We were in town for business and a little beach time. The location is nicely situated near several chain restaurants (Outback, BJ’s, Chuys), Check in we were greeted so warmly! Crystal is the star talent of the property. So friendly and hospitable. The hotel has a clean, modern and youthful feel. They have a bar, live entertainment at night, pool table and spacious lounge space for meetings. Our room was quiet and on the top floor. We travelled with our two pugs and they were kindly welcomed and even given a bag of biscuits each day.it’s of good space to take them to do their own “biz meetings” . The room was spacious and thoughtfully designed with loads of cubby holes and ample closet space to keep things tidy. Bathroom shower did seem to have a leaking problem. We had to place towels all over the floor. Enjoyed having a coffee maker, sage and microwave. Sleep: quiet room facing south. AC Unit was a wall type and didn’t blow constantly- it would turn on and off through the night and was quite loud. Great gym facility! Pool was clean and grounds were well kept. And only 15 minutes to our fave spot on whitecap beach to soak up sun after our meetings were done. Will add this our Corpus list. Final props to the amazing staff. Such good people!!
I arrived at this hotel and immediately encountered refurbishing work in progress. The front desk area was chaotic, with workers on the floor directly in front of thr Front Desk and it was unclear where guests should go. A woman behind the counter ignored me, leaving me confused until one of the workers directed me to the side of the counter. Surprisingly, the same woman who had been ignoring me then greeted me. I thought it was odd that she hadn't beckoned me over. The room itself was disappointing. As soon as I opened the door, I was hit by a strong moldy smell. The ceiling had large brown blotches, some of which were partially painted over. The AC unit worked but had a large rust patch on it. There was a hole in the ceiling and white unidentified splash marks on the bed frame. The bedside table was broken, and the pillows, though in clean cases, lacked protectors and were stained yellow. Due to the ongoing refurbishments I assumed the room was mistakenly given to me thinking it was completed, so i took some pictures and went back to the reception. The receptionist, ”Jenny or Janine,” was not interested in seeing the photos and informed me she would only move me once. Her attitude suggested that providing an acceptable room was somehow my responsibility. And she would not be inconvenienced by it. This was a work trip, so I decided to check out her ”take it or leave it” offer and deal with it later. The next room was slightly better, though the pillows still lacked protectors. A quick trip to Walmart solved that issue. The receptionist could definetly benefit from additional training. I would not recommend staying here, at least not during their renovation period.
CCamdaOlder property in need of renovation. Breakfast one of the poorest we have had (Platinum member so stayed at many Towneplace) in terms of selection. Pool nice but no towels provided so had to ask reception both times we used. Staff friendly and helpful. Computer in lobby not working as wanted to print something. My husband slipped in bath- no mat provided and very slippery. Really object to being charged $3.87 + tax a night for parking. Why? Not a prime location. No need and greedy. Could at least waive for Platinum. Property on a very busy road.
Very nice staff and great value have stay here many times very little issues. Great location near tge beach and shops. We alway cone once a year for a week and this is where we stay. My family uses Truhilton a lot.
The rooms are very spacious, very clean, the staff is welcoming & always have smiles on their faces! Very attentive! Breakfast was good, coffee was always hot even during the day! Pool was great, the hot tub didn’t seem to bubble as much aa hoped for but still great! Absolutely loved it, will be returning back for sure!
BBrandy LSTAY ELSEWHERE!!! I never write reviews, but felt it was important so others don’t waste their money. The outside and lobby are deceiving. Once you turn down the hall is when the truth comes out. The halls smell musty. The elevator floor was chipped bad. We entered our first room and the main light in the bathroom was out. I let the front desk know. They moved us to a different room because the maintenance man was not there to put a new bulb. The new room was subpar and filthy. You could see smudges on the headboard where the clean pillows were leaning against it. There was a layer of dust buildup on the shelf below the sink. The curtains were torn. There was a good sized sticky spot on the carpet. The light bulb in the lamp was missing. There was writing on the furniture. The lid on the tank of the toilet didn’t even fit that toilet. You could hear everything going on in the rooms and hallway. The towels looked and felt to be about twenty years old. (No exaggeration) They were faded and rough. On the second day I passed by the laundry room and requested fresh towels and wash cloths. They said they didn’t have any clean ones but got our room number and said they would deliver some when they have some. I was about to enter my room and saw a housekeeper a few doors down with a load of fresh towels, so I asked her for some. She would only give me two towels. I let her know that I booked the room for four people and needed four towels. She refused to give them to me and told me to take it up with the front desk. The only reason I ended up with four towels is because the nice lady in laundry kept her word and delivered the towels I requested earlier. The hotel staff (other than the nice laundry lady) and management do not care about the customer. If they did then these problems would not still be going on. Read the previous reviews from 2023. Those customers were complaining about how filthy the place is and management replied to their reviews stating that they appreciated their feedback and take it seriously. They do not. Nothing has been done to remedy the issues. This place is filthy. It needs new management, lots of deep cleaning and updating. I added photos. I hope they come out clear and you are able to zoom in to see the details.
Room was clean and AC work well. Pool and hot tub were ok. Older hotel, but very reasonable. Only issue is small TV. No breakfast but has free coffee in lobby. Good location- not too far to beac and close to several restaurants. Whataburger next door too.
