La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Corpus Christi-N Padre Isl
The staff was super excellent with me and my family. I needed nothing while there during my stay. I was forced to stay there due to a bad booking with Expedia and I was more than satisfied with the help this property gave us. We had a great vacation due to this Hotel.

Monterrey Motel Padre Island, Corpus Christi By Oyo
Don’t let the outside fool you! We were in room 101 and it was probably the cleanest room we have stayed in along the coast in a long time. No mold , no dingy smell no sand on the floor from previous guests. Will definitely stay again.
