Easy check in, the owner communicated with us prior to arrival. The room was nice and clean, and appeared to be recently renovated. They have a large covered patio area with tables and grills, and plenty of parking. It's on stilts, so there's a lot of stairs, but that's true for all coastal structures. The location is perfect, just a few blocks from the beach, and a short drive and ferry ride to Galveston.

Room was fair. Water pressure was only fair, both electric outlets by bed weren't functional, no electric outlets by desk, incredibly noisy air conditioning unit, bulb burned out in central light. All units are second floor with no elevator.

Clean, cute, walking distance to beach

Adorable, clean room walking distance from the beach with all you need, fridge, microwave, shampoo, conditioner, soap, cable tv, etc. cute beach decor with door mats in front of each room.

Location is very nice. More attention to facilities is needed. The owners/management tried to accommodate our need for a/c after our initial room had a problem with the deadbolt lock, but the alternative room had a poorly working a/c. They did try replacing the a/c, in quick time I might add, but unfortunately, it didn't work either. We ended up back in the original room we were booked that had a faulty deadbolt. We took it because the a/c worked. The deadbolt was still not working when we left. I understand that this is an older motel that was updated, but things like locks need to work. I gave them 4 stars because they really did try to help us with what they had available to them. They were booked and there weren't many options. The night ended up being ok. I just hope they fix the deadbolt on room 10. The room was clean and other than the deadbolt, everything was nice. I would be more likely to stay here again during a weekday when the prices are hopefully more reasonable.
