Clean, fridge clean & didn't freeze our water, coffee & Keurig maker, good seating, ceiling fan that moved the air around, working ac, toiletries, very comfortable bed, tv worked, clean carpet, speciality drapes & breakfast. Nice that no animals are allowed (no fleas in bed or animal yukiness) & didn't have to put up with any type of smoking or loud noises. Great luggage carrier to use. Great lighting inside & out.

Although it was a nice shower for disabled folks, getting out without stable bars on the outside walls was hard (slippery floors). The floor towel was way too small & we had to place hand towels on floors to keep from falling.

The Place was perfect for the Port Aransas firework show! The fireworks were spectacular! We had a front row seat because the fireworks were really close…about 2 blocks away.

I really liked the hotel, but there was no elevator. So, we had one set of stairs to go up, but after a long day at the beach, they felt like mountains! Although, this will not deter me from staying here again. They did give me good news.. they are building on to the hotel and the new section will have a bar on the third floor! Oh, and they said it would have an elevator—-so win-win!

We loved this hotel! The rooms were big and the hotel itself was fresh and clean. The location was great, the city is well set up so we walked a lot. The breakfast wasn't warm but the options were great-I highly recommend.

The beds weren't as comfortable as I would have liked them to be, although they didn't seem to bother my kids or husband :)

I do not have anything negative to say about our stay here. The property and location were great. Clean rooms and facility. The rooms have a ceiling fan which was nice. The beds are very comfortable. The hotel is located just off the ferry, however you do not hear any noise from the ferry. There were places to eat and get live bait for our fishing right across the street as well as down the road a little bit. Staff were all very friendly and helpful if we had any questions. The breakfast was always fresh and offered bagels, cereal, muffins, oatmeal and bread for toast, milk, orange juice, water and of course coffee.

There was nothing we didn’t like about our stay.

This small hotel has a modern bright atmosphere with an exceptional staff. Breakfast is continental but the price is so great, we just grabbed a quick bite and had a late restaurant brunch. Our king suite room was large and clean. The location near the ferry, beach, Charlie’s pasture, and downtown made it so convenient. The only drawback was some noise from upstairs when late arrivals mid night woke us. The staff were helpful in correcting the problem. It is a 2 story with no elevator. We stayed downstairs in a King suite.

Noise from upstairs one night.

TheCLEANEST Hotel!! I typically bring my own sheets when staying somewhere, but this place didn’t require me to use them. The beds are super comfy, the interior is nicely done, it’s very fresh and new. The only bad thing is that there is no elevator. I did request a 1st floor room, and that request was satisfied. I am excited to have found such a great place to stay! Sandy and Darian at the front desk were very helpful. I will be staying again.

No elevator.

I like the space, the large room, the cleaning ladies are so supportive. The hotel is clean and close to everything and the price super affordable.

The hotel manager seemed to have a bad day and was no corteous in responding to questions about adding a new guest and some problems with the internet. I wish he would answer the questions in a more kind tone. He seemed upset and frustrated when answering these two questions that were asked in different times of the same day.

Where do I start?! I can not say enough about this hotel! Typically, beach hotels are full of sand, moldy, mildewy, and dirty in my opinion. Not this hotel! 1. The pictures online are accurate. The hotel is not baiting you. I honestly thought the inside looked better in person. 2. Staff is super friendly!!! Feels like friends. The manager Scott is very helpful and knowledgeable about tourist activities. Ms Tammi is so warm and nurturing. My family just enjoyed her. 3. Hotel is very clean and smells FRESH. 4. Perfect location!!!!! A mile drive to the beach area. You are literally at the intersection to drive onto the Ferry to go to Rockport if you like. You can walk directly across the street to the gas station for various needs or to buy a beach parking pass. The golf cart rental place is next door. And oh BTW, the place to rent fishing or dolphin tours is directly across the street. We loved the dolphin tour. You can also walk across the street to a decent bar and restaurant. 5. The rooms have good sized fridge, microwave, and nice keurig. But from 6-9am daily they have a really nice continental breakfast. And the coffee was great. And a nice sitting area. 6. Two story hotel. Cozy and quaint. Perfect location. We will be back. I honestly did not love the port aransas beach itself. Here in early August the water is HOT and I was not a fan of the tar. I just felt really yucky in that water. But I think port aransas is a fun town and there are lots of other things to do besides the beach. So I definitely plan to come back and when I do, The Place is our place!!

There is nothing not to like

The hotel was really nice as far as you keep , the staff was very friendly and courteous. The location was my favorite part , and the room was really large.

There is no elevator, however, there are only 2 floors. Breakfast is very minimal nothing hot, but did offer different muffins and cereal. The rooms could have been cleaner, but they were ok . The ceiling fans were extremely dusty!

Spacious rooms and atrium, cleanliness, spacious shower, central location and helpful staff.

Our rooms were off the atrium and this was quite noisy. The free breakfast was carbohydrates only with no cold meats, cheeses etc. and the breads were not the freshest.
