“Excellent Experience”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 September 2011
1
person found this review helpful

I had to work on the Island for a week, and picked the right hotel. This property is clean, and comfortable. My room has a vaulted ceiling which makes it feel like home. Free internet, fridge, and comfortable bed. The staff was cordial and the breakfast was better than eating at the restaurant (eggs, kolachies, biscuits and gravy, waffles, and fruit. Of course, coffee, milk and juice.) Didn't get a chance to swim, but the pool is clean.

I will return soon. Keep up the good work.

Sincerely,

Cesar

“Great experience "On the Island"”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 September 2011

Originally chose this hotel for proximity to the beach and to be honest to keep expenses down. I was pleasantly surprised to find the rooms spacious and clean with vaulted ceilings. Pool was great, well maintained. Breakfast included biscuits and gravy as well as a kolache along with usual fruits, waffles, etc. Management was very helpful pointing out local dining and helped us with every thing we needed. Parking available for trailer which is very useful when you have your boat along!

“Great Savior From Dirty Hotels!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 July 2011

This place came as a huge relief as clean hotels are hard to find in southern Texas. The owner happened to be on site for most of our stay, and he was very polite and informative. They have a nice pool, free computer/internet usage, and warm breakfast in the morning. Also, the beds have a nice thick pillowtop. This is a nice place to stay if you are looking for a clean, quiet, and comfortable place but don't want to pay for a lot of extra frills. Would definately stay again.

“Restroom problems and poor service.”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 June 2011

We spent two nights here as we have done a few times before in the past, but we will not stay again. First problem was middle of the night I had an emergency restroom run and after finishing my business the toilet would not flush. I had to go down to the lobby after a few minutes to see if I could borrow a plunger as well as use the restroom there. One restroom in the lobby was out of order and the other had no toilet paper or paper towels. The attendant at the desk couldn't find a plunger and told me that they would have to fix our toilet the next morning meaning my entire family had to go downstairs to the lobby to use the restroom in the morning. They fixed our restroom late in the morning when the maid came to clean the room. Lobby restroom never had paperwork towels put in the dispenser during our stay as well as never got cleaned. One lady that covered the morning shift at the desk was also particularly rude. She made no effort to be pleasant with at the least a smile as she went about her duties in the dining area. She had a scowl on her face the whole time and after cooking my waffle on the one iron that was working she actually grunted at me and waved her hand at me as I almost mistakenly closed it rather than leaving it open. I'll pay the extra money and stay at another hotel down the road next time we visit.

“Best Hotel Ever”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 October 2010

Thanks to Ketan Bhakta, General Manager and his staff we had the most wonderful experience of a lifetime.. What we expected to be a non eventful fishing trip turned out to be the best and most relaxed time ever. If you are in Corpus Christi, Tx and need a greaat place to stay please do yourself a favor and look up this hotel.

KB will make sure that you are taken care of. This hotel was exceptionally cleanboth the grounds and the rooms. The service was excellent. Before I retred I worked for Nabisco and traveled and stayed at some of the most expensive and highly rated hotels. Nonne can compare to the Best Western On The Island. Ask for KB and get ready for an exampallary experience Barbara Ellis, Schertz, Tx
