Front desk service was lacking. Continental breakfast was also. The price is what brought us there but in the future, I'd pay more to get a better hotel.
Nice Hotel. Nice Staff. Close to anything you may want to do in Galveston. They have their own Mini Golf course which is free to guests. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. Would stay here again.
Nice large room, everything worked and it was comfortable. We would certainly stay there next time we go to Galveston.
Moody Gardens is just around the corner and the beach is close by as well. We were attending meetings and a ceremony that involved both convention centers and it couldn't have been easier. Wonderful experience and stay.
The only thing that was a negative was no elevator. Our trip was great.
The room smelled, super small bathroom, and area was not the best. The staff the first night was not helpful in pointing us the direction of the room.
This is a great choice if you get a room in the new building. The room was huge and very comfortable! The location is perfect and within walking distance of Moody Gardens and Schlitterbahn.
Great place for the price. Nice place to k8ck off your boots..
Jeryn was awesome! She answered all our questions we had with the area being that it was our first time in Galveston. We absolutely loved our stay and trip! We will stay again at the inn at the water park. :)
Hotels in Galveston are very overpriced. This is our 2nd time staying at this hotel. Both times we stayed in the newer updated section, although I have to say, if that was updated then I definitely don't want to stay in the older part! Both times we have stayed there have been young kids running up and down the hall until midnight or later. Also, unless you go for the free breakfast before 7:30 am, don't bother. Save yourself the trouble and pack some Poptarts because unless you want to get in line behind 30 people (yes, 30) to make 2 small pancakes, you might as well eat Poptarts because the only other options are cold pastries and cereal. The location is excellent for people on a budget who are going to Schlitterbahn, but if you can afford to pay a little more, check for other options.
This hotel is close to Schlitterbahn and Moody Gardens and is priced reasonably.
The hotel is in a good location for the water park and minutes from the beach staff very helpful and nice. My son had a great bday here we will stay again .
Stayed there with my wife before our cruise free mini golf . nice place
The hotel stay was great and it was nice that we were all on the same floor and area. We had a great time. The only bad experience we all had was extreme mosquito bites all over our entire body, including the face. It would be nice to have a designated area for smokers...
We've stayed here twice before our cruise and both times we were very satisfied.
My husband and went to a beach party out there and checked in Saturday it was nice and was clean and staff was nice ... I wish there would have been a one bed available instead of me paying for two beds when it was just me and my husband but overall it was great hotel I will be using them again in the near future ... I might going out there Friday ..... With another couple so maybe I can find a room out there with another couple
Family had a wonderful time @ Shclitterbahn and this was my first visit. The staff are great and helpful. The hotel stay was just ok. The price for the hotel is a bit costly by comparison. Guess convenience is what you're paying for at this hotel. My experience with the entire trip was me and my sisters going home with tons of mosquito bites all over our body.
Our stay was good. We only stayed for one night but our room was clean and comfortable. Location was not bad either. Great thing I liked about the hotel was that they provide a shuttle service to the cruise terminal and you can park your vehicle there for free. Loved that feature.
Room phone did not work. Could not call in a wake up call, or report excessive noise from the adjacent room. We were dressed and ready for bed when we discovered the phone did not work.The excessive noise continued well into the night. Since the lobby was not in the same building and it was raining it was not practical to report our issues. After being on the road for over 14 hours that day, we were not able to get a good night's rest. We were told to contact you upon reporting our problem to the front desk the next morning when we checked out.
Not too bad especially considering the price. A few con's: no air conditioning in elevators or waiting areas so drenched in sweat by the time I got to my room or car, tiny breakfast area for the size of hotel so we could not eat breakfast there which was a major bummer for us. Pro's: large spacious rooms, covered parking area, good location.
