ROACHES EVERYWHERE!!!We chose Country Inn & Suites based on the reviews, but unfortunately, our stay was very unpleasant The rooms, at a glance, seem okay However, shortly after checking in, we saw roaches crawling on the walls and even in the shower

The vents in the bathroom were rusty and nasty looking The blanket was discolored, ripped, and ragged I was scared to sleep on the pillows because of the roaches I felt the need to sanitize the pillows before sleeping on them The dryer cost was $250, and I only had $200 in change I went to the front desk and let the male attendant know there were roaches in my room, and I needed to purchase two bottles of water to get cash back to use the dryer for my pillows He showed no care for my concerns; he did not even apologize Instead, he charged me a $100 cashback fee to get only a $100 cash back ($200 for $100 in change)That was not all; the AC in the room did not work efficiently, would not cool the room, and was deafening compared to any other AC unit In addition, when the occupants upstairs used the bathroom during the night, the sound of the water was bothersome I am lucky that our stay was only two nights I hope management looks into this matter and trains the staff to be more courteous

Fina McFly

Great price compared to others in the area We have stayed here at least 4 times now Every time has been great

Clean, well kept, great location Love the King beds in the double rooms Spacious Tile floor, so no weird carpet smells Everything you need at a good price No microwave, coffee maker, or hair dryer, but those are extras we don’t use anyway There is a fridge, which is essential We have not visited the pool yet but hopefully on our next stay We have already recommended it to family

Christine Conde

I don’t ever comment about things like this but, this room was VERY NICE It even smelled nice, not musty or hotel like smell, if that makes sense The bed was comfortable, it was very roomy (we had a room with a king size bed), not claustrophobic

There was a little table for eating, a small sofa with coffee table the bed with an awesome back board It was even nice enough to just sit and relax if you didn’t want to go anywhere The gentleman at the front who checked us in was super nice and friendly The only downsides are (and it’s not really all that major): There isn’t a refrigerator, coffee maker, iron/ironing board or hair dryer (usual things I’ve seen in other hotel rooms And there is no continental breakfast or beverage station in the lobby That’s why I gave it 4 stars But there are convenient stores and restaurants close by and the price was pretty reasonable I would definitely stay here again!

Emily Cartagena

Amazing service!! The room is spotless I seriously couldn’t find any spots It’s super clean throughout!!! The room is so spacious with two king size beds; very comfortable mattresses with clean white sheets! The customer service is among the best we’ve experienced

Highly recommend and will always return to this as it exceeded our expectations

Great room, nice and clean! The room also has a microwave and an iron perfect if you’re going away for businessKind and helpful staff, it has a little communal fitness areaUnfortunately the wifi did cut out sometimes! Otherwise it would have been 5 stars!

Melissa Dubuque

This hotel was not clean, the room smelled like mold On the second night in the room is when the roaches made their appearance The hallway had trash in them when we arrived and was still there in the morning

The property was not clean on the outside, needs some maintenance We also reserved a King room/ two double per the website and email Once we got here we were given a handicap room where it was nearly impossible for us to take a proper shower

Matt Frost

It seems pretty dirty Not sure how thorough the cleaning is I’m sure they’re spraying down everywhere, but the drawer handles and fixtures have rust spots all over them

There’s something nasty on the side of the chair The outlet doesn’t work at the night stand Nasty bath, rust, mold, painted over tub very low water pressure that is very highly chlorinated Bring a candle or air freshener, this room has a nasty musty smell The elevator is sketch, bounces up and down when going to the second and third floor; It smells like it was cleaned with a dirty rag The window treatments are torn When housekeeping took the dirty towels, I got a new towel but no wash cloth The carpets are dirty The bed is uncomfortable There is a lack of parking spaces The TV is the equivalent size of a computer monitor The wifi is unstable, getting kicked off constantly Customer service is good but the facility is ran down I would have expected more from the Holiday Inn brand

I was a long term guest in this superb hotel The hotel was always maintained to a high standard and the cleaning ladies were excellent The kitchen staff was very friendly and happy to help with anything i requested

The front staff was delightful and always greeted me Wendy was especially kind and went above and beyond helping me with anything from unloading my groceries to making me a new key card when I misplaced mine As a disabled veteran, I truly appreciate the help and graciousness provided from all of the staff members I would recommend this hotel to my friends and family before any other in the area

Laney Hawes

Stayed here with our family of 6 for a beach vacation We couldn’t find reasonable lodging in south padre, so we decided to stay further inland (50 minute drive) We stayed for two nights and LOVED this hotel

We got a suite- with 2 beds & a couch bed The rooms were so clean The entire hotel was clean And quiet and welcoming The free breakfast was delicious The staff was helpful and kind We will be back! Perfect for families

Rico Burgos

The worst Homeward suites I ever stayed at!!! Costumer service is bad! No towels!! My room never got cleaned after I told them I need my room cleaned! I payed 200 plus a night and had the worst experience here at this location!! I came here for a funeral and had to call front office multiple times to get towels just so me and my family can shower and get dressed!! Smh then I get back to room later that night and room wasn’t cleaned like they promised it was gonna get cleaned! The worst experience ever! I should have just got a $75 room like other family members because they didn’t have one problem!!!!

Pedro Rodriguez

I was very impressed on the hospitality and great customer service that Joe(the night attendant) delivered to me and my family You don’t see that trait in people anymore I have traveled to many states and have stayed at several hotels but never have I felt treated with such compassion at a hotel

My night was going awful and had been traveling over 28hrs from North Carolina Everywhere else I called I felt rush off the phone, had no vacancy, and one guy even told me he couldn’t hold my reservation unless I paid double the regular price So as I was driving looking for a hotel for me and my family to stay in, i stumble into the Lone Star Inn There I was treated like a human being and not just a number I recommend my fellow travelers to stay here It’s clean, comfortable, and staff is very courteous Place felt safe which is good when you are traveling with wife and kidsThanks Joe for making my experience one I will always remember

AMY HOOKER

The ABSOLUTE rudest hotel staff I’ve EVER met and my family has traveled with my husband all over the states The elderly lady we brought was given so many nasty comments from them, especially the Indian lady

I could not hold my tongue anymore She was quoted a price the day or 2 prior but couldn’t get someone to help bring her there then, so she was given a higher price while there She was shocked and truly didn’t understand what they were meaning by why the price changed She was trying to decide if she could and should book it and I guess she was taking too long(less than 5 minutes) to decide, so they both started saying VERY unprofessional things She didn’t deserve that She had been looking for a handicapped room that she could book for a month alllllllll day with absolutely no luck without paying at least $1400 That hotel is no better than a motel 6 and definitely isn’t worth $1400, especially without breakfast, and only 1 person being able to use the pool The rooms are NOTHING like the pictures This place is a joke

Ana Ramirez

I wouldn’t even rate this hotel a 1 star it was such a bad experience! There was a dead bird in the pool that was just thrown out & a lot of bugs in the pool as well We got to our room & found a dead bug & live bugs in our sheets not to mention the sheets were dirty & had hair & stains on them , we went to ask for a refund & we’re trying to be civil with the lady & she just kept arguing with us & didn’t give us a refund she was rude & told us to get used to having bugs because it’s Texas We did ask to see the room before getting it but she said no I hated it here it was such a bad experience my bf got bit by something too in that room so I definitely would not recommend this place!!!!!

Alejandro Borrego

For being the most expensive hotel in town there is too much to improve The rooms design are poor (There is a wall blocking the tv sight), I would expect restaurant and bar service; just breakfast is served According to a letter left in my room this is due to Covid restrictions, hope this changes in the future and gladly would update my opinion

Employees are nice and location is good

Nick Gilles

I’m writing this review to warn others This hotel is decent and clean, so it gets 3 stars However, we stayed here 1 night quickly while passing through

We paid with points When you use Marriott points, you do not expect to pay anything upon check out To my surprise, when I got the receipt emailed, there was a $3 charge for our 1 night I’m not phased by $3 But I was expecting $0 So I investigated what the charge was It was showing up as “Parking recapture fee” What the heck? I did park a car, but they never asked if I did or not Additionally we proactively check everywhere we go, on their website to verify parking is freeWhen I went to check out, I inquired about the $3 charge, and the front desk advised, “Oh, we added a parking charge” And I replied, “ok well, your website says parking is complementary so I’d like it removed” After about 1 minute on the computer the lady advised “Ok it’s done have a nice day”Again, $3 isn’t anything… but if they’re adding this to everyone’s bill at the end of the day it’s an unfair practice as it states parking is complementary PLEASE CHECK YOUR RECEIPT UPON CHECK OUT!!!Also, there was no body wash in the bottle in the bathroom, so maybe housekeeping could do a bit better

Do not stay here AC in my room didn’t work and management thought that giving me a fan would make it okay The AC and fan stayed on all night, and it never got below 79 degrees

Worst night I ever spent in a hotel They called after i left the hotel for work and said they would switch rooms But when I could not get off the jobsite and get back to move my stuff until 5:45, they said that since it was after 4 they could not move the rooms They never told me there was a 4pm deadline I am Gold Elite status with Marriott and they still treated me this way Stay away! I packed and left and went to the new Hilton Garden Inn across the street It is much newer and the AC worked I am glad I found a new place to stay when I am working down here

Jess Alexander

IDK how the room we we’re supposed to get would have been Since they gave our room away!!! And advised it was because we didn’t answer a call 2 hours prior BUT as we checked in… ON TIME! And they told the people in front of us they would be getting the style of room we reserved👀! I’m giving them 2 stars only because we had such a short stay

Sophia Hinojosa

I been going to same location for years and always receive A 1 service with a smile !! That is was keep us returning

4th if July weekend we had an emergency trip to take and were saddened we couldn’t stay a our favorite place Needless to say we had the worst experience else where I will NEVER stay in another hotel other than Marriot!! Thank you to the BEST TEAM AND COOK!! THEY GET 5 STARS FROM ALL MY FAMILY!!!

WOW! This hotel is awesome The pictures on websites does it no justice The rooms were nice and clean and the hotel was very quiet

The hotel staff here makes this place a friendly stay The breakfast and evening social is above and beyond 5 star The food was highly quality, prepared to perfection, they had beer, wine, juices, snacks, no need to go out when it’s all free Ms Billie Du Luna walks around and makes sure all guests are enjoying themselves and is there stay is awesome You don’t see that at expensive hotels The price was well below hotels in that area that offer less Did I mention the daily Otis Spunkmeyer cookies, fresh cucumber water, and pink lemonade all FREE… This hotel is conveniently located to restaurants less than 05 miles and the Mall is right across the highway The hotel is right off the highway on Exit 4 Brownsville, TX If you don’t stay here you are missing out for sure🔥🔥🔥Thanks to all the staff there I will be back home soon Keep the cookies warm😁❤️

SYNAPSEON

Traveled for business and will stay here again Coming from other hotels that only provide a mini-fridge and microwave, I was very satisfied with the kitchen setup (stove top, silverware, full size fridge) The breakfast and coffee were great and there is also a Starbucks around the corner

The happy hour was awesome after a long day of work

T Brad

Brenda at the front desk is exceptional Her professionalism and politeness made my stay a great one She went above and beyond to make sure I could check in a little early and made sure to always greet me during my stay

All of the staff, the hotel and my stay was outstanding I highly recommend this hotel Not only is it close to great restaurants, the breakfast and weekly Social make it that much better BIG Thank you to the staff

This is all so very important to me being we stay here for periods of time and this acts as our second home at times Thank you Candy and the entire La Quinta staff for making us feel at home everyday God Bless 💜

Jonathan Ponce

First of all ima say the rooms are nice lobby is clean breakfast is ok, but the service is not that great I’ve noticed 2 young girls that clean and they are very lazy always together in each rooms & y’all need to watch out a girl name Melissa I overheard her say about my room doesn’t need to be perfect And she had took a water bottle and few candies from my bag

Sheets were very dirty the first day I believe they reuse the same sheets on purpose not caring And the guys working in the rooms are making loud noises everyday for hours leaving the hallways dirty and the elevator By the way I have stayed here before 5 years ago & it was a great experience the pool was clean & the gym now they slacking about it And now they have this nasty moldy smell Y’all need to watch out the old lady supervisor candy/dulce she don’t care about people staying there she’s very unprofessional she’ll act nice in front of your face she had moved me and my girl from our room on purpose to a accessible room which is not okay at all She’ll deactivate our keys on purpose she basically tried to give us a hard time idk if she’s mental or what but she’s not okay in the head I feel sorry for her she don’t deserve a job like that

Terrible!!! I never wanna visit this place again because of the evil hotel employees I made a reservation and when I arrived they give me and my friends attitude because we are Asian and treated us as if we have a virus but we were so tired to look for another hotel so then they put us in a nasty room that has a lot of problems, bugs everywhere, plug doesn’t work and Maintainance guy flirted with me and I felt super uncomfortable! I never want to came back After complaining, they ask us to leave after they got our money!!!!!

Cristal LaFon

CONS: 3rd floor hallway was continually very very warm and humid with a musty smell except for the Saturday when the ac turned on The room ac was good but the air blows directly at you no matter where you are in the room I recommend a diffuser in front of the units to avoid the cold blast of air

Wall thermostat did not work Phone predials were not programmed (ie, front desk) The room never lost it’s damp humid feel — ugh! I’m still waiting for that extra pillowPROS: The shower was FANTASTIC Please install handheld and it will be Perfection for a hotel shower — I took very long baths cause its sooooo wonderful Very QUIET rooms LOVE the sheer rainforest window treatment Beautiful with the sun shining through it EXCELLENT workout facility GREAT pool! I will stay again but will request a 1st floor room since that area was always cool Front Staff was courteous, prompt and always greeted me with a smile and a Welcome Back! Can’t beat that

Patty Winslow

Arrived with a reservation as platinum member Told there was a King (as requested) with accessible tub I asked if it had a shower as well and the clerk stated she didn’t know she has not seen the rooms

I said o would take 2 queens but needed a shower so she offered me that with a roll in shower, I asked what that meant and she did not know I took the room Arrived to the floor and it had a “stinky feet odor” that also penetrated the room The light in the bathroom did not work nor did the tv but is was after 9 PM so I didn’t worry about it There was also a hair tie on my bedside table left from a previous guest Upon check out, I asked for a printed reciept Different clerk stated they had to email it I requested an alternate email and she said she put it on but it went the first email which was my husband’s (Which luckily I can just get from him) When I got to my car I realized I left my charger-went back in to get and the clerk pointed to the bowl of keys and said it should still be active-ok, well they all look alike Fast forward day 2 at Fairfield in McAllen-like night and day! Super friendly receptionist -welcoming and thanked me for “choosing” Fairfield After my first experience was never staying at a Fairfield again, but now I see it is specific to the one in Brownsville

Jamie Downey

A few of the staff members were nice, but the manager was a complete jerk We stayed in a queen double, yet each day had to ask for additional towels (they left 3) The shampoo and body wash dispensers were empty, the thermostat on the wall didn’t work (and they didn’t have replacement batteries), and the bar that was advertised had nothing but beer

Bathroom was filthy, only one of the ice makers worked (the one on the 3rd floor), and the whole place smelled musty We will not return

Clean enough and good location (convenient to highway access and close to shopping & restaurants) but a bit overpriced for the area The fridge in my room was quite loud, which kept me up The bathroom looks like it was cheaply built (caulking was beige/tan in corners where moisture seemed to collect along the outside of the tub/shower) and floor and toilet didn’t seem level — very odd!! Some of the front desk staff are friendly but the one young, thin, Hispanic girl with the long hair on the evening shift was pretentious and too good for the job so be prepared for less than friendly service if you get her

Customer service was excellent Room was clean, bed was comfortableJust needs to be updated

Furniture had a lot of wear and tear Like chipped pieces of wood missing from cabinetsBecause CS was excellent and the fact that the room was clean, I would stay here again if doing a quick trip (72 hrs) again

Great property We found it necessary to stay here after the unexpected hospitalization of my husband Property was well maintained and staff very accommodating

The only thing negative I have to say is that the website said there was a hot tub and there wasn’t They need to remove that from their website The hot tub had been converted to a large planter😂 It did provide a few chuckles for an otherwise tense visit

Everyone was amazing Front desk were very accommodating Except for maintenance that never resolved two of my problems during my entire stay

On the 2nd day of my stay I went up to the front desk to ask for a status update They checked their notebook and saw that my requests were “checked” as resolved by maintenance I told them that the problems are still there They radioed in maintenance to ask about my issues He let out a sigh showing signs of frustration and simply said “I can’t fix that right now”I would see him in the remaining days of my stay roaming around the hotel As if he wasn’t doing anything

Arrived to the hotel Was immediately told my reserved room was unavailable due to mechanical issues Therefore I was changed to a suite

Which did not have a working TV I was upset in most part because I had called the day before to confirm my reservation and room Only to arrive the next day and it was something different Manager tried to accommodate the change but I was already upset I’m a hard working nurse whom just wanted to relax for the weekend with my kids Then our sofa bed was extremely hard for the kids, you could feel the springs on our backs Breakaswas a 10/10

Nice place with fitness equipment conveniently placedI about froze when I opened the door to my room That’s not a bad thing when it’s hot out though

64deg was a little too chilly so I turned the temp up to 72 later to find out why it was turned down so farI didn’t get a wink of sleep Don’t know if it was the firmness of the matress or the comforter raidiating all my body heat back at me The room temp ended back down into the 60s but by that time it was time for me to goFor sure I’d stay again but the a/c would be blasting

See picturesThe air-conditioning unit leaked water causing the carpet to get wet The dresser has soaked up the water causing it to swell and deteriorate

I had my backpack on the floor next to the couch When I realized that the carpet was wet, I picked up my backpack and it had mold on it After further investigation, I noticed the water had gotten into the wall and saw mold I informed the front desk and maintenance came with a sop-vac and got up two containers full of water I took my backpack to the front desk to show that it had mold The person at the front desk didn’t know what to do and said he’d inform the manager and have them call me After a week, I still didn’t hear back from the manager I then went to the front desk and insured about the situation The woman went to the back to speak to the manager and came back to tell me that there’s nothing they can do I asked to speak with the manager That’s when the manager, Roman Portes, came to the front desk I explained the situation to him He said that they would have taken it to have it dry cleaned because that’s what they do with their curtains when they get molded That tells me they have a history of mold problems Anyway I didn’t want to leave a bad review, but they don’t want to help make this right I forgot about the little ants They were annoying I ended up getting my own bug spray
