We went for a 3 day trip with the kids for oldest son’s birthday and we let him him choose the place. He was shocked at how awesome it was to choose a place with a mini arcade. We absolutely loved it and can’t wait to stay again!

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful place in Galveston! From the moment we arrived, everything was spotless and exactly as described. The place was spacious, comfortable, and had all the amenities we needed for a relaxing trip. We especially loved the outdoor space — perfect for morning coffee and evening smores.The location was ideal — close to the beach, restaurants, and local attractions. The hosts were incredibly responsive and thoughtful, making sure we had everything we needed for a smooth stay.We couldn’t have asked for a better home base during our time in Galveston. Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again!

Mold and crappy doors that don’t lock

Their bathroom had mopped all over the ceiling and the shower, and you can smell it when you walked in. One of my kids felt sick from it. They did not offer any thing for the inconvenience. I told them my kid was feeling sick and they did not care

Overnight Stay before cruise

We decided to stay here overnight to board a carnival cruise the next day. After a long day of traveling, this place was exactly what the family needed. Game room was awesome. Kids loved the bed setup. Super clean and orderly. Great communication. Thank you so much.

Would stay again

Overall would stay here again, but some things to note. The place could have been cleaner. Our feet were black when walking without socks. Also the location was pretty loud. Each night we woke from the neighbors around 3am. Lastly leaving a welcome package like a few bottles of water would be appreciated by guests.

Great Location in Downtown Galveston

We enjoyed our stay. My son really liked the arcade. The location is great, five minutes walk to the Railroad Museum, coffee shops and restaurants. About a ten minutes drive to the Moody Mansion/Children's museum, Bishop's Palace, and the Seawall. And finally about 15 minutes to the Moody Gardens. There is lots to see and do.Great communication with the host, quick response time and provided all information needed.Great Location in Downtown Galveston to walk around.Things to note:The Terminator arcade game doesn't work due to the wiring at the base of the guns which it's exposed and coming apart. The other arcades do work just fine.There are lots of creaks and noises all the time (it's an older building so this can be expected). The front door is hard to open because it sticks on the concrete.You can hear people going up/down the stairs and walking about the unit upstairs You can hear people walking by outside as well.The shower does shows some discoloration on the sealant around the bottom. There isn't a washer/dryer available in the unit.To get to the trash bins, you go out the patio gate and through the second gate (past the other apartments) to the back alley, there you will find the dark green trash bins.Parking: We were able to park right out front.There is a sign that says "2 hour parking 9am to 6pm" but we didn't have an issue, we were out the second day until the evening. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would stay again.
