I stayed here with my 11 year old son. The hotel has a clean pool and is close to the beach. The room on the other hand was nasty. Our feet turned black from walking on the carpet. The kitchenette was patched together. There was hair and sand in the tub. We also found lots of interesting things in the dresser drawers. Includeing a ...
The Sea Shell Motel offered a great price and a beautiful view of North Beach HOWEVER.... the room was filthy and service wasn't any better. The outside of the hotel looked cozy but upon entering our room there were workers fixing the air conditioner which was leaking and had the entire carpet in front of the bathroom soaked. We were ...

Sad Situation...very dirty
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/13/06
Okay, I just read some of the reviews here, are you sure we are talking about the Same Sea Shell Inn? Clean, friendly service, comfortable? I stayed at the same place less than a week ago, I found the rooms to be very dirty, the management was very rude and appeared to be frustrated if they were asked to provide any service other than taking your ...

Once was the Best-Now possibly the Worst
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/12/06
Once upon a time this motel was owned by wonderful people and run by Even better people. That all changed about 6 or 8 years ago. Now they DO NOT care about anything. They realize that the location will get a few poor unsuspecting souls, but of course, they will Never come back. We have been heart-sick that this once lovely spot has turned into a ...

Save yourself the trouble- go to Quality Inn down the street
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/11/06
after reading good reviews for this place here on yahoo, we made reservations for a 3 night stay...I called 3 days before our stay to confirm- Once we arrived, however, I encountered crappy customer service at it's best. We were told we'd only reserved the rooms for 2 nights, but we could move to a different room for our 3rd night...because ...

Wow, I wish I knew where some of these guys stayed.
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/01/06
5 and 4 stars? Where did you guys stay? I'd really hate to see what you guys call a 1 star. This place is a dump. Dirty carpet, dirty walls, dirty restroom. Nasty stove and dingy fridge. All rooms had mismatched furniture apparantly salvaged from somewhere. Only thing in commom was the rock hard matress. Owners/managers were not the most ...

Filthy, moldy, could not even stay for one hour
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/22/06
PLEASE DO NOT PAY ATTENTION TO THESE PLANTED REVIEWS. Based on reviews here, I reserved a room for 2 nights. Great location but horrible accomodations. Rock hard matresses. Kitchenette was filthy. Walls and air vent were moldy. They had one overworked maid there, rooms weren't ready at check-in time. There was no way I was letting my children ...

Awesome location.
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/14/06
Its right on the beach. Inexpensive, pool, next to the Lex. and Aquariam. Lots of souvinour shops. And if your lucky at low tide there are no waves and you can find lots of hermit crabs, and fish right off the beach. It was awesome. Some rooms have a kitchenette. Thats great when you have a bunch of people vacationing together.

We stayed at the Sea Shell Motel on 5/20/06-5/24/06. We go to the corpus at least 4 times in the summer this is the 1st time we stayed at Sea Shell Motel and it was wonderful. The manager PK is a great man and made us feel weclome. The housekeeper Delia was wonderful she was so friendly and made us feel like family my daughters loved her. The rooms ...
