The beach view was wonderful!!! The studio was clean and the kitchen was perfect for what we needed. The price was well worth the room. We will certainly book this place again. It is a perfect place for a couple to enjoy a get-a-way without breaking the bank. Plain and simple, clean with a GREAT view of the ocean from the balcony.
The view of the beach was unobstructed and the room was as described. It is a bit older and could use some work but would meet the needs in Galveston. I found that they could use a little more kitchen goods to help with food prep in the kitchen. Some of the plugs did not work and I could not figure out how to turn the light above the kitchen bar on (the switch didn't do anything), although I never contacted the owner about that, so my problem there. I felt they could definitely use more lighting, pretty dim over all. The main concern that I had was the balcony was covered, (and I mean piles of bird poop on chairs, railings, corners, windows) with bird poop and pigeons made it their home 24 hrs./day. I was unable to open deck door for sanitation reasons. I did reach out to the owner and they said they would send someone to clean, which I guess they did (I left), but I decided for my own health and enjoyment, to go somewhere else. After much back and forth I did receive a 51 (15% refund from the owners.) Also, they were very responsive to my messages and pretty easy to reach. For some reason I am unable to add the pictures I took of the balcony.
This was perfect for my son and I, or even for a couple or small family. Listing was exactly as described, the view of the beach was wonderful! Everything you need or want is a short walk or drive away. There were plenty of towels, which I certainly appreciated. The front dest staff was helpful and friendly, the pool was nice, and I loved that we could just leave our room and walk across the street to the beach. We will absolutely stay here again! Highly recommend!You do have to pay 35 dollars to park in their lot, but your pass is good for the duration of your stay.
Bite and location was great. Place was exceptionally clean. Could use some repairs such as trim in the bathroom and properly installing the dishwasher. Has a front desk check in 24 hours. Staff was friendly. Communication was great. Price was perfect.
