Palm Springs meets Galveston
Best little gem. The general manager was the best I’ve ever seen! She was always around and chatting, helping her staff. The place is a little slice of Palm Springs in the 70s. If you are going to Galveston, go here.

Cool place, retro feel, very friendly staff; needs coffee in the rooms. Was pricey for the accommodations, especially when there was not even coffee available in the room, although you could get a cup of coffee for about four dollars at the bar in the morning. We paid over $300 per room, but we were desperate because our other accommodations were unavailable due to the storms. So I do not know if this is their usual price or if the price had gone up due to availability on the island.

Amazing stay during a rough time.
We had an amazing time here! Our room was absolutely perfect. We were right outside from the pool, and every staff member greeted us with a smile. Would definitely stay here again!

Meh wouldn’t stay again
Pictures appear nicer than it actually is. Food is expensive and so is the room for what it is. One very nice feature is we had a main floor interior room that is literally right next to the pool. There were drunk people stumbling in during the night that woke us up which is no fault to the hotel.

The hotel is very small and cute. It's a remodel of the previous hotel. I accidentally spilled water and used a towel to dry it up it was so dirty. The floors don't get mopped. Upon check in, we were advised that Expedia doesn't include the $10 per person resort fee. It's hardly a resort. I, read over the website and saw that outside food and drinks were not allowed. We saw people bringing in outside food and alcohol. A pool day with drinks and a basket of fries was $115. That wasn't including the $40 bucket of Ultra that my husband purchased separately. We tried the food and had cocktails offered during our stay. They were mid. We had dinner and breakfast outside of the hotel. The hotel is definitely understaffed. We waited for drinks forbat least 10 minutes several times. I stopped using the QR code at the pool for my drinks. It would take 20 minutes. If I ordered at the bar it was 10 minutes. The staff did not know how to answer any of my questions when asked. They were all ver nice and tried to be helpful. The manager or someone came over to address a question we had about reserving pool spots. I asked about bringing in outside food and alcohol and she said no, that it was not allowed. I just said Ok, while I saw it going around me. I'm not a snitch! They get stitches. It is after all, the hotel that should be aware. If we decide to visit again, we know how to do it. The media presentation is not what you get. IMO. This is a "boutique" hotel at best. It needs some work.
