Loft Stay
It was very convenient to the strand, so we could easily walk for food and shopping. Very cute place with lots of old features. They had everything you could possibly need except a dresser or somewhere to place your luggage instead of just within the closet. I do think the bedding could be upgraded, but overall it was a nice place to get away for a night.

Cozy and Stylish Loft with Amazing Location near The Strand
Our small family was very happy with our Thanksgiving weekend stay at the Market Street loft. The unit is unique, comfortable, and has all of the amenities we need. It's located in a great location with restaurants, coffee shops, and boutique stores and is a quick 10 minute walk to The Strand. We are looking forward to returning in a couple of months!

Perfect for us
We wanted a quick overnight stay in Galveston. It was small, but perfect for us, since we didn’t want to stay on the beach. The window unit was a little loud, but that was mostly a problem with our kids. We would definitely stay there again!

We stayed for a night before we left to cruise. It was the perfect location to be able to walk downtown on the Strand. We enjoyed the location and the set up. We will be staying again on our next trip there.

The property smelt old and musty. The toilet seat was loose and almost threw you off the toilet. The bathroom had black mold growing around the shower and along the moulding. There was a roach running across the wall. They also request that you take your trash out behind the building in the back alley when you leave. I felt that was a bit ridiculous. We immediately packed back up and left. There are cameras in the hallway that showed we left. I am still waiting on a reply for a refund of the room due to it’s unfit conditions.

Not great
The bathroom door has a loud squeaky noise. The rug is very stained. Rain dripped right by your face on the king bed. Because of this issues we were not able to rest well. Our stay was ok. The location is good.

Location and private second story patio were selling points for us. Plus we got it at a great price. The loft apartment was exactly as shown in the pictures and was stocked with everything extra we needed. So cute and would definitely stay there again.

Enjoyed the loft decor. Clean modern space in historic building. Great kitchen and bath. Bring your own bath amenities- not much included. AC works very well, but hard to control. Entry directions were good. The bunk beds are really for kids- very low entry for bottom bunk. Would return.

Great area!
The place was clean, kitchen is stocked with all the essentials needed to cook in and most importantly, the bed is comfortable. I think this would be a great place for a young group of friends to hang out at. The downfalls: Parking is confusing. 2 hour limit between 9-6. (No paid parking) We had to set our alarm to move the car and/or leave between those parking times. And... those stairs to the apartment is not fun for older people, more so carrying luggage and coolers. All in all, we would rent here again if the price is worth the parking hassles.

Great spot to crash prior to a cruise
This location was easy to get to and was the perfect accommodation for myself and 5 other friends. I have to give the listing 4/5 stars though, because upon check-in, we found the place had not been cleaned prior to our arrival. Bed sheets were amess, and the floor bathroom was covered in towels. I brought this issue to the host and the host had cleaners sent within 20 minutes. The cleaners were quick and efficient - we just hung out on the balcony while they did their work. Many thanks to the host for the quick resolution on the issue.
