Book a hotel near Port of Galveston, Strand Historic District

"Nice hotel, hyper expensive & poorly managed: 1. Rude and unfriendly staff, including the front desk, café, and our housekeeper. Notable exceptions was Nick and maintenance staff; 2. I booked our room one month before arrival and agreed to the price of over $600 per day, bc we were part of another party. We had three rooms total. The other party had 2 huge suites at the same price across the street. However, after checking in, I discovered that three days after we checked out, the room rates were no longer $600 a day but rather $189 a day and/or also $264 a day. This is de facto is price gouging!! Furthermore. our room was very small, had poor lighting in the room and bathroom and the TV didn’t work properly; 3. Please be aware that the valet charges will not be included in the hotel bill and you have to pay separately; In conclusion, we are tired of being overcharged by these large hotel chains with local management. We’re no fools. We’ll never be returning to the Tremont or Galveston! Our rooms were more expensive than Las Vegas, New York City, or most of Europe. Furthermore, I’m contacting the Marriott directly. "

"DEAD ELEVATOR: If you like dragging all your full-size suitcases and carry-on luggage up two sets of stairs, this is the place for you. When you finally get to the top floor, don't bother trying to get the DEAD TV working. You'll have plenty of time to do laundry - your clean shower towels can be found in the washing machine soaking wet. LOFT DESCRIPTION: Fails to mention the DEAD ELEVATOR that they know about and refuse to fix. Discovering the TV WAS DEAD was actually funny."
