I have stayed at the Staybridge Suites in Corpus Christi multiple times over the past year when travelling to the area for business and am always impressed by the friendliness of the staff, the cleanliness of the property, and the convenience of the amenities. I am greeted by name and with a smile when I arrive and pass through the lobby, which is refreshing after a long day with often-difficult customers. The rooms and public areas are almost always spotless and I appreciate the light touch housekeeping rather than a full-fledged cleaning as it keeps the noise down. The noise level from outside is non-existent. The parking lot is patrolled and well-lit. The pool area is very modern and well-kept. The business center has a working printer and two workstations. The workout room has a variety of machines and weights and is immaculate. The laundry facilities can get busy over the weekend, but it's so convenient to have free laundry and not have to dig for quarters that I don't mind waiting. The kitchen facilities in the rooms are well stocked, with dishes, glasses, silverware, pots, pans, and utensils. Salt, pepper, sugar, coffe, and tea are provided as well. The small shop next to the front desk has a variety of toiletries and offers some healthier choices along with treats.
If you are travelling for business, be warned that during spring break and Christmas time you will see a lot of families and there are times when the kids take over the pool area. Most of the year this isn't an issue, however. The pool/deck area has different areas for seating, and a really nice fountain outside to sit around, too.
Note that the tap water in Corpus Christi isn't the best-tasting out there, so purchase bottled water or bring a water filter.
