-night disruptions on the other.

Many reviews cite dirty rooms, mold, insects, stained or damp linens, and musty odors. Guests frequently mention a dirty or nonfunctioning pool and hot tub, plus strict parking rules with towing. Service feels inconsistent: some praise friendly, helpful staff, while others report rude interactions and surprise cash deposits or extra charges. Expect a basic budget stay that favors location and price over polish.

Pool looked dirty (white/ cloudy) and room smelled like mold. No enough towels for size of room. The beds were very comfortable. Also the a/c worked well, the room was always cold enough. I felt like i paid too much for the stay because we didn't use the pool, the mold smell and the issue with the towels.

This hotel is very inconvenient. They overbook rooms and there isn’t any parking available for people who actually are staying there. The Expedia pictures are very inconsistent with what we got upon arrival. The furniture is very rusted in both room & restroom. The little kitchen area was leaking water from somewhere and was smelling horrible. The pool was completely dirty and water was muggy. That pool area needs a lot of work as it has overgrown weeds growing out of the edges of pool. The night life on hotel premises is very unsafe as there seemed to be a lot of people there who weren’t staying there. We also had forgot our room key one night and we asked one of the cleaners if they could help us and she just unlocked it without asking for any ID. Overall don’t stay here it’s not worth it even if it’s cheap.

The place was relatively clean and cheerful. Be incredibly careful with parking! Especially if you have guests. They work a third party towing company that comes through every hour to tow cars. The towing company operators are like sharks hunting for prey. If you don't have a parking pass on your car, they will nab it. And it's like $300 to get it back.

Shower curtain had a poop stain or something on it. My son went to use a towel and it was full of hair. Went to the beach and returned the morning of our departure and the room key wouldn't work. Had to argue with the owner that we hadn't checked out yet and needed to take showers before our departure. Don't stay in this filthy establishment!!!!! Your better off sleeping on the beach or in your car!!!!

We’ve stayed here before without any problems, but this time was really disappointing. The room was dirty—especially the bathroom. We actually had to buy our own cleaning supplies just to clean the toilet and shower. There was a noticeable crack under the door that let in a bunch of mosquitoes, and the AC didn’t seem to be working properly, so the room felt muggy and uncomfortable. I get that you get what you pay for, but this stay was definitely below expectations.

This is the worst hotel I’ve stayed at in many years. There was obvious black mold located in several places in my room (115). There was a small cluster of long black hairs in the fitted sheet. There was coffee but no coffee maker. My key had to be demagnetized multiple times.

Very dirty and smelt like mold in the bathroom there was a yellow liquid stain and blood stain on my sheets and they never came to change the sheets even though they said they would. No service in the hotel sometimes and the wifi doesn’t work. Floors stained our feet black as soon as we walked in.

This hotel looked good in pictures. Checked in left our stuff and went out to enjoy our family time. Got back late and tired That when we walked into the bathroom there was hair on the bath tub, the ceiling had daddy long legs the shower curtain had like what looked mold. In the sink area we saw little ants and baby roaches. Plus they didn’t even take out the hangers that were left behind. On one of the beds the sheets were dirty that I we slept on our towels. We didn’t complain because it was late and the next day we left early to go enjoy SPI. We stayed 2 nights Friday and Saturday. Yet I guess it’s true what they say you get what you paid but even at that we paid about $400.

Please keep looking. I checked reviews on another site that stated this was a good deal, however, if you are wanting clean, no mold and quiet then this is NOT what you are looking for. The staff have all been very nice, but this hotel is very run down, black mold in places and very run down. I’m not sure who is presenting clean, beautiful reviews but it’s not true. Again, the workers, photos and reviews were very nice, the hotel not at all. See a few attached photos. The AC was not working and the sheets/coverette and pillows were damp.

The only positive thing I can say about my stay is that they allowed dogs and it was a last min booking. We were booked in front of the pool and the other guests had their toddles and kids running around banging the windows late at night. The pool had a closing hour but the families stayed past their time.

All appliances worked and no problems at all. The manager told me they don’t tow anymore so that is a big improvement. I am glad the hotel is better than the reviews. Thank you for such a relaxing stay!

I understand they have policies, but they can try and work with the costumer because overall we are the ones keeping them in business and they are taking our money!

Luckily they had my missing item and i was able to retrieve it. The room itself was clean but hair dryer did not work, outlets by the bed also did not work and there was a hole behind the restroom trash. If you are looking for something affordable and want to stay in the middle of SPI I recommend booking here, all stores, restaurants and beach access are less than 5 minutes away

There was an extra charge for one of my children after I had already paid for him. A deposit was mentioned when I was checking in but not when I signed up. And I was going to pay at location but my credit card was charged that morning before arriving there. The kitchenette was very small with no light in place and parts were rusted under the sink. The air conditioner wasn't cooling until I cleaned the filters because they were completely covered in lint.
