Hotels near University of Texas Medical Branch

"This hotel is beautiful on the outside, but there needs to be some renovations on the inside. You can tell that it’s definitely wear and tear. The Poole could use an upgrade I feel like and you can’t see the beach when you’re using the pool at all. The drinks are right, but they’re a bit pricey and they also have changed chefs a few times so the food is different without knowing because their website still has their old menus. Everything was good though, and the servers are really sweet and nice. Also, the ballet is very nice as well. Our sink was clogged the whole time we stayed so that was annoying."

"very nice clean updated and large rooms; friendly staff; great value during the week but so expensive on weekends due to nearby cruise terminals. "

"Muy buen hotel en general."

"Nice service good location great price"

"The room smelled of mildew. Our clothes took on the mildew smell also. The bathroom fixtures were corroded and scratched. The vanity light had been replaced with a smaller light which showed the painted outline of the old larger light. There were scratches on the walls with plaster/drywall showing. The nightstand lights had corroded metal and one sparked when my wife plugged in her USB adapter. There were several large bugs crawling around and dust/dirt on top of the blow dryer plug. The building had a newer coat of paint that looked good in the photos, but in person it was a coverup for obvious wear and age. Just a miserable dirty and smelly room that we had to endure for one night before our cruise that cost us $190. Not recommended at all, at any price. "

"The hotel was clean and the location was great."

"Disgusting, the room had so many roaches and the bathroom was not cleaned. "

"From my first inquiry with the owner/manager to a text asking if we needed anything, this was an amazing experience. Beautiful facility. Comfortable. Elegant. Welcoming and centrally located. I can't wait to visit again and stay there. "

"I was laying in the bed watching tv, when something caught my eye. It was a roach crawling on my pillow. I jumped up and tried to kill it, but it got away. I immediately called the front desk to ask for a room change, but the front desk clerk advised that they were completely book. I advised that I wasn't staying in that room and they had to do something. He asked if I'd like someone to come to the room to try to get rid of it. I said yes. The guy came and at first we couldn't find the roach. Eventually, we found it and he disposed of it. I had a restless night because I didn't know if more roaches was in the room. Needless to say, I will never stay at this hotel again."
