The room we were in had damage from a roof leak. It had been repaired but plaster fell from the cieling onto the bed. This was reported to staff, no option offered. The next morning it rained and water started dripping onto the bed. I reported this also and they said we’ll send maintenance right away. We declined as we were showering to leave. I moved the mattress away from its base and used trash cans, ice bucket, and cups to catch the now multiple leaks. When we checked out staff was very apologetic, but we were offered no form of compensation for the inconvenience. We also were told the property sustained damage earlier this year in another storm. Staff knew there might be a problem but put us in the room anyway. The staff was very courteous and apologetic but….. why, if you know the forcast is for heavy rain, do you put a guest in a room likely to leak!!!?!?

Our room on the third floor had a fairly musty smell which didn’t seem too bad at first but became overpowering during the night. Don’t quite understand why no plastic or paper cups are in the rooms for brushing teeth or an occasional drink of water. This can’t be much of an expense.
- 3/5
Breakfast was good. Outside front door was littered with cigarette butts maybe because there were no butt buckets. Second floor had a laundry room. The washing machine was so musty smelling the smell was in the hallway and even the elevator. Room was ok but when we arrived we had no hand towels. Window shade was not working properly and ripped on the bottom. Front desk help were very nice. Very helpful and breakfast lady did a great job

They said breakfast went from 7-11 but they had it closed right about 10. They told me once they run out they closed which wasn't explained when I checked in

The location is also very convenient. Most places we wanted to visit were only about 5–10 minutes away and the beach was around a 20 minute drive. Overall we had a very comfortable and enjoyable experience. I'd definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!!

The breakfast was great, except the pancake machine was not working during our stay. The hotel itself is in a perfect area of Corpus Christi, great location! Our bathroom could have been a bit cleaner and i was the pancake machine worked or that they had a waffle maker.

We had a late arrival at 8:30 pm and the 1st room we were assigned was not clean so we were assigned another room which was fine. There were no carts for luggage when we arrived. The attendant said he needed to make a run to the other floors to see if he could bring some down. But even at check out we never saw any. The a/c made a lot of noise during the night but we didn't complain. It's just that we used to stay at Hampton Inn in Corpus but after an incident with them, we started staying at this Holiday Inn. It was fine the 1st 2 visits but this 3rd one has us thinking we may need to look at another hotel. We spent almost $500 for 2 nights. Disappointing.

The swimming pool was also not available due to maintenance issues, but the staff did offer to access the pool at the adjacent hotel. Our biggest issue was that we were served with not-so-well maintained accommodations. The continental breakfast was fine, beds were comfortable with clean linens, and the staff was very courteous and helpful, but for a high-rated hotel, we expected a nicer room with a nicer, fully functioning bathroom at minimum.

Breakfast was great! The breakfast area was well maintained and serviced. The manager that evening assured me that motorcycle parking could be secured if I reserved ahead of time and that I could use the lower floor/room to keep and eye on my motorcycle. The toilet was not up to par but the issue was quickly resolved. There were no cups available but we were given four upon request from the office.

Staff lied about whether my room would be available when I called twice to let them know I would be arriving very late due to work in San Angelo taking longer than expected. The front desk made it seem perfectly simple to re-activate my reservation.

Location was fine. We arrived at midnight and saw the room was not clean. The air smelt damp, crumbs of food on the floor and on the bed, the toilet handkerchief was broken. Worst of all, there was a drop of blood on the bathroom floor. I was so disgusted that I decided against having breakfast in that facility!!!

Staff, specially the cleaning staff, were very helpful. The beds are were very comfortable. Walking into the hotel the trashcan outside was full of trash, and the front door was loud. Floor was wet around the lobby because of the pool.
- 3/5
Rooms were old & outdated. Beds/pillows were comfortable. Bathrooms weren’t that good of condition, especially the tub shower. The AC unit leaked so I was moved to a new room that smelled like mildew & that bathtub was even worse condition than the 1st one. And there was a random dirty blue towel hanging up in that room they moved us to. Most of the staff was pleasant & helpful. Stains on the floor of the new room. The complimentary breakfast was mediocre.

Our bathroom lacked one of the two lights, the entry door sagged and rubbed at the top, the shower drain was somewhat slow, and there were no complimentary cups available in the room but the staff was quick to give us the cups. Good location right off SPI Boulevard.
- 1/5
Room was dirty… soaked in water damage from a previous storm or ac damage. Sheets and white comforter has a blood smudge on them. Booked for hot tub… was not working nor did they tell us when we checked in. Manager literally expected us to stay in a room that needed maintenance. We were baffled he made the excuse that they ac needed maintenance but yet felt comfortable charging us full price. No one offered to move us either. Poor job all around…

Clean room and no issues with guests or staff. Peaceful stay!

The blinds were broken and I couldn’t sleep with the parking lot lights getting to the room

Very good location. Hot breakfast was good. Outdated. Room smelt old and musty that they were obviously trying to cover up with some other weird scent. Bed was comfortable but did not smell clean. Paint on walls and window sills was chipped and there was a hole in the ceiling above the bed. Maybe for a camera. The shower had very little pressure.
- 4/5
The only parts that were just average were our actual room appearance and the selection of items for breakfast. Our room had stains on the carpet, bare white walls (no decorations or framed art prints), and the pillows weren't that great. We were there for 2 breakfast mornings, and on both mornings, the eggs were not hot (just kinda warm), and we were hoping for bacon on 1 of the 2 mornings, but all they had was turkey sausage patties both days. The potatoes and omelets were just ok. We would have liked more selection in the pastry / muffins container. We've had better selections at other Holiday Inn Express locations.

The inside pool was bad idea

The staff was great and they helped us the best they could. The hotel itself needed some repairs. There was damage in the dining room and in our hotel room and the faucets weren’t working well. Our room had so much moisture in the floor that you felt very sticky. Seemed that maybe at some point the air conditioner or a pipe in the bathroom leaked all under the carpet and was never properly handled. Finally the lounge chair in our room had a potentially biological residue all over it. Again the staff was great and the food was good but the room and condition of the hotel was less than par.
- 5/5
Great property will stay again in the future.

This hotel was a complete BUST! We booked this property because it was advertised as having a pool and hot tub. While those amenities were present, neither could be used as the water was ICE cold. As someone from Minnesota, we swim in cold water most of the year and it was far too cold for us. The "fitness center" was so hot inside, it was hard to breathe. The rooms were ok, at best. Lots of repairs needed. Continental breakfast, another joke. I was really looking forward to a nice place to lay our heads during a road trip; this was NOT the place. The guy who checked us in was kind, and that is my only compliment.

Overall the place and parking felt safe and the staff was nice. I didn’t like how I reserved for 5 guest and there was only 2 towels. The couch bed did not have any sheets and had to go ask for some at the receptionist. Then the cleaning service said to give the dirty towels and they will wash and drop off more later. We never got more towels when I went to ask the receptionist they said they were out of towels. The breakfast was also not great. Pancake machine was not working and not many options.

The location is 15 to the airport and 15 minutes in the other direction to Mustang Island . The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The hotel is dated and the a/c was rusted and the bathroom was in bad need of caulking but I guess that’s normal for a beach town. You could stick a book in the opening between the door and door jam , the door looked too small but overall, it suited our needs!

Very clean and well maintained property. Staff very nice.

Low water pressure, which I was looking forward to a good hot shower. Breakfast good have been so much better for being a IHG. But in the other hand hotel was clean and bed was very comfortable.

The heated pool was freezing cold and the hot tub was out of order. Breakfast was a disappointment- no milk, no yogurt, no fruit, no boiled eggs, no waffles, and the juice tasted awful. I just was shocked. Apparently customer service has gone downhill. I will not be staying at a holiday inn or holiday inn express anytime in my future.

This property has serious problems!! It is NOT like the other IHG properties!! A week before our trip we requested interconnecting rooms, Trisha said she would write it down in the notes. Unfortunately we were not granted our request. We asked again at check-in, we were ignored! We shrugged it off and just let it go. We stayed at the property for 4 nights. Day1- we return to our room that evening and the room was not cleaned at all!! No clean towels, trash in containers from not being emptied, beds not made, etc. We talked with Joe the person in charge that evening ( behind the counter) we asked him if rooms get cleaned everyday he said “Yes”. We complained to him that no one had cleaned our room. He apologized and said he was sending an email to the housekeeping department. He got us fresh towels. Day2- Room was semi clean Day3-Room was not cleaned again! Trash was not emptied. We had to go ask for clean towels again from Joe. So frustrating!! Day4- Check out day. No one at the front desk, we found this to be very odd! Because that’s when the manager was going to be available. Breakfast was a let down!! Horrible experience, we will not go back to this location. This location fell way below the standards of Holiday Inn Express!

Yes the Hotel felt neglected. This place is starting to look neglected and showing signs of disrepair and lack of maintenance. Room 204, the thermostat on the wall no longer works. The bathroom door is hard to close. It scraps the floor and has water damage to the bottom of the door. The shower looks dirty and dingy. Mildew on the shower ceiling and around the bottom of shower pan. There is rust on the window AC/Heat unit. The pool hot tub was broken...freezing cold. The pool looks bad..... When I walked in the front counter guy was on the phone with someone having problems with the toilet not flushing. When the elevator is coming down and going up you hear " fluids running" maybe water. I then took the stairs. I'm not staying here again.

Next, the place was not very clean. There was dark mold growing along the base of the shower. There was a belly up dead roach on the floor at the breakfast area. The breakfast choices were skimpy compared to other Holiday Inn Express locations. No yogurt in the mini fridge and the milds in there were not very cold. The hallways were hot, stuffy, and uninviting. The AC was noisy. All in all, I will avoid this location if I travel to Corpus Christi again unless they fix these issues
