We have stayed here a few times and on this latest trip, we noticed they have completed quite a few renovations which have really beautified the interior and its amenities. This includes updated rooms which were also very nice and accommodating. The pool & swim up bar is always a great place to hang out at the end of the day. The beach is super accessible in that if you walk to the light by Kroger, there are ramps on the seawall that allow you to roll down wagons, coolers, etc. Speaking of Kroger, having it nearby is very convenient if you need to replenish any food or drinks during your beach hangout. Lastly, they have valet parking available for those who may need it or just appreciate that luxury. However, the parking lot is not very big and I would mostly recommend just paying for the self parking.

The room was in poor condition and had an overwhelming and unpleasant odor. The management staff was very helpful. I believe the owners may think it is okay to leave the property in poor condition because of the proximity to the beach. However, this is not acceptable. This is not the only hotel chain in Galveston that has neglected the hotel yet continues to charge outrageous prices due to the location.

Worst hotel check in the history of humanity
Reception staff was horrible. Beyond disrespectful to my wife and myself on the phone. I am not sure I could rate this person any lower. Even the most deplorable Motel 6 wouldn’t even offer this person an interview to attempt to work there.

We stayed at the property for 5 nights. Overall, the hotel looks good, we had a room with sea view. It looked beautiful, however the first night we checked in we found a big cockroach in our room, which was pretty disgusting. They came quickly and removed it for us, but it just made us feel uncomfortable. On the last day, we found another cockroach in the shower as well. So, I think the hotel could do better regarding pest control and cleanness in general. The pool was the best thing. It was spacious, clean and fun, we enjoyed it as a family. For anyone interested in working out, right now the gym is under renovation due to the hurricane. Breakfast is really good, they have different kinds of food and healthy options as well. The area around the hotel is very beautiful with the beach in front of the hotel. Overall, this place is beautiful and we would still come back to this hotel, if we were to visit Galveston again.

I’m not sure how the hotel looked before renovations but it looks wonderful now! The lobby, the room, everything looked new. I took a star off because our room smelled a little musty, our telephone did not work, and there was no microwave. But otherwise, it was clean, sheets were crispy white, and we enjoyed our stay. I would book this hotel again.
