We stayed at the hotel with three small children. The location is convient to I-45. Not close to the ocean, but nice considering its not on the seawall. The employees were very nice, and even offered me milk for our baby. The accomodations worked for what we needed. The room was clean. The motel is near three different gas stations... more

The room was clean but had an odor. We had to burn candles and spray air freshner the entire time. The price was a little high for what... more

Usually when I stay is Galveston I want to be as close to the beach as possible. This time however I needed quick access to I45 because the main feature was an Astros game in Houston and I did not want to stay in Houston. The staff was friendly upon arrival. The room was large and clean with more than... more
