OYO Historic Cameron Hotel Brownsville I-69E

Hotel is closed

El agua del sanitario no funcionaba Ropa de cama con mal olor

That said, there are some things people might like to know. This is a very old hotel and it doesn't seem to have ever been remodeled to any quality standard in the last 50 + years. Most furnishings are quite shabby. The pictures make it look in better shape than it is. There are no elevators. It still uses door keys. There was no deadbolt on my door. There was a chain. Of course, I only know about the room I stayed in. The hotel is old enough to have had transoms. The glass now replaced with a board and the AC vent. The very cool vintage mechanism to operate the transomes were still there! The lighting was dim in my room, which was fine by me. The night before I stayed in a place where there was no dim lighting option. Also, you can't adjust the AC. The temperature was fine for me. Which means many people will find it too warm. I stayed here because I missed my flight. I chose this in order to explore the historic part of town. Be aware half the buildings are empty. And there are mostly fairly high end restaurants and bars/clubs in the area. It seemed deserted until people started coming out for the evening. It was Saturday night. I wondered if I should be concerned about safety. But it was fine.

Front desk is super friendly, old man is very understanding and the young man is very respectful and nice, rooms are simple nothing out of control everything clean

The shower and restroom was out in the hall way,,, not in my room.

Good service

Very old building, no hotel signal, darkness, main entrance closed, cockroaches,

The location is near the MEXICAN border. The manager of the HOTEL CAMERON tried to charge me $40-USD for my early check-in when hotel policy states that early check-ins are allowed free of charge. He assigned me to a very lousy room which was somewhat filthy and roach infested, too. A very disappointing stay ?

Friendly and helpful staff, clean rooms

This place was absolutely horrible. First off it doesnt even look like a hotel, you can't even find the place. There's no sign or anything with the name. We got there and they wouldn't even let us in the doors for like 30 minutes. Then we book the room and there's roaches all over the sink. Luckily i was only staying there for like 5hrs of sleep if not i would have canceled right then and there

The shower had no hot water and the toilet didn't flush

I have to give two thumbs up for the manager. He was very knowledgeable and courteous, and was a great help on advise on other things.

Thank

Good

The location only Rooni

Unsafe

Horrible hotel, I ended up staying another hotel and the hotel manager had told me that hotel for people to pay to sleep with someone else. It was dark no lighting very scary

Unclean and unsafe. Staff not helpful, and didn't speak english

The hotel was so dirty. That I slept in my car.

Upon arriving seeing the area and the hotel, my family and I chose not to stay. The area didn’t seem safe and the hotel needs a complete renovation but you get what you pay for and I couldn’t get my money back.
