What guests think

Regency Inn Motel by the Beach draws travelers for its budget rates and walkable North Beach location near the USS Lexington, aquarium, and restaurants, but guest experiences range widely, especially around cleanliness, maintenance, and overall comfort.

Guests often mention cold AC, simple rooms, and a few beach views. Cleanliness is inconsistent, with many complaints about stained towels and linens, strong odors, pests, and worn bathrooms, plus broken amenities like outlets, TVs, fridges, and ice machines. Service feedback is mixed, from friendly, helpful staff and quick check-ins to rude or unavailable front desk, early door knocks, and occasional check-in errors; some travelers also felt unsafe or found the area sketchy at night. Expect a basic, budget stay prioritizing location over polish.

Ac was cold and rooms where clean. Looks lile they did some updates to the rooms. Right off the beach and within walking distance from the Lexington. I would just like to note there is no ground floor so if you cannot do stairs this may not be the best place to stay.

The room smells HORRIBLE, everything is very old, dirty and moldy, they have no blankets, only 1 sheet. There is NO ice machine, there is no coffee. They give you the key to the room in recycled paper, dirty and torn. They should close this location,the room supposed to be non smoking and still smelled look for a better place to stay. We will never stay there again

The water cut off in the middle of my shower. Fridge didn’t work and it leaked. The ice machine didn’t either. Waste management came to empty the dumpsters before 7am, so much for sleeping in.

Property was in ok shape. Looked a little run down. Only one ice machine was broken and other visitors were standing outside their rooms late at night shouting and talking. Several lights in rooms were burnt out. Staff was nice and helpful other than lack of ice. Convenient to Lexington, aquariu and places to eat.

The room was very dirty and mold everywhere, the door nob was loose, I asked if I could get clean linen and they respond was "we don\'t have any" the lamp shades had mold , the walls also . The bathroom shower tub was broken in several places. The commode had stool all around the ring. The light fixtures had lots of dirt and spider webs.

Great location, cheap rates. Definitely run down and not very clean, but we just were there to sleep so it wasn't bad. Rooms smell of stale cigarettes and damp. I wouldn't recommend staying for more than a night, but if you need a cheap hotel in a great location just to sleep it gets the job done. Front desk lady was really nice.

For the price it was reasonable, a/c was ice cold, they weren’t any towels in the room but we were able to get some, fridge wasn’t working but wasn’t an issue for my stay and I doubt most of all rooms would have the same issue. Could use some minor updating to the room’s & exterior but decent for the price

The mattress wasn't super comfortable, but that's not uncommon. The room was very clean and everybody was friendly. The setup of the hotel however was the problem. On the first floor you're above the parking area so you hear every car that pulls in underneath you, and below the top floor so you hear your upstairs neighbors. Being so close to the beach they didn't have carpeted floors they had vinyl floors, so while the upstairs neighbors wandered back and forth in their room for multiple hours in hard heeled shoes, we got to listen to all of it and anytime they put anything down it sounded like they slammed it.

Great experience ! Just a 5 min walk away from the beach . It’s not super fancy, but it is very affordable and it gets the job done ! If you’re looking for a cheap hotel that is close to North Beach and isn’t completely dirty and trash. This is a good option because it’s lower in price and they have decent rooms. The bedding is clean. The restroom was clean and the room also was clean. The area is kind of sketchy at night, but as long as you lock your doors and stay in your room, staff is very nice and attentive

For an older motel, it is directly a 1 minute walk to the beach, 5 feet from an excellent Restaurant/Coctail lounge, 1 minute walk to several other nice restaurants/coctail lounges and the US 181 Freeway is in it's front yard. Such a good value and the friendliest management. I always stay there when I travel to North Beach, Corpus Christi, Texas.
