We went to Corpus Christi, September 3-5 2011 to be married and spend our honeymoon. :) Luckily for us found a great deal at the Extended Stay through Hotel.com. It only cost us around $60 a night. So definitely a good place for couples on a budget. Now if your expecting the Hilton, then this place isn't for you. However we found the hotel staff to be very friendly and helpful. The location is great especially if you need to get to island as we needed to. And our room was nice, clean, and spacious. The best way to describe our room is picture a small 1 bedroom loft. Another great thing about Extended Stay is having a full kitchen. Yes a full-size refrigerator, stove, oven, micro-wave, and cabinets. They even had a few plates, glasses, and silverware. Now for us only being there 3 days it's not a big deal, but if you plan on staying in a room for two weeks or more it is especially nice to have kitchen instead of eating out every day.


Now there was only one small bad thing about Extended Stay. You can hear your neighbors from time to time. Nothing major just foot steps and can hear people talk. My husband and I however are used to it since we live in an apartment and the small noise factor did not bother us. But for some people they may not like it. Extended Stay did have some breakfast items, such as fruit, bagels, and muffins but not a contential breakfast buffet. Those are really the only two things that some people may frown upon. For my husband and I though we thought it was a wonderful hotel. We would definitely stay there again next time we go to Corpus Christi.

A very nice place to stay, the afternoon staff was soo friendly and very helpful to us, in pickiing places to dine!!! the only thing I found dirty, was the top of the refrigartor, hasnt been cleaned in awhile, Other than that, It was clean!!!!!!

I was greeted as if I were family at the Extended Stay Deluxe! They made sure that I was quickly checked in and answered any questions I had about the hotel.

My husband and I spent 2 nights here, July 18 & 19. I called to see if we could check in early and was told that there was no one at the desk. Okay, this is a motel right? Shouldn't someone be at the desk? Well, apparently not. They have a sign they put on the desk saying they are away from the desk and will return shortly. So if you need something, you are out of luck.
The carpet is worn and dingy. Our room was okay but smelled faintly of smoke, ick. Above our bed where the smoke alarm should have been, there were just wires dangling. One of the lamps was missing a light bulb, and the battery in the kitchen clock was dead. They did replace the battery in the clock but we never did get a lightbulb or a smoke alarm. Is it a law that motel rooms must have alarms?
The second day of our stay, I dropped our towels off at the front desk and was told I could get clean ones later that afternoon. No daily maid service. We returned about 4 o'clock and were given towels but there were no washcloths available. Never did get any washcloths. How can you have a motel and not have enough washcloths???
Went to the pool that afternoon. It is very small, te chairs were dirty, and the water in the pool was unpleasantly warm. The pool was not too clean either.
We stayed here because we were told that the Residence Inn, where we usually stay, was doing some renovations, and there might be noise and some areas would not be accessible. I will stay at the Residence Inn from now on, no matter what they are doing. It is clean and very nice.
