Bathroom had mold and definitely looks structurally unstable, great location on beach should invest and renovate.

Beware! It's falling down!

The building is old and rough in places, but the room and the beds were comfortable. The outer stairs are kind of terrifying to carry a suitcase up, so definitely use the ones by the office for that! The employees we interacted with were great and very helpful. A good value for the cost and the view can’t be beat!

Rooms were very clean. Located in a very good area. I just wish the water pressure was better, and to update the shower head. Other that that, experience was great.

This hotel is in terrible condition and in desperate need of upkeep and repair. The room had live ants all over the floor. The room appeared to not have been vacuumed. The box spring mattress was stained and gross looking. We asked to check out for a refund due to the condition of the hotel. The manager was rude and refused to assist us or approve the check out and refund. We had to come back the next day to talk to the owner for a refund. The owner approved a refund of 4 out of 6 days. We did not even stay 1 night but had to forfeit 2 nights.

This motel is an absolute dump in a remote rundown area that was under construction for the new bridge. It was seriously disgusting and depressing and was nothing like what I thought it would be. My husband and two adult children were appalled especially my daughter. Luckily we had a friend in Corpus Christi that we were able to stay with the second night. So we swallowed the cost. The $180/night was an absolute joke regardless of whether it was Memorial Day or not.

While it's not a fancy place, it is a nice spot for what we needed. It was easy access to the beach and allowed for us to go back and forth to our room with our child who has medical needs. We would stay here again for the convenience.
