Nice but a little stiff

Place was great for the price. Little issue with door lock. Place was clean and staff was nice. Sheets were not that great. Stiff and felt like sand on the bed whole time. Even with that i would go back.

Great place!

The check-in process was very smooth. The employees at the desk were very polite. The room was clean and the area was very safe and quiet. I traveled as a single mom with two young kids and never felt concerned at all.

Easy check in, the owner communicated with us prior to arrival. The room was nice and clean, and appeared to be recently renovated. They have a large covered patio area with tables and grills, and plenty of parking. It's on stilts, so there's a lot of stairs, but that's true for all coastal structures. The location is perfect, just a few blocks from the beach, and a short drive and ferry ride to Galveston.
