“Stayed overnight. Great price. Location was close to the highway and it was easy to get access to the beaches. Staff was very friendly. I had medicine that needed to be refrigerated and they let me store it in the fridge before check in. Place was very quiet. Only 4 star rating was because the water pressure was low and the shower curtain was kinda short so water kept getting on the bathroom floor. Hot water was decent for 4 people taking back to back showers. Would stay again :)”

“I had a great experience staying here. The beds are comfortable, the room is clean. I must point out that the parking lot is very well lit, makes you feel more secure. The area is quiet, that's always a plus. My only complaint would be about the water pressure in the shower. There is hardly enough pressure. Other than that, I would recommend staying here.”

“I stayed here the first week of July 2022 after the 4th. It was perfect. Seriously. The man at the front desk (I can't remember his name) was really patient with me and very caring. That's a huge deal to me. First impressions are everything. The room was perfect too. The AC was already on and running (I got to Corpus Christi around 2am. It was extremely humid and the air was really sticky) so the room was at a very comfortable temperature. The beds were perfect. Not too hard. Pillows were nice, clean and soft. No sign of bed bugs, roaches or anything like that. The bathrooms were extra clean! They also monitor parking, so that is a good thing too. This motel is literally down the street from the Selena Museum, so for those of you who are big on Selena (this guy definitely is!), it's the perfect location! And the rates were pretty good as well. There are some decent food places too. I like the coziness of it. Whenever I come back to Corpus Christi, the Texan Hotel is definitely no. 1 on my list of places to stay! Thanks for everything, Texan!”

“A friend and I stayed at this hotel for a few days while staying in Corpus Christi. Initially we were a bit apprehensive because the area didn't look the best. The rooms are actually very nice and decorated very pretty. The rooms are clean and spacious. They are affordable and didn't break the bank. The owners are really kind and respectful. We almost didn't stay because of how run down the area looks. It seems though, that Corpus Christi hasn't done much beautifying in many areas. The location of this hotel was perfect for the few days we were in town for. Would recommend.”

“Coming from out of town you just hope you book a nice room. Especially when not familiar with area. Hands down I picked a good place. Pulled up, looked nice on the outside. Check in with no hassle with calling prior and putting room on hold with credit card. Love how the parking lot is right in front of all rooms to see. Walked in room and WOW!!! It was nice. The bedding, colors of the room, the restroom perfect size and just cozy. The price was a good deal for my budget. When going back I will be booking here again.”
