Best Hotels near Walmart Garden Center, Corpus Christi

This is a very nice motel, not far from anything you want to do. The rooms are clean, staff very friendly and helpful. The breakfast on the weekend is great with Texas shaped waffles. Breakfasts during the week is good. The staff went out of their way to make sure we had anything we requested!

The toilet and shower were not clean at all. Had to clean then myself. The shower had no water pressure. They charge you for parking per day but our access card did not work the entire weekend. We had to press the service button to be let every time and we got stuck out there one time when no one was at the front desk. When we let the front desk know, she did not help fix the problem she just said get a ticket and the gate will open, but that did not help we we needed to exit.

What I liked about the hotel was bottled water was given at check in along with a snack and there is a filtered water machine on the premise. The lobby has nice seating areas and there is a variety of snacks and drinks available for purchase. Breakfast is included in the morning. The work out room is pretty good. The room itself smelled musty and the floor was filthy. The walls were peeling. The display on the clock wasn't working. They have walk in showers not tubs in most rooms which is nice.

The service is average. The location of the hotel is very good. You can watch the sunrise in the morning and the moonrise in the evening. The scenery is very beautiful. There are restaurants and shops in the surrounding area, and you can walk to several small island-style parks on the seaside, as well as museums and art galleries. The coastal promenade is also very beautiful, with popular science installations that travel through the solar system, and other art installations. Convenient to the Lexington Aircraft Carrier Museum and Aquarium/Animal Conservation Center across the river. In short, if you are not asking for a sexual vacation, staying here is a good value for money.

We were in town for a last minute business meeting for my husband. The staff were extremely friendly and made me feel very welcome. They even got us in a room early so my husband could make it to work I. Time. The rooms were spotless and well stocked.

The breakfast was fantastic. The cooks kept bringing items out as soon as they were empty. Cereal bar, oatmeal bar, fruit bar, pastries, toasts, made-to-order omelets and scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, fried potatoes and pancakes. The customer service was great, however you have to ask for your room to be cleaned. The room was lacking some good old scrubbing, but that’s why I travel with my Clorox wipes. Overall, great experience!

Never before in all my years of traveling have I had an experience like my recent stay at this property. This Holiday Inn Express is about 5 minutes from Corpus Christi Downtown, in a bit of an Industrial area. We've stayed here several times and it's a nice, very clean property. We like this location because it's not in the middle of all the traffic, and not next to the beach (more traffic and higher prices). It also has freeway access which makes getting around town an absolute snap. When my wife and I pulled into the parking lot we were a little concerned that the property was closed for some reason. There wasn't a single car in sight. So very odd. We pulled under the canopy and saw the lights were indeed on, so we walked inside. A very nice young man ”Chris” greeted us and checked us in. We asked Chris why the parking lot was empty? He explained to us that the hotel ”had no guests” today. LOL, he must have seen the concern on our faces and soothed our nerves by explaining that the day after Thanksgiving is a traditionally slow day at this property. Calmed by these words we headed up to our room. Turns out we had been upgraded to a larger, corner room. Really appreciated that too. Over the next two days, we came to feel spoiled like we've never experienced. Instead of property staff appearing bored and lifeless, they made every effort to treat us well and make us feel at home. We came to know the Manager ”Lydia” and the lady that runs the breakfast buffet (which by the way was in full swing despite only the two of us eating). They all took care of us, and helped answer all our questions about where to go and what to do. I've just never, ever felt so comfortable and at home in a hotel. I didn't think it was possible to feel this way. Kudos to every single member of this team. It boggles my mind that you would be so professional, given the empty property. We never saw a single shortcut taken. My wife and I had the full Holiday Inn Express treatment, and a little extra to boot. I'm humbled to know that these good people took our comfort so seriously. I really believe that they are a credit to the entire Holiday Inn Express brand, and should all be awarded for their obvious professionalism and commitment to customer service. Every traveler should experience staff like this. I can't say enough nice things about them.

This hotel is very quiet and conveniently located so that one can access the beaches, shopping, dining, and sightseeing. Although just off a major freeway, the property is located so that it is far enough back that you rarely hear or even know that there is a large volume of traffic passing. Front desk personnel were friendly and engaging, and asked how our room was etc. Some of the furnishings in the room have seen some wear and could use replacing, but the overall quality and cleanliness were both more than acceptable. The beds and pillows were comfortable. Although we were warned when booking the room, there was a charge for parking in an open lot. After State taxes, city taxes, hotel occupancy taxes, plus a ”tourism fee,” the addition of a parking charge (non-valet and unguarded) seemed like overkill. Add the fee to the room charge and leave the patron feeling less exploited. Overall though, we were impressed enough that we will return and stay again when visiting Corpus Christi.
