Our stay at The Plaza at North Beach in Corpus Christi was honestly all about the location and vibes. The rooms were alright, nothing super fancy, but having a view of the beach made it relaxing and worth it. The beach access was beautiful and super convenient. We loved being within walking distance to cute bars and restaurants, and having the USS Lexington right there was such a cool bonus. The area felt fun, friendly, and perfect for a beach weekend getaway.

This motel is in the process of being renovated after years of neglect by previous owners. So be aware of ongoing construction. The staff is courteous, the pool is nice, location by beach isIt's nice for a one great but, it is lacking usual amenities – rooms are small and musty, breakfast is a pot of coffee, suggest bring your own pool towels. It's OK for a one-star inn.

It’s going through development so there’s a lot of fixing that they’re doing. It’s a decent place to stay and mostly it was the shower that was a bit grungy. Otherwise, not a bad location and it’s a place to leave your stuff.

The fact that this hotel is right on the beach is awesome! The staff was very helpful. The hotel needs a lot of updating. The a/c took a long time to cool, in fact it didn’t cool until nighttime. I will stay again due to the location and the staff but only if they do a lot of repairs on the property.

Great location but it’s an older hotel. Clean rooms but furniture out of date. Tv screen was scattered and hard to see anything. Mold in some places. Sheets and towels were clean. Our fridge didn’t work and the water didn’t get hot. Okay stay for the price.

The property was run down it smelled old and mildewed . The carpet felt sticky and the bedsheets looked like they weren’t changed. The staff was friendly but I didn’t ask to change rooms cause I figured they would all look and smell the same. They definitely need a remodel.

Absolutely appalling in regards to cleanliness. The front door did not have a secondary lock that was working. The outside pool area smelled of urine. And the vagrants that were lingering were obviously on illicit drugs. The atmosphere at this facility was very concerning and I would not recommend this even the people I disliked.
