Our stay at Holiday Inn Express went really well. Loved the location, breakfast was really good, and the rooms were clean and spacious. The staff were friendly. I loved the convenience of being able to walk down to The Spot restaurant for dinner. We did come in January so it was really cold but it was worth it. I would definitely recommend staying here when in Galveston and can’t wait to stay again!
