Construction and it looks diserted.

Thank you for your feedback, Chadwick. I do apologize for the construction going on, but this is the time we have to do it because as you said, we are pretty empty until mid-May, so we are trying to get the work done. I think you will be happy when you come back and the construction has been compeleted.

Property is pretty outdated. The hallways and room smelled like mildew. I think they did the best they could to make it average. All of the staff were polite. The location was great for the Galveston Ironman race. Parking was good, well lit and seemed safe. The breakfast was unappealing. The miniature golf was a fun activity. Overall…ok

Response from Pam on 30 Apr 2024
Thank you for the feedback, Shon. I do apologize for the issue with the smell in the hallways and rooms, please notify of this immediately, because a lot of times, we can find the issue. However, a lot of times, it is difficult to trace, just because the humidity here is high and when it gets too high, everything smells mildewy! We always want to attempt to get it resolved for our guests though!

Need a lil bit of update and cleaning on the outdoor areas. ROOMS were great. Breakfast need better options.
Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024
Response from Pam on 18 Mar 2024
Thank you for the wonderful review, Dannis! We are currently working on some updates or a proper facelift of the entire property. The only thing we will not be able to do is provide much more in the way of the breakfast as we do not have any facilities in which to cook. That is why we only advertise it as a "continental breakfast." We have added, boiled egg, yogurt, fresh fruit, and additional bread items be our options are sorely limited!

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Pictures are not truthful. Property is located in the middle of nowhere. Our view was a fuel holding tank two of them. This is awful. Mini putt is dangerous and shouldn’t be used. Pool was not heated. And an entire side of the property was not in use due to fire damage. This is a property that should be demolished. Room was clean, and big shower and toilet was extremely small and hard to use. I do not recommend this property at all.
Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024
Response from Pam on 18 Mar 2024
I am sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your stay with us, Kim. Our location should be clearly visible on the map function provided by Expedia. We do have a great many guests who love the location because it is quiet compared to the rest of the island, but also within a mile of the beach, next door to Schlitterbahn and Moody Gardens. The two areas you should stay in if you like a lively nightlife would be the Strand or the Seawall and maybe you can enjoy your time on the island.

For the most part a great stay. We had issues with my daughter’s anxiety doodle. I went and talked with daytime clerk and he waived the fee the same day the next shift come on and was rude and told me I was going to pay it after being there 2 days with only a few hours left before we left. We had no complaints she was very rude so we probably will not be back.
Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024
Response from Pam on 13 Mar 2024
I am so sorry this happened to you during your stay, Stacie. I will address this with the staff right away. It appears that the gentleman did not share that he had agreed to waive the pet fee with anyone, so the lady at the front desk was clearly in the dark about the previous discussion. We will strive for better communications so that we do not have other guests encounter this issue. I am happy that other than that, you enjoyed your stay, and I hope you will give us another chance to show you how it should have gone.

Nice room, but the pòol and mini golf are unheated and outdoors. The water park was not operational and it was cold outside.

Response from Pam on 22 Feb 2024
Thank you for the great feedback, Michael! I hope you will come back soon to enjoy the pool and the mini golf! There is only about 2 to 3 months out of the year when it is not warm enough to really swim, but once we start seeing the warm weather, it will heat right up! I believe the waterpark is going to be opening up again for weekends on April 10th, so maybe you can plan another trip before the "rush" of summer hits us!
