Corpus Christi!

It's been awhile since I've visited Corpus Christi. I've only done a few trips there for work, but I am planning on making a 3/4 night trip towards the end of June (would be a Sunday-Weds/Thurs deal). I remember staying on Shoreline once and closer to the Selena Museum another time. As much as I would prefer to stay closer to the water/festivities, a short drive wouldn't be an issue either. This would mostly be a vacation, but going to squeeze some fun in for myself as well. So, I am wondering which side of town is typically best to stay. Feel free to also reach out via PM about any specific places that are cool and which ones to definitely avoid. Thank you so much
