AVID Hotels Corpus Christi - Portland by IHG

I really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The price was very reasonable. The room we stayed in was quite small, but we didn’t need much space. The bed was a wide, comfortable king size, and everything was spotlessly clean — it felt like the hotel had been recently renovated. The TV was large, and there were plenty of toiletry bottles: body wash, shampoo, hand soap, conditioner, body lotion… all from Dove, a brand I like and that’s not among the cheapest. I also really liked the breakfast — there were eggs, roasted potatoes in small chunks, oatmeal, pork patties, a wide variety of breads and pastries, three types of muffins, fruits, muesli, yogurts, coffee, and juice. The coffee machines looked new and served Costa Coffee, which is not something you usually see in hotels at this price point. I was pleasantly surprised. My husband was a little disappointed that there weren’t any waffles at breakfast, but he was still happy because there were plenty of other good options. The Wi-Fi worked perfectly, and so did the AC. The hallways and elevators were clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. The parking lot is large, and we had no issues finding a spot. I also liked the location — close to a movie theater and a few great places to eat, like a steakhouse and a poke bowl restaurant. A special thank-you to Kristian for providing tools and helping us out when our car wouldn’t start in the morning — we really appreciated it🙏🏻

Me and my two kids went for my daughter's softball tournament. Lots of girls from many different high-schools where there and the 1st night we got put under a group of girls who literally jumped and bounce all night and morning. The staff moved us without hesitation so we'd sleep better on night 2. Staff was very friendly, breakfast was delicious asd the place was very comfy and clean.

This hotel is very ergonomic. For instance there was a small shelf in the shower so a woman could shave her legs. (first time I’ve ever seen that!) There is no closet. But there are hangers, hooks and places to hang your clothes. There is also no dressers but instead cubbies where you can store shoes, or other items. Then it’s easy to see when you get ready to leave (I’ve left stuff in hotel drawers, ugh) Toiletry items attached to the walls in the shower. NO ONE is gonna put something in them (read previous review by someone paranoid about that) and it reduces the little plastic shampoo/conditioner bottles, along with unused soaps. The breakfast is very basic continental but was good. They have coffee/tea service 24 hrs! Even cold and sparkling water dispenser so you can get good water. And the room rate was very reasonable. Some sports teams were there and you could not hear them on our floor so really quiet hallways. The bedrooms were tiled which was nice because sometimes I get allergens from the carpet. Especially since most hotels don’t shampoo their carpets often. But the best part was the friendliness of the staff!!! Front desk very organized and efficient. Maid service very hard working and friendly.

I SO LOVED THE STAY @ AVID, SO CLEAN AND STAFF WAS FRIENDLY!! EVERYONE SAID HELLO AS WE WALKED DOWN THE HALL WAYS. THEY EVEN ASKED IF WE NEEDED ANYTHING . COFFEE ALL DAY AND BREAKFAST IN THE MORNING WAS EXCEPTIONAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Booking was easy. Location was convenient. Staff was friendly. Accommodations were good.
