Friends weekend

I am in a wheelchair and the property is very accessible..we stayed for 5 days 4 nights beds were very comfortable and the bathrooms were very big and accommodating for a person in a wheelchair. The agent even bought a bench seat for me to use. It was very thoughtful. We will use the property again. The only issue was parking is on the street.my accessible van was too large to turn into the alley driveway.

Quiet little space

This place had a lot of good qualities about it. The decor has no real theme but oh well it doesn’t matter. It could use more pillows for the bed and a headboard. I hate having my pillow slip off the bed. The main bed was comfortable the others where okay. Over all it’s a great home, with a wonderful host.

Wonderful stay

We only stayed for one night but everything was clean and neat. My 10 year old son enjoyed some of the toys in the guest bedroom. There was a projector with pictures of space which he thoroughly enjoyed. This house is tucked away in the alley and was just a tiny bit of work to make sure we were at the right place. Didn’t take long at all to figure it out with the address having an R at the end.

Galveston Beach Trip

We enjoyed our time in Galveston and renting this property vs a hotel room made our trip even better. Close enough to Pleasure Pier and the beach and convenient to Moody Gardens and Schlitterbaun. The property owner was very responsive and the house was clean. We appreciated the beach chairs available to use and my son really enjoyed the boogie board. Would definitely stay here again!
