The paint is chipping off of the metal railings
There’s no elevator to take your suitcase up to your room so you have to bump your suitcase up the steps
Nothing is within walking distance here to go get something to eat or do anything.
The staff has been awesome very helpful. The property itself definitely needs some upkeep..

Excellent value!!
I stay here every time I go on a cruise because they have free cruise parking… The hotel is a bit older and the rooms reflect its age, but they’re fairly clean and very comfortable! We’ll definitely stay here again soon!

I will not stay here again. It’s old and out of date which I was okay with. But there were lots of insects in our room so we requested to be moved. Our second room had a full toilet that didn’t flush! When we asked for another new room we were told “i don’t know if we can. you’ll probably find something you don’t like with that one too”

This was a great place to stay before our cruise. Our room was very clean, quiet and comfortable. We did not hear the ferry at all. The wonderful gentleman at the front desk was so kind and helpful. It was a bonus that we were able to leave our car here while we were on our cruise. I will definitely stay here again the next time I am in Galveston.

All the employees were very nice. This property is run down and needs a lot of repair. They do have covered parking for free that’s a plus. I wish I would have paid a bit more to be closer to the Seawall, instead, we paid a lot for Uber rides.

Stayed overnight for our cruise. Nothing super fancy, but clean and safe. Parking was a great deal and called for an uber super easy for $15! Will definitely stay here again before our next cruise.
