I’m very upset about when I checked in last night upon checking in I was told my deposit for one night stay would be put back on my card today at noon which is the day I check out as long as I didn’t smoke or have a pet in room which I did not do either. Then today when I go to check out I ask about my deposit & was told I would not get it back on my card for 3-5 business days from today!!!! I need my deposit back today the day I was told when I got the room!! If I would have been told it was going to take 3-5 business days before I got my money back I would have never paid for room!

Gross property with cigarette butts all over the stairs and walk ways. The room stunk so bad it was just a miserable stay all together. We were there for only one night waiting to board our cruise thankfully!

Nice motel at the beach
Went to Galveston for a weeks vacation and stayed here because the rate was really good. The hotel is a typical beach hotel but comfortable to stay in and super close to the beach… like right across the street. Would definitely stay here again.

The sheets were dirty. Just stayed 8/3/04 the shower had hair not mine in it! The shower head was horrible. Lobby staff was not friendly at all. The clientele that stays there made me feel unsafe so I had to lock and load. I really don’t recommend staying here. Yes it was cheap! You get what you pay for. Will pay the extra money next time for better service and quality.

Smells like smoke all throughout the night and the manager tells me she doesn’t smell anything after they go up to the room and spray something in there. And also refuses a refund. Terrible experience

The location of the hotel was convenient. However, the cleanliness of the rooms could be improved, and the front desk lady was very rude
