“Do not stay here.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 June 2009

About the clientele and ambience: around 8pm this place turns into a prostitute pickup. I may have been the only room that stayed the entire night.

About the hotel itself: rundown old place with disgusting stains on the walls, broken floor tiles, a bare bulb hanging from the ceiling in the bathroom, and a tub that I was afraid to shower in.

The beach is lovely and the water is shallow and warm. Of course you won't get a moment's peace on account of all the hawkers and prostitutes kicking your chair and saying "you want (fill in the blank)?"

I repeat - do not stay here. If I could do it all again, I would also avoid Boca Chica entirely.

Stayed May 2009, travelled as a couple

“Great Location - Hotel needs work”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 May 2009

person found this review helpful

We booked the suite - it was dirty and in poor condition. The location is great - right on the beach, warm water, great swimming, access, jet ski rental near by. The web-site over sells the hotel. There service was slow / non existent. The food was not very good and Boca Chica is a fairly scary place to stay. The security guards did watch over our car.
