    It would have been nice to have coffee facilities in the room but it is just a short walk to the lobby to get some. Body lotion would have been a welcome addition to the toiletries provided.

    Great welcome from the owners who were friendly and couldn’t do more for their guests. The location is fine although a bit of a walk downtown. However, parking was not a problem downtown.

    The room was clean and comfortable. Del Rio is a noisy city, and the hotel's shape created a little quiet oasis. The owners were very friendly.

    The bathroom fan was very noisy.

    The staff were friendly and extremely helpful. The electronic lock on one of our rooms had a problem, but the woman from the desk came up immediately to replace the battery. Room amenities were above average for a motel in this price range.

    The breakfast was extremely minimal, and frankly, the coffee was so bad, both myself & my partner poured it down the drain. Could use another chair or two around the pool.

    Room was fine. Could have used a coffee pot & coffee, but I understand why motels don't. Nice that some finger food & coffee was available during most hours. Owner & employees are super nice! Room was pretty quiet considering the proximity to a main street.

    Great Value for a Friendly Motel

    The bathroom shower was a combination glass shower door and curtain, just kind of odd. Some parts of the hotel seem like they have been renovated, but other parts are well-loved (like the shower door combo). The patterned bedspread worked like camouflage to hide little bits (the patchwork carpet wasn’t much better) - prefer hotels that don’t use bedspreads that look like they may or may not be laundered on a regular basis.

    Very friendly & helpful staff. Great value for a decent motel. We could park right in front of our room. Parking is mostly out of sight from the street so the room didn’t have street noise either.

    We were exasperated and tired and when we saw an old hotel, we wondered what we had gotten into. We had gotten into a friendly smile from the gentleman at the desk, a quick check in, and a clean room and comfortable bed. Whispering Palms was the perfect end to a really rotten day and I look forward to staying there again.

    The staff here is tremendous. We had a slight issue when we checked into the room, and they fixed it immediately by moving us to another room. The hotel itself has been nicely updated on the exterior, including some unexpectedly modern colors. The room itself was fine, although the Direct TV had been disconnected. Once I found the end of the cable, it was easy to fix. Shower was good, bed was comfortable, breakfast was the expected cereal/packaged pastries/apples/bananas and do-it-yourself, Texas-shaped waffles. Pool was a bit cool, but it is early in the summer.
