Great overnight stay in Galveston! Be prepared though for some tedious steps. Our apartment was on the second floor and hauling luggage can be a task! I’d do it again though as the apartment was perfect!! Close to Mod coffee and Taquilos. The best places to grab a coffee and dinner in town!!

yes, it was a cute loft and it fit all of us. the lights from the hallway were pretty bright which made it hard to sleep. the toilet in the main bathroom kept breaking. you can tell that some of the furniture was very old but overall it was a great stay.

Great location & lovely place

It is a lovely, well appointed, nicely updated apartment with historic charm in a great location with many restaurants within walking distance. We were only there one night before getting on a cruise - also within close proximity - but wish it could've been longer. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!
