“Great Inn”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 October 2011

Overall the inn was a great place to stay. The staff were helpful. Whenever we check into a hotel, we check out the toilets, tub, sink, and TV. We noticed that the toilet didn't flush all the way so they moved us to another room. The bathroom sink is separate from the bathroom which we found convenient. We liked the counter space which was sufficient to hold our personal items. The breakfast area was large and we enjoyed the great breakfast of waffles, toast, muffins, 2 kinds of juice, biscuits with gravy, eggs, sausages, bananas, and apples----great!!
They also offered a popcorn snack with soda in the afternoons.

“Overall quality for the price”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 August 2011

This is our 2nd time to stay at the Plaza Inn in the last 3 years. They were able to match expedia's price for me over the phone, which was good. It is not a NEWER hotel, so there are minor issues like strange smells in the hallways, patched holes in the bathroom door, etc. Seems to be a popular place for blue collar workers in the oil industry on weekdays, as the parking lot was full of work trucks. But overall, we enjoyed our stay. Hot breakfast each morning consisted of eggs, sausage, bicuits/gravy, and muffins or pastries of some sort. There was also the usual cereal or apples (no bananas?). It was hit or miss that the waffle maker was working each morning. The breakfast staff also didn't seem too concerned with replinishing the muffins or juice machines after 8:30 (breakfast ends at 9:30). Get there by 8am if you want a full selection of breakfast items.

Our family likes to sleep in until about 10 and head to the beach around noon. Only problem with that is the cleaning staff only checks our floor before 11am. Despite putting the Maid Service Requested sign on the door the first 2 nights, we would return in the evenigns to find the room was never touched. So we had to go get towels, shampoo, etc from the desk each night.

The outdoor pool was well maintained though and is open until 10pm each evening. Also has a small exercise room with 1 treadmill and one eliptical machine. It was nice to get a workout in at a lower priced hotel. We will probably stay there again enxt year, as we are not very picky about the minor issues, as long as we get a good night's sleep.

“Great weekend trip”

i booked here for the free breakfast. Its alot farther from the beach than I thought (thats my only complaint) They have free dinner AND drinks in the afternoon, and a complete hot breakfast. Staff is really friendly, rooms are nice. They even gave me the Orbitz rate, even though I didn't book through Orbitz. We're already planning our next trip back.

“Good place to stay for business”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 June 2011

I stayed here in February for about eight days while on a job in CC. Bed was comfortable and the staff was very friendly. I would recommend this hotel for those on a budget.

“Decent for the price, a little scruffy”

The room was acceptably clean but everything could use a good updating. I suppose it's a good value for the price but would not be my first choice on visits to Corpus in the future.
