The Mariner
10/10 Excellent
"Though some may find issues with the quality of repairs and upkeep, there can be no complaints about cleanness and comfort. Very CLEAN!!!! bed, pillows, towels and sheets of good quality. Great Stay!"
"The only bad thing is that they charge $20 for early check in. I did not check in early. Otherwise place is close to The Stand (historic center of Galveston), check in was easy and the room is large and clean."
"Best experience I have had at a Hotel. I travel all the time for work, this time was with the family. They accommodated everything we needed and more. I can't say enough good things about this hotel and their management and staff. Breakfast was fantastic and great value as well."
