Lackland Travelodge

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 08 Jun 2010 rated 8 out of 10.

We were there for the Air Force base. It was very close to the base. The most important asset to this hotel was the owner (I think he was the owner). We left something very valuable in the motel room and when we called about it he very graciously mailed it to our home at his expense! you don't get that everywhere you go. The pool was very nice. The room served its purpose and we had a great trip.

Positives: Pool was nice.

Negatives: Gap between door and frame.

It was OK for the visit but probably would not stay there again.

Positives: Location

Negatives: Door had gaps an just not what the pictures made it out to be.

Its nice to stay in my wife was graduating military training. Hotel was not bad just the price and the fridge didn't really work but overall they have HBO and the room was clean. Breakfast wasn't great about average. Only had cereal and sweets. Can't complain but could've been better. But I recommend to anyone who want to be near Lackland AFB and they do have great customer service.

Positives: I liked that I didn't see any bugs and my bed was made before 9am and also no one stole anything.

Negatives: The coffee makers was made in 1800, microwave had no way of being plugged in. The price was too much, the fridge didn't work.

Overall it was kept clean and was convenient, except for the cricket and remote.

Positives: It was convenient to where we wanted to be.

Negatives: The remote control did not work, a cricket kept us up most of the night.

The cleanliness was there, but the bed was horrible. Cigarettes burns on countertops. The bathroom was really small. The area did not seem very safe.

Positives: We enjoyed the hot tub.

Negatives: The location was bad. Used car lot right in front of motel.

The entire place was filthy, not enough towels and washcloths provided and all were dingy and dirty and stunk as were the bed linens. There was snot (or whatever) smeared all over the walls of the shower. The shower drain didn't work, so by the time you were finished with your shower, you were standing in ankle deep water. The entire staff was rude and completely unfriendly. We were given a smoking room when a nonsmoking room was requested and so between the filth and the smoke, all of our belongings stunk by the time we left. The walls must be paper thin, because we heard every noise from every adjoining room and were pretty sure the people above us would be joining us at any moment through the ceiling! There was a junky car lot next to the motel parking lot which was separated by a razor fence, not so comforting! And lastly, we ended up checking out a day earlier than we planned and the motel manager charged us for an extra regardless and charged us for only the nights we actually stayed, then made up some story about how we told him we were leaving and going to stay at a different motel (which was not the truth, we were just going home). So, we ended up paying for a night at a dump that we didn't even stay! We were so frustrated by this time that we didn't have the energy to argue any further, and we can't speak Spanish and couldn't understand him anyway so we gave up. I wouldn't recommend this motel to my worst enemy! I think this place should be shut down.

Positives: Nothing.

Negatives: Everything.

In the light of its very reasonable pricing, the motel was clean, good location and friendly staff except rooms have bugs. Will never stay there again.

Positives: Friendly staff.

Negatives: Cockroaches-crickets-bugs. Will never stay there again.

This hotel was filthy, the pool was okay, but the sheets were unclean, the room had bugs, there was no HBO as stated online and the rooms smelled unclean. The floor had not been swept and it was very poorly vacuumed. Would not recommend. The neighborhood was kind of scary.

Positives: Pool was okay.

Negatives: Crickets on floor, unclean sheets, poor location, and poor breakfast.

This hotel is not for traveling with small children if you are going to be spending a lot of time at the hotel. We basically just slept there because we spent our days at Sea World. It was clean for the star rating but the neighborhood is not very nice.

Positives: It had a refrigerator.

Negatives: The smell in the hotel room was disgusting.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 04 Jul 2007 rated 10 out of 10.

The hotel in all was a pleasant experience I enjoyed having access to the pool area and the deck by the pool was relaxing with the swing they had. Also the b-b-que pit was a plus!

Positives: Room service every day, good breakfast and nice clean pool.

Negatives: The water pressure was a little poor.

I reserved a non-smoking room however was given a smoking room with the ashtrays removed. We know it was a smoking room not only because of the smell but also because of the sign on the door and because of the burn marks located on the bathroom tub and on shelf of the hairdryer. When I called to have them change my room I was informed that they had no other rooms to give me. The clerk on duty told me that she was in the room earlier and it did not smell bad and in fact they had sprayed Febreeze so it was okay. The smell of the smoke was very obvious to me and it was difficult to sleep because of it. The sheets also felt damp. We would have left if we weren't so exhausted and we if we knew for sure our money would be refunded. The neiborhood it is located in did not feel safe either. The only good thing about it was that it was 10 minutes from Sea World. I would not recommend this motel and I will not be staying there again.

Positives: It had a bed.

Negatives: The location it was in did not feel safe.

The travel lodge was close to sea world and not too far from downtown. It was easy to find. The room was clean and the staff helpful. The neighborhood around the motel didn't seem too classy though.

Positives: It was close to sea world.

Negatives: It wasn't in a very good part of town.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 06 Sep 2006 rated 9 out of 10.

Positives: Convenient location for Sea World.

Negatives: Small lobby and breakfast area.
