This hotel is a 10/10 I highly recommend it! From the great amenities to the incredibly friendly staff and valet service, everything was top notch. The only thing that caught me off guard was a fishy or sea like odor in the restroom that lingered throughout the stay. Aside from that, everything else was amazing.

Pleasantly surprised

We will definitely stay here again next time we visit Galveston. The front desk, pool, cleaning staff were all great. Very friendly and fast service. The only bad service we received was when we tried to stop by the 5400 bistro for breakfast we ended up leaving after sitting for 15 minutes with no service. The room was really nice, clean and spacious. The sofa-bed bed was not comfortable but our 6 and 2 year old still slept there even though during the day they were on our bed. The king mattress was good but the pillows were way too soft. Your head sinks in. If that's your preference then great. I'll still stay here and just bring my own pillows. Overall my 6 year old gave it a 4.5 out of 5 stars and I agree. Great for a weekend with your special someone and great for a weekend with your family.

Our first morning went out well. The staff were friend and accommodating. The service at the breakfast place went great, they were helpful, friendly, and welcoming. But our second morning was the opposite. We waited for time at the front because nobody was there. We finally got to sit down, it took so long for the server to serve us. We were the one to call them. And it felt like they were mad that we had to order breakfast. We felt bad for ordering food. When my husband was asking for a bowl and plate at the bfast buffet, they gave him all the dirty plates that were not washed yet. It was a bad service. But overall, it was an okay experience.

We stayed at this resort for a night before boarding for our cruise. The facility if beautiful, walking access to the beach (right outside the front door). We loved the view from our room. The bed was super comfy, the breakfast was delicious. Staff was friendly. I really appreciate the front desk staff assisting with an early check-in after traveling most of the day to get to Galveston. We will definitely stay here again when coming to Galveston.

We enjoyed our stay, but the Gulf view was a little obstructed as the chairs on the balcony didn't have a really good view unless you blocked the door to the balcony. We did enjoy looking at the water and watching people from Landry's park near our hotel.
