Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The room was very clean (no bugs), the a/c worked great, the beds were comfortable, and the staff was friendly and helpful. It will be our go-to place from now on. It is within walking distance of the water, shops, and restaurants. The price was very reasonable.

Disliked: Amenities
The location was great. Walkable to the dock/pier and the main street for local boutiques and restaurants.
The smell inside the room wasn't very pleasant and I did find old food chunks around the floor. Otherwise the value for what we paid was fine.
I LOVE the owner. She is THE SWEETEST lady ever. This is why I continue to stay here each time I visit my family. And the view? You can beat walking outside and seeing the water. Plus it's diagonal from the best bar in town even though I rarely go now days.
The room had not been maintained! Towel hanger missing, no soap or shampoo, paint pealing off walls, shower dirty, shower head totally clogged , and no maid service between days!
Bay View Inn was excellent for a weekend fishing getaway! The room was very clean very nice, and the beds were comfortable. Very well kept. AC was nice and cold at night. The location was perfect for what we were doing, and where we were going to be. I will definitely stay there again!
Great location. Spacious and allows pets. Was pretty clean. My only complaint is our room was a bit dusty like it hadn't seen anyone in a while. Did enjoy our stay.
Great value right on the bay and only 30 minutes from activities in Port Aransas. Within walking distance of the quaint shops on the main drag in Rockport.
The courtyard was beautiful. Walking distance to the water, restaurants, a shaved ice hut we like, and live entertainment. Just be aware that the noise levels are sometimes lively.
