Decent place to stay. Gives more of a family vacation vibe. They had activities at the pool for kids and families. We came as a couple and the vibe wasnt for us but it was clean and had everything you needed. Our room was on the 2nd floor, I asked for something higher and was told nothing was available. When we got to the room we were greeted with the view of the airconditioner blocking everything. Mind you, we came to the beach to relax on the balcony and watch the water. But, if you are there for family fun, it would be a good place. They even had a kids activities area inside. The pool was decent but crowded. The hot tub was nice too.

This was by far my worst stay in a hotel in Galveston . There was only ONE elevator working for the whole property , and even the elevator was not working as intended . ( it was too slow , we had to wait 15-20 min each time we wanted to go downstairs , and we were in the 8th floor ! ) Reception desk was completely oblivious and did not care about the situation . My wife had recent knee surgery and had to go down 8 flights of stairs! Completely unheard of … especially for the amount of money that we paid for our room . The room itself was very nice as it had been renovated recently … Other than that this property has a long way to go as far as customer service is concerned .
