Good for the price

The room was clean and they were very accommodating. The only problem was the smell of the room but it wasn’t anything that Fabreeze couldn’t fix. Their continental breakfast wasn’t good. The coffee machine was out of order and the juices were out as well. The little restaurant next door had great food and coffee so that problem was solved quickly.

It was a NO for me

Seldom have I ever left a hotel after paying and I've stayed in some questionable hotels, but I actually had to leave this one. I couldn't stay. The first room had mold all over the comforter and smelled horribly. The 2nd room had shoe prints on the sheets, was covered in dust, plugs hanging from the wall, and smelled like weed. I gave 2 rooms a chance and went back to cancel. Just go ahead and skip this place.

Breakfast is included in the nightly rate, however the milk was spoiled, which is why I left a 1 star rating for staff and service. The housekeeping was really friendly and helpful, though after cleaning the room there was a smell of wet mop that lingered for hours. The motel is overall well lit and clean, though not particularly nice (holes in the blackout material of the curtains, burnt out light bulb in room, peeling paint on the doors).

Dirty Bedbug infested slum of a motel...disgusting

This was one of the WORST motel rooms I have ever stayed in. The room was filthy,the mattress was completely infested with BED BUGS, and the clerk AND the "manager" were both completely useless to help in any way whatsoever. Do not stay here unless you want to spend hundreds more on cleaning all your belongings and medical bills for bug bites

Crappiest coastal stay so far

Rooms are nothing like advertised. Towels sheets and showers were dirty. Electrical sockets hanging out of the wall and takes a whole century for the water to turn hot in the shower and sink. The complimentary breakfast is and insult no compliment basically its a selection of cheap junk food. This hotel was the worst part of my family trip and the next time i visit Port Lavaca i most definitely will not stay at the chaparral!

Room does not have amenities listed on their site. Wall plug hanging out of the wall. Floor was dirty. Non smoking room with burn holes in covers. Bathtub had black hair still in it. Sheets were stained. Room had a musty smell. Not a good deal for the price we paid. Very run down and if the room would have been refundable, we would have cancelled as soon aa we saw the location. More worker oriented and not family oriented. The lady at the front desk that had to give me the hairdryer was nice.
