Rooms at The Pecan

Unique older style motel. Close to the highway but secluded & quiet. Room was very clean & A/C was quiet. No microwave or fridge.

Yes

I stayed for 1 night in a king size room. While the outside needs fresh paint, the rooms were clean, the bed was very comfortable, and great bed linens. Only one electrical plug in bedroom. None in bathroom. Pedestal sink so place to put toiletries. No hairdryer. No dresser, but a piece of furniture with cubbys to put your clothes. An open space with clothes bar but no hangers. Shower with small toiletries for sha.poo and conditioner. Nuce towels. My card declined the hold on the room thinking it might be a bogus charge since I was 300 miles from home. The woman at the front desk was perturbed because she was being charged a fee for the decline and again when she ran the card on arrival. She complained to me about the fees 'especially since I was "already getting an online discount". Parking is free. A vending machine outside with snacks. I saw a coffee pot in the office but did not try it. No coffee pot in room. If you need a room for under $90 (online non refundable reservation) for one night with a comfortable king bed, than I recommend stopping here. My stay in Brownsville was extended for several days so I stayed somewhere else as my needs changed.

I stayed in an “economy” room; it was like a bedroom with an attached bathroom. Overall a good/proper sized room. No fridge or microwave but I travel with a dc fridge and electric kettle so was not an issue for me (not sure if those are provided with other rooms but economy no). There was a TV but did not have any service to it, I think it may have been recently installed and they forgot to connect to antennae or something. I travel with a laptop and my own media so no problem here.. As others have said, this place looks old on the outside but the rooms are all up to date and very well maintained. The a/c was also working properly which I appreciate (I’ve had bad luck with other hotel a/c leaving everything damp, but everything was working properly here). Very quiet at night, and very peaceful during the day. Took a chance on this one and it very much impressed me. It’s also close to restaurants, grocery, shopping areas, night life, and close to the toll road for a quick trip to the island. Looking forward to another stay soon!
