Resort style, not private.

We chose to stay in this property as it was resort style. The property has 3 pools and a heated pool. Although everything good on paper, it lacked professionalism. The house cleaning was nothing great to write about. The beach was not private, the pools and amenities were not private, to the point were people who were not staying at the property could use them as well.

Property had a convenient beach access. Pool was also great as it had 2 pools. Only thing I would mention is that Tower B does not have a sign showing its name. For being the first time staying in this location I was not aware of where tower B was until we were able to get directions from a friendly staff member.

I wasn't disappointed with my stay, food and drinks are awesome! Yet The carpet was noticeably dirty, and there were visible signs of humidity and moisture damage on the walls. It made the room feel unclean and uncomfortable. Definitely I expected more.

Building “A” looks good and more modern, building “B” needs some updating. If you’re on the beach and look back to the resort, doesn’t really look appealing.

To be honest, it was my first time coming to south Padre island for a birthday getaway vacation and I have to say from the moment we checked in to our hotel room here at the holiday inn it’s been nothing but a disappointment and dissatisfaction overall. Starting first with the smell of the carpet In the hallway and in our room.. it smelled wet and moldy even when we walked around in our room the carpet felt wet and cold…?! Second when it came to our bathroom the toilet never seemed to have enough water to flush so it was uncomfortable to use it at times when you needed to do #2… third, our bathtub kept flooding everytime we showered from the beach the water would took forever to go down like they never clean the drains or so… feels nasty knowing your just bathing in a flooded bathtub. Fourth, the hotel doesn’t have coffee unless you dine in the morning at the restaurant and their other coffee options are the “Costa” coffee machines which was a waste of time because unfortunately both machines were out of order…. Overall the only good thing I can say is the staff were great and helpful, the location was also great because we had access to the beach and the jetties near by and other cool restaurants and shops. I just wouldn’t ever book here again.. Holiday Inn needs to remodel and come up with better ideas and solutions to there outdated hotel decor and rooms.

We were locked out of our room for a half hour due to the lock failure. The floors were extremely slippery in the rooms. Breakfast was OK. I gave coupons for free drink drinks to the bartender, but I was charged for all drinks.

Check rooms Better before guest enter my 1st room was infested with roaches behind refrigerator and microwave and tv stand. But once addressed staff was able to move me to better room with key fob not working so staff had to let me in room. Just be more vigilant of surroundings of rooms to prevent having to move rooms at 12 o clock at night because roaches were coming out of everywhere.

We had to leave on Thursday morning instead of Saturday. It rained and rain was coming through the air conditioner in our room. The floor was very wet. We feel like we should be compensated for the 2 days we left but because we rented through a third party we would have to contact you. I did but you denied me. Bad experience.
