Our stay at the Catalina Motel was simple and convenient. The rooms weren’t the greatest, but you definitely get what you pay for. The location was perfect for the Beach to Bay race and made everything super easy. The owner was very nice and welcoming, which we appreciated. Overall, a good budget-friendly stay if you’re looking for something close to the action.

It's clean and roomy. Everything works, but I couldn't find the light switch for the kitchenette (maybe bulb was burned out) or the hi fan switch on the ac. However, it's not for staying in all the time. It's by the beach, so for a place sleep at night, it's petfect.

Cleaning staff was pleasant. The rooms smelled like mold and did not smell nice. The shower curtains look as those they’re old and never get washed. The floors are not even, broken in plenty of places. Has bugs in the room. But if you’re looking for cheap, you get what you pay for here.

My husband and I booked this motel as a last minute spontaneous mini-trip to the bayfront of Corpus Christi. It looked like a good deal for a cute old school motel. It was okay, there were no bugs, no roaches and clean. The bed was comfortable (pillows not really but not bad either). The hot water worked great and the bathroom and tub were clean. It's an outdated, old motel with a lot of structural issues but overall it
