I went to this hotel I thought i was going to stay at becuase it was close to my job as I went in Rudy Moya was very nice and polite and friendly very happy. He showed me room 3 it was ver oraganized and clean then he showed me the laundrymate and it was very maintained and RV park was very clean. I inticipate in staying at the motel or RV. Soon. I give them a 5 star even though I didnt stay. And I will be hopefully staying for quite a bit.

"DONT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER" My wife was skeptical about staying here but was swiftly opening up to the idea while checking in with the new GM Stephanie, (a U.S Army Veteran like myself )was very warm and welcoming . The room was clean, very comfortable, and Inviting. Stephanie was also extremely accommodating. She went above and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable , we got to hotel super early and we were allowed to check in early at 10am, she doesn't l know how much stress she relieved by doing that. I know from personal experience that no other accommodations in the area would do that ! I highly recommend this hotel for anyone coming to stay in Mathis, or just stopping through! The also have a RV park located in the back !

Nice quiet campground. We were 1 night stop. Rate was very reasonable and when combined with military discount was a cheap night.

We cannot thank Stephanie, (Manager), enough for all the help securing our stay. Due to several mishaps, it took us 3 days to make a 17 hour drive from Colorado. All Stephanie asked was for us to stay in touch with updates and she held our reservation and made adjustments to accommodate our misfortunes. We LOVED the stay. it was very quiet and out of the way which protected our privacy. Guaranteed, the next time we vacation to Padre Island, we will without a doubt stay at Mathis RV Park every time. The commute to the island is well worth the stay here.

Great place to stay, very quiet and nobody messes with you or your things. It is close to a grocery store and a few gas stations. Some good Mexican food across the street and fishing is but 5 min up the road so I am very pleased with this spot!
