With the rest of the room so dirty I had no confidence that the sheets had been changed. Rooms may be old and need updating but there is absolutely no excuse for a... More

I stayed at this property at beginning of February, just one night as I was departing on a cruise out of Galveston. The journey from Houston to Galveston is already an adventure in itself I may say, really don't understand why there is no regular affordable bus service for the general public to travel from one place to the other....

This motel is NO LONGER within the Best Western family, which is why the name has been CHANGED. Best Western standards were not met & upheld, therefore this haphazardly managed company was off-loaded. Of the numerous horrors my husband... More

We spent 4 days at this little hotel and had a great time. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Pool was perfectly heated. Grocery store next door was handy. Good restaurants within walking distance. Ocean and fishing piers right across the street. Nice little breakfast buffet. We had a great time and will definitely go back.
