The staff are so friendly especially the staff from breakfast the nicest people
The room was very clean. The staff was amazing as always. Love the breakfast very delicious. The best part is they served you instead of multiple people fixing their own breakfast .
Staff was nice, but the room had shower that filled more of the bath than what came out of the shower head. The breakfast was delicious. The room definitely needs a remodel in the bathroom and cabinets were dirt but over all decent for the price.
I love the locaton and i really like the hotel. Rooms are always clean and they have a great breakfast.
However the outside is showing its age and is needing some repairs. But they are not so bad that it would keep me from going back
Staff was very nice and breakfast was amazing. We liked it that you just aren't smoke free but pet free. It is getting hard to find a hotel where pets haven't been on the beds!! Thank you so much!!

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
The room was very clean and decorsted so cute. Bathroom was small but clean. Pool area is very nice at night. Didnt get tonswim though, due to lightning. Breakfast was great. Both ladies were very helpful amd friendly.
The room was fine but the bathroom needed to be scrubbed. Bathtub, walls, floor. Bad leak from soap dispenser caused slippery bathtub, so I had to put a towel down so not to slip in tub. I'm 71, so it matters. The lady at the front desk needed a more customer service attitude. The ladies in the breakfast room were #1 best experience I had. I loved them!!

Price, location on the seawall and the cruise parking option is AWESOME!
This is an old hotel, but it is very clean. It is so quite. Could not hear anyone above us or out in the hallway outside. Very nice stay. This will be my go-to hotel when in Galveston. Beautiful pool and nice bar at the pool. Food was great!
Its a perfect spot for an overnight. Love it there. Clean, cold ACed rooms, super friendly, cool ladies working breakfast making it homey. Great variety. Only wish it had a cappuchino machine. I always stay here.
