All was fine except that guests were supposed to be wearing wrist bands, but so many people at the pool that didn’t and were obviously not guests. This was a big issue because there weren’t enough lounge chairs. We had to make 2-3 visits to the pool area until a pair were not occupied.

Our bathroom was dirty with blond hair in the shower (my husband and I are black with black kinky hair); the breakfast was misleading. It was set up like continental breakfast until they came out with a check..we paid $48 for continential type breakfast and it wasn’t hot..other than that the stay was fine…the location was great!

IF it is now standard for the Hotel industry to charge guests a daily parking fee. Then it would be less of a surprise if that fee was included on the overall price of whatever a persons hotel stay is. Paying hundred of dollars or more to stay in a hotel, and then come check in time, to be charged for parking daily for whatever the duration of the stay is. Is simply unabashed greed. The wife and I, shall not visit Galveston again. That whole place has become tourist trap, with the game of trying to see how much money they can squeeze a person dry for!
