"Nice place to stay, easy access to the beach and bubba gumps. We don’t do rides but it’s a short walk to pleasure pier. You get a nice view of the beach from the balcony and can annoy the sea breeze. The breakfast was great had coffee and sausage with eggs."

"It was easy to pretend that you were at resort somewhere besides Galveston. The pool and outside area was so beautiful. The staff from out by the pool, in the restaurants, the front desk, valet parking, to the cleaning staff were all very friendly and helpful."
