Pelican Inn by Belvilla Aransas Pass, TX

No comment

Room was dirty. Hotel isnt up kept. Didn't feel safe

Room was clean staff was helpful

Never again!

The room had mold, roaches and bed bugs. It was evident no one has cleaned or tried to up keep the first room. We got assigned to a second room that was better but still not comfortable.

We're regular guests here. Never had issues. We love visiting the local bar Crows nest..within walking distance.

.........................

Había bichos en la cama y piso es un hotel muy viejo estuve esperando 30 minutos el agua caliente y nada la cama es antigua de resorte no volvería y aparte te piden 25 dls de depósito

Ice machine was broken and bed was a little stiff...but was good for the price and location

Nice staff, clean rooms, parking lot clean.

The room we stayed in was very dated and not at all what the pictures were advertising it to be. The ac was mediocre at best the room didn’t cool down till about 3am each day. The room was supposed to accommodate 6 guest but only had bath wash rags/ towels for 2 and no toilet paper. The bathroom was full of patches in the walls. Mixed matched paint and cracked silicone everywhere around the tub an wall. The room itself was patched everywhere as well with different shades of paint on each patch. The fridge an tv worked well. The headboards on the wall were stained for god knows what. I have pictures of everything if you would like them.

Rooms were clean and beds comfortable. Its like the saying goes you get what you pay for, it's inexpensive for being close to Port Aranasas, we always stop here cause of the convenience , staff is friendly.

The room was disgusting; there was hair everywhere, the shower was black, stuff all over the walls. Bad, just bad!

Too pricy for the condition of the room.

To start we experienced roaches throughout our room. The room was very patched up everywhere including walls, doors, & restroom. Door at the bottom was missing a huge piece allowing the room not to stay cold and bugs to enter. Beds were very hard, refrigerator had a very strong odor, almost all drawers were broken. Will not consider this hotel in the future.

It was very quiet and peaceful compared to other hotels I have stayed at❤️

Emergency came up and we didn’t make they would not let me reschedule or cancel. My card was charged for the room.

The room we got was horrible. The ceiling leaked. The bathroom door was off the hinge so it dragged the floor. The sink faucet was loose from the sink. The walls had chipped paint and when they painted the didn't care where the paint got, all around the lamps that were on the walls. Definatly didn't look like the pictures. Should have demanded another room. Will never stay there again.

What a rip off. From the moment you arrived the guys trying to get you to “upgrade your room at an additional $15.00 a night”. Room smelled like mildew 😡

It smelled like mildew and I discovered blood on the sheet!!!!

Roaches everywhere and mattress was full of stains toys socks and trash under the bed. Bathroom sink faucet not secured

This was a great value and we slept so comfortably all night! Usually we toss and turn away from home but once we were out we woke up feeling great! Staff was very friendly and they had a full house! But no complaints. Everyone was respectful about the quiet hours. Would definitely stay here again. Great location, great value!

The room smelled old and musky

Severe Bathroom & Hygiene Issues: The restroom was in awful condition. There was a broken, sharp porcelain tile on the floor, posing a clear safety hazard. That I cut my foot on. Worse, the pest control is non-existent—we had roaches crawling directly out of the bathtub and ants all over the walls. Dilapidated Room & Maintenance: The walls throughout the room are terribly maintained, filled with holes, and the carpet had a large hole in it. To top off the lack of upkeep, several light bulbs were completely missing from the lamps. Misleading Room Description: The room we received did not match what we paid for. The website description explicitly stated our selected room would feature a king-size bed, but we were given only a full-size bed and a small sofa. The utter lack of upkeep and false advertising made for a disturbing and miserable experience. I strongly advise potential guests to look elsewhere until management takes maintenance and cleanliness seriously.

The property smells so musty, a very beat up property. We asked for 6 towels total for the six people staying in the room and they said they ran out of towels. Terrible service. You get what you pay for I suppose!

The staff was friendly it was a last minute trip to the beach an we needed a place for the night.

The lady at the front was so nice but I unfortunately did not like the room. I know for the price not to have high hopes but at least have a working shower in the room. And the bathroom was not cleaned at all.

It was dirty, smelled bad

Very clean room and helpful front office

Horrible stay roaches everywhere

.

Later, she called and told me we had been placed in the “ Deluxe” room, which was honestly concerning because I couldn’t imagine what the lower-tier rooms were like. The room itself was very small and outdated. The TV didn’t work or even turn on. As for cleanliness, I’d give it about a 6 out of 10. Overall, it wasn’t a terrible stay, but it definitely wasn’t somewhere I’d choose again unless it was a last resort. In fact, we ended up driving home on the last day instead of staying for our final night.

My day started quite positively. But it ended with harsh disrespect. I was charged $75 not only for the $25 deposit but $50 for accused stealing of towels. When I arrived on Friday, July 24, I had a full set of towels in the room. I showered Saturday morning and used the towels. I left for the day came back and housekeeping had only left half a set of towels Saturday evening, the 25th. Sunday’s housekeeping, I assume noticed the shortage of towels and accused me of stealing them and charged me $50. The manager never called me back the front desk said they were discuss it with the manager and I never received a call. I called twice explaining the situation. And I was still charged the $25 for incidentals and the $50 for the missing towels. I will never return to this hotel.

Everything... sheets were dirty had to buy my own sheets to use , room had a bad odor, saw roaches, ice machine had so much build up on it I wasn't sure if the ice was safe to use. The walls had stains. The a/c unit worked really well but had build up on it. Found mice dropping next to the bed... Lamp also had stains looking like mold right next to the bed. Staff was super friendly but after seeing the rooms i regretted every second booking this place... But no refund and thought it would be ok since I was just going to sleep there until I saw a roach on the lamp the second day after I came back. Wondered what it crawled on while we were gone and how many more where there

Everything false advertisement

Nothing at all didn’t even stay ounce I seen the inside. Everything very disgusting and filthy.

there was a dead frong , bed sheets smell nasty

This hotel is disgusting. The room we were given had bugs, toilet was cracked, tub was filthy, there was urine in the toilet like someone used it and didn’t flush, around the toilet in the floor was gross looked like it’s never been cleaned. We should know how gross it was going to be on how the curtains looked as you could see outside as they were filthy. Monica the front desk tried giving us another room but that was not better and even had a smell to it. Do yourself a favor and do not book this hotel.

Decent place for the value, floors are always handy and tubs always drain very slowly creating a swimming pool to shower in...

No as pictured

We booked a room with 3 double beds. The hotel room was kept in poor condition. Few of the outlets in the room worked. The chairs are covered in stains. There was about 1 inch gap under the hotel door. Honestly if everything around us hadn’t been booked we definitely would have left this hotel. The pictures online are VERY misleading.

The pictures on the website made the location look presentable but upon arrival it was totally the opposite. There were roaches and the bathroom had water leaks and smelt damp

Room 220 is the best room It exceeded my expectations

Very poor maintenance in the room. Mattresses need to be changed and more pillows for the beds and towels. 3 beds and yet only 2 towels. Things got stolen from our suv while we slept. Last minute booking but won’t go back.

Biggest joke ever.

Convenient Easy access

Yes, the room was not clean, food leftover from previous guests was in the fridge, dirty washrag in the tub, and it did not look like the pictures. I didn’t expect the best for the price but this was a pretty funky place.

Our stay was okay, however I did notice 2 things missing when we came back from Rockport. I noticed my deodorant and my hair clip were missing. They are just material things but it's not respectful on behalf of the cleaning staff to take things that don't belong to them. Again it is just material things but that's not the point. I hope they enjoy my deodorant and my hair clip that was custom made. It was evident they needed it more than I did.

Got two separate rooms one with a king size bed room was average can't complain second room was a 2 queen bed room this one was a disaster old , dirty, toilet & shower was not functional toilet literally was loose from the floor in top of all this I got charge $25 deposit on each room in which I have not received no refund will definitely not recommend price is cheap but you will definitely regret not paying those extra 20 on another property

Me & my wife got so sick from the intense smell of mold mildew I dont think i will be staying there again . My friends sink was clogged and would overfill The smell and the floors were super sticky. Very bad experience for us

Verys nasty looking inside rooms very very dirty mood on pillows and blankets mood in shower floors walls all broken selfs all broken smells like mood the AC works good tvs were up to date that was the only thing good in the room I will never take my family there again my kids where all freaking out on the shower and THE room it's self my kids said mom wat the hack is this I felt so bad for my kids but I couldn't not get my money BK so I had to stay there no refunds if u pay online or any app no cancelation never again I will NOT NOT NOT 🚫 recommend anyone to stay there

This place should be condemned and booking. Com should also be fined for having suggested this place. Its a roach motel from hell.

That they accepted us at midnight

Dead bugs on my nightstand. Creepy lady barging in the room. Neighbor moaning loud as hell at 2100. Bathroom so bad I ain’t even wanna get clean in it. Someone’s hair on da floor. Floor made my shoes make that squeaky noise. Cops were there. Fo of em.

The staff: super friendly and as helpful as they could be given the condition of this hotel. Bed and linens: Our bed had two pillows that seemed older than time itself, the stuffing barely supporting the weight of the pillow case. I asked for more pillows and they were only able to give us one more. The mattress was in the same state, needing to be replaced years ago. I could still smell previous guests in the "clean" linens and towels, so thank the gods Walmart was nearby for replacements. The room: The door had about a 2 inch gap of open air at the bottom, allowing the Texas heat to pour into the room without defense. The safety latch was present, but the part where the latch secures the door was not. The door itself took some finagling and serious muscle to open... I could hear our neighbors having the same issue. The roach: about a 3 inch cockroach introduced itself one morning and all staff could do was shrug their shoulders. The end: people are asking me about my beach trip and all I can tell them is, "don't go to the Pelican Inn."

Friendly staff , poor cleaning

Everything. I didn't even stay the night.

It was filthy..pillow had horrible drool stains and were disgusting..the room had centipedes crawling around..we bought cleaning products to clean the floors. Tub and toilet...all other hotels were booked so we were stuck there.

The room (especially the bathroom) needed a deep cleaning. There was still long hair with dyed purple ends stuck to the wall of the shower. I do not have long purple hair. There was a half empty 2liter bottle of Dr. Pepper under the bed. The walls, doors, trim, mirror, and tile around and behind the toilet were all filthy. The shower cutain has that red filmy mildew in the hem at the bottom.Clearly has not been scrubbed or cleaned at all in easily weeks. That kind of dirt and crud does not accumulate in a couple days. Even the lampshade was filthy, covered in dust with dirt or mildew spots. There were also no towels in the room, i had to go to the office and request them. It makes me question whether the room was actually cleaned before they checked us in or if they just made the bed. We checked in on a sunday night. They were not busy at all. The staff was friendly, but the rooms need a deep cleaning.

The door didnt lock and you could see in all the way around it The shower was dirty and handle barely worked so the water temp was whatever the knob would turn to The bed had cigarette burns on the blanket The curtains were to small so you could see in from outside The place was dirty and when we complained they didn’t seem to care The towels were washed but so dinghy we didn’t want to use them This property should be removed from all travel site I would rate it a -1 on all things so geoss

Room smelled a little moldy, used soap in the bathroom, just not very clean but not terrible. The employee had an attitude as well

Pictures ARE deceiving. The only thing that helped was the front desk lady was the sweetest person ever. Can definitely use some renovations.

Small, musty room with mold on the floor by the mini fridge, by the sink, around the mirror. Bed linens, shower curtain, and towels all stained. The AC created more noise than cold air. The office staff was friendly but we won’t be returning.

it was very nasty, the walls were mushy if that makes any sense, there were holes in the bathroom looks like some kind of animal chewed threw the wall there was holes in the wall the fridge had mold in it, the roof was sinking in the light was shining in under the door, the bathroom door dragged, we just had walked in and all that hit you was a nasty mold smell and there was 4 things plugged into one extension cord the ac, the fridge, the lamp, and the microwave that is a fire hazard

It was an emergency stop, but will never choose that hotel again.

Good place to sleep 6 people in a room

By far the worst place I've ever stayed. The room was filthy, and I found roaches inside. There was a two-inch gap under the door that made it easy for bugs and outside air to come in. I also found old food left in the drawers, and the room had a musty, moldy smell that was impossible to ignore. To make matters worse, there were exposed electrical outlets that were rusted, damaged, and looked like a serious safety hazard. It felt like basic maintenance and cleanliness had been ignored for a long time. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. If you're looking for a clean, safe place to stay, keep driving and spend your money somewhere else. This place is a absolute joke. Expedia it’s a shame you even have this place on here!

Room was ok. Cleaning was not at wife’s level but after a quick run to HEB, and after a mop, fabuloso, dawn dish soap and some Lysol the tub was back white, toilet looked new, smelled fresh and floor was no longer greasy. Other than that paint looked newer and beds were comfortable for the quick stop. Not a bad place to stop in for work, but not the vacation spot. Overall was ok for the quick stop.

Dirty

Staff had great service; needs some remodeling; washer/dryer working; overall for a quick and easy staying it’s a decent place.

The staff were very professional and attentive to the needs of my family and I! Beautiful place to visit!

There was a piece of kids clothing hanging over the bathroom door and hair on the bathroom tub and floor, but beds were clean and wifi was iffy. The staff was nice though😅😅 OH and ants in the bathroom sink if I rinsed my kids cups out in it.

Nice place to stay, quite a nice place to lay your head after a day at the beach I wood recommend this little place

Even with low rates you would expect cleanses . The exterior was presentable We were going to stay a few hours to rest before a fishing trip . Checking in we were assigned a room and it was horrible roaches around we killed a few for them and walked out . Very unsanitary I wouldn’t recommend. Staff asked about relocating but I denied . We were better off leaving . I told staff we’re better sleeping in our vehicle . Non refundable of course please use that for at least DIY pest control

The door had a huge gap at the bottom so I used their towels to close it off The plumbing just sits in the tub and sink and takes a while to go down Only good thing I can say is the propriety is quiet

Nice staff

Deplorable. Nasty rooms. Nasty people working there. Rude. Lazy takes forever to get assistance

Maid service only left fresh towels the 1st morning. Didn't make the bed up. The fridge is broken, doesn't cool at all. And the tub was very slick and couldn't take a good shower. Also shower curtain doesn't keep water from getting on the floor.

Did not use WiFi.

nothing at all like it was described in the description, couldn't go inside to check in I had to check in through a window outside,the office was pretty much closed my entire stay, had to pay a $50 deposit that I still haven't got back , lady at the desk said it takes 48 hours so we will see, don't understand what the deposit was for the room I stayed in needed a lot of tlc, says free wifi but there was no wifi, the room was very unclean, bathtub needs to be bleached had to buy cleaner to clean before I would take a shower, under the bed looked like it hadn't been swept or mopped in months, mini fridge definitely hadn't been cleaned in a while, I had no choice but to stay there because I couldn't afford to pay for another hotel room because they wouldn't let me cancel my stay and get my money back, this hotel was not worth the money they charged me to stay there, not to mention people were up outside partying until 4 am being loud and the hotel staff allowed it

Not a safe place nor clean place

Great staff

Good

Rats everywhere

Nice Quiet Place 😊

I locked myself out of my room at 3am in the morning and the front desk guy WAS on duty and extremely helpful!!!

Very budget atay. Loud doors and people tromping about all night. But 1 block walk to nearest bar.

Excellent

Room was clean

Short drive to DT. Donut shop across the street.

The room was NASTY roach poop on the bed and live roach on one the bed. Roach poop all over the room. Pictures are deceiving. That’s why I booked it but was very disappointed. I would not recommend anyone to stay there. Tub was clogged, rusty and the employee asked if we wanted a plunger. What the heck that not our job. Wished we could get out money back.

Dirty and ceiling was leaking and toilet wasn't even bolted to the floor and door knob to restroom was broken

Needs major updating

Will never stay her again was the worst experience my mom opened the drawer an a drug needle was in it with a cockroach I’m so glad my baby didn’t open it.. no toilet paper or shampoo in the room housekeeping is horrible wanted my money back an they wouldn’t refund me

room was disgusting baby cockroaches everywhere dead and alive pictures did not match the hotel felt grossed out immediately left go another hotel DO STAY HERE unless you enjoy living in a dump

Good experience , do recommend good pricing.

No major issues, nice place to stay to fish, crash, fish - nice staff -

Very old and outdated. Had dead bugs in the room, felt very dirty. Would not stay again.

Si buscas algo no muy caro y para descansar, te lo recomiendo

We had roaches in our room, sheets had blood stains on them. For the price I understood what we would get but roaches isn’t acceptable.

A. The room met our needs, though it could benefit from a refresh. We would not have stayed there more than one night & probably won’t be back

Nothing good to say

Absolutely disgusting mold infested bathroom , mysterious stains everywhere, putrid smell, cigarette burns on bed sheets , staff lied . I was shown 3 separate rooms and they were all putrid

For starters, the whole office building is on lock up. You can't go inside. The workers are not friendly. They rip you off with expensive taxes and deposits even after you already paid. They say you will get refunded on your card for deposits but then totally rip you off. The room smells bad, the sheets have cigarette burns and stains. There's no where to hang your clothes. No drawers. No office access. No grass for the dogs. There's a tiny square that is full of fish guts and trash. The parking and hotel access is horrendous. Oh, and dont sit on the couches in the delux rooms. They are disgusting.

Got to hotel and they were qui k to take my card to charge. They said I could see room until I payed. After getting my key I immediately saw how dirty it was, I inspected the beds and the sheets were all stained and they had bugs. I immediately went to the front desk and cancelled my reservation. They said they couldnt do anything until Monday since it was on a Saturday.that I had to contact Expedia. So I had to go and spend more money on another hotel! Worst experience ever!

Thought we would stay to get a quick vacation in. Everything was dirty and gross. Toilet was cracked. Tub/shower was dirty and poorly maintained. We had 6 people staying and they gave us 2 towels to bathe with. When asked for more they took our used ones and only gave 2 more. Internet was terrible. Don’t say free wifi if it doesn’t even work. Everything didn’t seem clean. Definitely don’t stay here. Now I know why it was on the lower price. Very noisy. Cheap everything. Window blinds were terrible. Expect not to sleep with the bright outside lights shinning in. Save your money and go somewhere else. Definitely will be telling everyone not to stay.

Was nice and cozy . Clean happy with the stay

Mold in the bathroom and none of the outlets worked. Everything was just run down

Room has growing mold, open electrical boxes in the bathroom. A surge protector hanging from the TV plugged into a wall. Dirty and moldy microwave, a3 inch gap under the door. We asked to change rooms but were told no and no refund. DON'T STAY HERE! THE CITY INSPECTOR NEEDS TO VISIT THIS PLACE.

N/a

I will NEVER stay here again. I have never taken a shower with my shoes on but I did here. I had to clean before we could even go to bed. Killed a cockroach on the wall. And the safety lock on the door did NOT secure the door. Only 2 outlets worked 1 light out of the 3 worked. Expedia you should NOT have this one listed. I have never been so disappointed and it makes me very nervous about future trips and using your site. Staff was friendly that is all I can say nice about this place.

Very good and reasonable

Room felt humid not the greatest but good and cheap place to just lay your head for a night

The location is ok

Clean yes quiet yes felt forgotten about and needing some work done to the whole building possibility but still very comfortable and not unpleasant

Nirbwhat i expected

Excellent

The online pictures are extremely misleading. The property is in very poor condition. The rooms are basically a bed in a room. They shove 3 full size beds into a small efficacy size room side by side, the television is rigged wired to the wall. Wires exposed on wall lamps, Bathroom was horrendous and towels were stained yellow. Ur not given the option to NOT have cleaning service.so i would not recommend leaving ANY expensive items in the room. I did not complete my stay there and checked out immediately. I WILL NEVER stay here again.

Front desk rep was kind and courtious. BUT the rating for the tidiness of the room was extremely dirty. Left over water bottles on the side of bed, blood stains on the wall. The walls were stained with dark liquid, the restroom has roaches. You can tell there was no dusting or wiping during turn overs. When I checked out, I heard the front desk rep tell the cleaning lady " you need to clean the rooms correctly and not just make the beds. I have had several complaints about our rooms." Whether the cleaning lady will listen and do a better job, I highly doubt that.

Definitely not as seen in the advertising pictures. Outlets didn’t work, light switch coverings in the bathroom were missing, tile was falling from the baseboards. The bolt for the lock was broken, shower head was crusted over. Not child safe or sanitary
