Rooms are clean, breakfast is good, staff is awesome, ocean view rooms can't be beat, pool/ hot tub bar & delicious restaurant on site. My favorite stay on the island 🌴🍹🍤🌮🍰
Good place to enjoy, the pool away, comfortable rooms. I wish for a better quality of breakfast, it seems very neglected and forgotten, it does not go with the rest of the facilities.
Wonderful stayed. Love this place, definitely we are coming back. My husband and I came with the kids and teenagers and they loved it. Went to the pool and after to the beach.
Breakfast was delicious but the staff made it even better!! Truly felt like you were with family. We stayed on the first floor so the view wasn’t as good as the second floor guests but it was really nice to be walking distance to the beach and Nick’s. The pool was well maintained and very big.
Staff was very friendly, helpful and accommodating. Room was comfortable and cool. Short walk to beach

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The location is great, the staff very nice. The hotel is outdated but for the location and price no bad. The pool is excellent for kids. The bar and restaurant next door is great excellent happy hour and nice staff. The building is old but for a nice relaxing weekend is great
Specially with kids.
Staff soo friendly , great location ocean view restaurant next to the hotel good walk to the Galveston Pleasure Pier enjoyed the boardwalk and trolley ride .
Clean rooms. Just a little pet smell. Staff was excellent! Great service 👏. Not sure the name of the receptionist. I went on Thursday May 28. She was great!
The breakfast setup was appalling. Definitely need to rethink this. Just felt like a poor man’s breadline with greasy undercooked sausage links every morning and overcooked powder eggs. It was actually a little scary to eat, so after day 1 we skipped it. The attached restaurant was nice and the pool area was ok. Having the beach so close was the best part.
I went here with my daughter for two nights for a getaway from Houston city life and it definitely did not disappoint.
From the moments I got there the check in process was super easy and staff was friendly.
When we arrived to our room I was a tad bit sad because I booked the ocean view room and I got a room infront of the pool instead.
But other than that it was the best experience yet.
The pool was great, breakfast as yummy, staff is friendly.
Will be coming back asap.
