I spent a night at this Super 8 motel in Sealy, TX. The motel's location is right by Freeway 10 and…read moreHighway 36. It is very hard to get to the hotel. The motel looked old, and the staff was not friendly. The towels were either old or dirty because there were some stain spots on them. I liked the shower water pressure because it was very strong. The motel needs to be updated because it is an old motel.

The room was nice but Bring your own towels and cleaning supplies. The towels and tub were dirty.read more

This place is absolutely disgusting. I wish I could give it 0 stars but 1 will do. Me my husband…read moreand our dog stayed here 2 weeks ago for what was supposed to be one night. Keep in mind the only reason we stayed here was because it was the only dog friendly hotel in the area we were in. And it looked the least scary (this place looks NOTHING like the pictures) when we checked into the hotel we took our stuff Into the room and we're there for about 1 hour. Then left to visit with family. Later we returned to turn in for the night. As soon as I got Into bed I noticed multiple brown/red stains on the comforter (I assumed this to either be blood or feces) I instantly threw this on the floor. Not even 20 minutes later I went to the bathroom and noticed a small cockroach sitting on the sink. After my husband squashed it i knew we had to get out of there. The lady at the front said she would take down our names and number and had already made a note in their "notebook" at the front. For the past 2 weeks me, my husband, and my mother have been trying to get ahold of either the manager or owner with no success. Honestly I don't think either of them even exist. However my mom did speak to someone at the front desk that said because we were there for HOURS that we couldn't receive our refund. I called yesterday and spoke to Jennifer i believe who told me the owner Malik would be in today before 3 so I called at 2:05. This woman answered and said he wasn't even there that he was there yesterday ? Again this makes me question if he/she even exists. I proceeded to tell her what was going on and she dismissed me. The line went quite and I assume she put me on mute. I hung up and proceeded to call multiple times and the calls were either rejected or ignored. I did however leave a message and said I will post a review with pictures if I'm not helped. I don't want to but I will. When she finally picked up I introduced myself again and said why did you hang up on me im trying to get help and she said "I don't have time to listen to people talk and talk". Keep in mind this is the kind of hotel that is rented out hourly (which is apparently true because a receptionist actually told my mother that) I wish there would have been an actual honest review of this hotel before we spent the money. Overall the moral of this very long story is DO NOT STAY HERE!

I nodded off while driving to Austin. I needed a room that was clean and had a comfy bed. being…read morethat I had no clue where I was I said next hotel I see were in there! Well that was a lie. Holiday Inn was $150! No way. I just need to sleep. I then see America's Best Value Inn. $70 with tax. Deal. We get to our room and open the door and it smells like an ashtray. Yes I do smoke but usually not indoors. I had to switch rooms. We went to front desk and they got us a non smoking room no problem. I did my usual cleanliness/bedbug check and it was spotless. I immediately jumped in the bed and was amazed at how soft and comfortable the bed was! I was asleep within 1.5 minutes!! The fridge worked fine, Hubbie threw 4 boxes of leftovers in there and it stayed ice cold. The microwave worked too. Mom enjoyed the in room Arabica coffee. There was plenty towels and small soaps. It was really all I needed. NO PEST. SOFT BEDS. CLEAN ROOMS. I'm not sure why its rated so low. ITS A BUDGET MOTEL FOLKS. Not a hotel. Not a resort. Just an inn with clean rooms and great beds. There's even a little garden bar attached to the inn! That's rare for inns and motels.

I have been curious about Blisswood for awhile. I like getaways with nice tubs and hot tubs. This…read moreone seemed to foot the bill being close to Houston. I was on the fence as the pictures made it look nice but was it dated? Too country? I wasn't sure. So...headed to Wimberly, I decided to break up the driving and try this place out. So, now I'm thinking Blisswood is running out of bliss. We arrived at night and let me tell you, it is hard to find at night. When I called the owner about getting inside since the gate was shut, she explained we had to open the gate (manually)...odd for such a large operation. Forget food...it is quite far for food. We wound up eating breakfast for dinner as we did bring breakfast items. The bed seemed comfy as far as sheets were clean but pillows were all soft and old. Not one firm pillow. If you go, bring your own. It did not feel antiquish. It felt garage sale-ish. Everything was very dated and just tired. The curtains really tripped me out. They looked like rags and did not even match. The shower had gross caulking that looked like mold. The cabin had a moldy smell and just looked like it was built of the cheapest possible scraps. The hot tub...see photos. We kept on one side only. It smelt like tons of bleach. The hot tub surroundings were a rickety hazard. The step down into the bedroom...another hazard. I'm sure people have fallen as it blends. Maybe I'm spoiled from my recent Round Top stays but this place needs a serious "redo." I saw the owner's story one day I believe on YouTube and wanted to support her cause. Maybe it's good for the activities. I want to believe that's where it shines. If you really love super rustic, super dated spaces, this may be ideal for you. Also, the kitchen light did not work. Bulb was out. Doesn't someone make sure the cabins are ready? Obviously not or the hot tub would not have looked like that. So, for a romantic getaway, I would keep looking. There is much better out there and even cheaper. I don't get how they charge what they do here.

A great place to explore and get away for a while…read more We came to this ranch as a bit of an escape from the city life and rest our heads. We were going to do the safari tent but the tent got damaged. So we ended up in a little cabin in the woods instead. The cabin itself was simple, but had plenty of modern amenities. A stovetop, microwave, indoor bathroom and shower, hot water, hot tub, electric fireplace, and whirlpool bath. The space was small but intimate, clean and furnished but aged and worn. It's not luxurious living, but it has a ton of luxury items that one would not normally find in a venue like this. We booked some horseback riding and wildlife safari excursions. The horseback riding was fun, slow paced but as I never rode a horse before it was enough to get the feel of things. The wildlife safari was actually quite entertaining as well. You get up close and personal with deer, buffalo, bucks, donkeys, emu, and antelope. They very much know you got food, and watching a pack of stampeding buffalo barrel towards you for food is a very cool experience. The space is large and varied, there's plenty to see and lots you can do. It's a great space to take the family to and live as simple as you would like. The girlfriend dealt with logistics, but every interaction with staff or the owner was professional and friendly. Every part of the booking, modifying, and check in process was easy and everyone we interacted with was very hospitable. This was one of the highlights of our trip, and although our weather was not ideal we did make the best of it. It's a nice place to stay and worth the trek if you just want a respite

What a dump! I refused to stay here. If only I could give zero stars, I would. It was The…read morescariest hotel I have even been in. I took a look around, and left after 15 minutes. You know how when you pull up to the hotel and you can park under the overhang and drive thru to your parking? The clerk parked his car on the other side of the over hang , so no one could have shaded parking while they went in to check in. That should have been a red flag, that the property owners didn't care about the customrs. I went into the lobby- the clerk was behind a bulletproof wall. Where the 'free breakfast' area was - there was a nasty sideboard with prepackaged Honey Buns, a very small microwave, and a dirty Mr. Coffee coffeepot. That was my second red flag. I asked 2 or 3 times, is it safe here? and the clerk said, just lock your doors. I said because it's just me and my sister, will we be safe? He said it will be ok. I also noticed there was a big sign that said, Our rooms have been renovated with granite countertops! I asked if I was getting a newly renovated room and the clerk said, "maybe......." So I drive on the gravel rutted parking lot to my room - 354. I noticed that there were a lot of transient looking people hanging out - car hoods up like they are working on their cars - laundry hung out and flapping in the breeze - open windows to the hotel rooms (it was warm and humid) and semi truck drivers pulling up and parking for the day. My room was conveniently located next to the freeway and on the side of the train tracks, just like what you see on Forensic Files. Inside, door jambs were very dirty, the slabs of plastic looking granite that were on the walls of shower/tub were not flush and there was a gaping spot in the corner where the slabs did not meet. Looked like a great hangout for spiders and roaches. I did not see bugs, the TV looked not very new but it was on the wall. You can see the old office push button phone in one of my pics. I started my customary wipe down of everything but within 10 minutes, I heard so much banging and shouting that I decided I could not stay here. I I had a bad feeling in my gut, and I knew I had to get out of there. I don't mind an old hotel but this was ridiculous. I was only able to take six pictures of what was wrong with this place, but there was so much more. There was a chain hanging from the door but no lock on the other side to slide chain lock into. Speaking of chains, have you ever seen a chair cushion chained to the chair? Me neither. The place was so dirty, sloppy, and depressing looking. The carpet was badly stained, the bathroom fan made a horrendous noise, the sink faucet did not have a screen on it, so when I turned on the faucet, the water came dumping furiously all over me. I called my friend who lived in the area and said, I think I will get murdered here and she let me stay at her house. I get to my friend's house and her brother said NEVER stay at his hotel - it's a NoTell Motel. And it is where transients live. It is not safe at all. The rooms look NOTHING like the website. I called the clerk, and said,I'm not staying here. I'm leaving the cards in the rooms. He offered to switch rooms, and I told him I did not feel safe, and that the rooms were not very clean. He said OK. That was it. It was not even worth going into the sad looking lobby to return the cards, or even tell him that I wasn't staying. I just wanted to get out of there. This is an awful place! My husband called hotels.com thru which we booked our room, and we got a voucher worth twice what I paid for the room. I wouldn't send my worst enemy here!

Let me start this review by saying I would give it zero stars if possible. I am not the type of…read moreperson to complain about a place to stay especially if it's just for one night but this place was TERRIBLE. My mother, girl friend and I stayed here while attending a wedding in Belleville and made the unfortunate mistake of booking online. When we first pulled up to the hotel, I couldn't believe it was actually open. The outside looks REALLY rundown and trashy. To the point where I literally thought it was out of business and we had made a mistake. There were no makings for parking, there were sections of the stairs marked off with caution tape, there were boards on some windows, and even more worrisome there were some rooms that were missing doors and marked off. We were very hesitant but we could afford to try and find anything last minute as we were already running late. The interior smelled old and was very musky. The toilet took a LONG time to refill before it could be used again and the plugs were practically non existent. The bed was missing support? I know that sounds weird but when you go to lay down and you literally tip and fall off the bed... it'll make more sense. To make a long story short, we locked every door, constantly checked on the truck, and barely got any sleep. Will NEVER STAY HERE AGAIN.
