La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Corpus Christi - Portland

Had to be in town to attend to my elderly father who lives in an assisted living facility. Needed a place for the night. My usual hotel was sold out, so thought I would try the LaQuinta. What a bad idea that was! Check in went smoothly in the beginning. The young lady at the front desk was very pleasant. Went to our room. Looked at the beds and immediately saw dirt on one of the beds. It was enough that I didn’t feel comfortable staying in that room. So went back down stairs and asked for another room. The young lady (failed to get her name) said no problem. She even went the extra mile and went upstairs to make sure the room she was putting us into was good. So it took a little while, but we sat in the lobby and decided to buy a bottle of water from the cooler. Well my first tip for travelers. Bring your own water. They have Wal-mart Great Value water for sale at the hotel. Which doesn’t bother me. Water is water. But the price is what shocked me. Of course I didn’t find that out until after I opened my bottle. They charge $3 a bottle. So don’t buy there. Go to wal-mart and you can probably buy a 12 pack for less than that! Back to our room, the second room was ok. The beds were ok, though the comforter was stained. The TV was rather small for the size of the room. The bathroom was standard. The one office chair needed to be replaced. The covering was peeling and coming off. Next morning woke up to visit the breakfast buffet. Well that was on par with the rest of the visit. Did not see any employee who was taking care of the breakfast area. The counter was covered in waffle batter and debris. It was disgusting. I went ahead and made a waffle. Once my waffle was done I started to look for syrup. Well all I saw was sugar free. So I had to go to the front desk to find any employees. Asked someone if they had any regular syrup. The woman went to go ask someone. So she came back to the breakfast area and started to look through the cabinets. Well she didn’t find any. I mentioned how disgusting the counters were. She agreed and just walked off. So with no syrup, I decided to leave and just grab something at McDonald’s. So my second tip for travelers, find another hotel. This place was one huge disappointment after another. And I realized why I avoid LaQuinta hotels. It never ends well for me

The rooms are clean and the bed is comfortable. After working 12-13hr days, the bar inside is an added treat. The bar has excellent staff and a decent drink selection. Lucinda is the best. Also guests get 2 free drinks. There is no better way to end a day.

Everything was amazing! Very clean, friendly and breakfast was great. Wasn’t too convinced about the pool.

Building exterior is well maintained as well as lobby. Check-in was a breeze and they have luggage dollies which was a plus. Breakfast had excellent choices and was plentiful. Room was clean and spacious. No issues with loud noises at night, etc. Checked out easily as well. Would highly recommend and stay there again.

The property and hotel are very well kept. The hotel has a modern feel when you walk in. Very recommended.

Very good stay.great staff very attentive love the happy hour great service from bartenders. This is my go to place when ever in the corpus/Portland area working. There is a good steakhouse with in walking distance and a lot more just minutes away

Stayed at this hotel for a few miserable nights. Room smelled extremely musty, sheets had some kind of stain (looks like a blood stain to me), kids running down the hallway and people slamming doors at 11 pm and continued for some time. Very noisy place so if you want to get any sleep don’t stay here. La Quinta in Rockport is much, much nicer and super friendly staff. Also, make sure when you make your reservation you check and verify the room type you asked for. I was given a king room after requesting two queens and didn’t check my email until a few days prior to my trip. When I realized it, I called to change it and was told I could cancel my reservation and rebook but at the rate that day, which was much more than when I booked it a week and a half earlier. Total scam and no help from customer service or the so called general manager. So many other options around there.
