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.

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.

The property is run down. Terrible. First room was filthy stained and hairs on bed. Walls are rugged and paint is chipped everywhere. Pool is dirty and closed. Doors don’t lock properly and can’t put chair to guard because they open outwards. I felt unsafe. DO NOT STAY HERE.

Loved the proximity of the beach. Literally right next to Blackbeard’s. Free parking. Texas-shaped waffles for breakfast. The only real problem I had was there was about two seconds of hot water when I showered the first night, and after talking with staff about it the next day, they said they’d address it and if it happened again, they could switch me to a different room. She was very nice and polite. There were no water temperature issues the next day. The floor in the room had some sand, but it didn’t bother me too much because of the price point and closeness to the beach. Also, the coffee maker still had a coffee pod in it, but these things aren’t enough to turn me away. It’s not a 5-star hotel, but it was quiet and close to food and the beach, which is exactly what I wanted. I’d stay here again.

It’s not at all with the picture show. But from the time we pulled up in the parking lot, the maintenance man was so helpful. He led me to the front where I could have the lady walk me through the room to see if it looked different from the outside and it did. The maintenan man then proceeded to help us get our stuff out of the vehicle help my grandmother up the stairs just made this day so much easier! There need to be more people like him in the world.! the staff was all friendly. Anything we needed they were there to help.! great place to sit on the balcony and watch their wave roll in!

The only thing could I can say nice is in the front desk friendly and the sheets were actually clean. A very nasty broke downdown motel with questionable looking people all around bad bad odor leaks, opening in the bathroom ceiling cast the stains on the drapes, drapes were torn. The balcony porch was just as bad trying on the front door did not lock. Bathroom door did not close. The pictures are fake, it looks nothing like that. It should be condemned and we did find out that it had been closed down, and if it was open, it had to be within the last 7 days. Open utility rooms no security of any kind. We got scammed, so we had to spend the first night there and we got out of there. First thing, that next morning

This hotel is nothing like it was advertised. I knew there was an issue when neither myself nor the agent at Expedia could reach the hotel by phone or by email, prior to us arriving there. The pictures are not from that hotel. It was filthy!The carpet was sticky from God knows what. The bathroom was disgusting and there was no bathtub, just a nasty shower. No breakfast is offered. The new owners decided not to do breakfast for guests any longer. The pool was green and we couldn’t use it. The tv did not work. The man working there told us that all of the tvs either didn’t work or worked very poorly. I hope this review helps save someone else’s vacation. Do not book this hotel unless you wish for a miserable time. When you are excited by the price of a hotel directly on the beach, remember, you get what you pay for! I recommend you keep scrolling when you stumble across this hotel. It was absolutely disgusting!

First the saying “you get what you pay for” applies here. The hotel seems rundown. The first sign was the shredded curtain. when headed to my room one of the guys that cleans the room was loudly complaining about having to clean the rooms. in the shower no washcloth and mold starting to develop in shower. I also got a room for my sister and nephew. The bedding on one bed was washed - it was still damp. At night that was the worst. Very noisy. The walls are thin- can hear the people that argue at 1am and other people by the pool. when people go in and of their rooms they have to slam doors to get it to latch otherwise the door can easily be pushed open. I seriously debated whether or not to sleep in my car. Other than that the pool is clean, front desk was courteous. I know they just work there.
