Everything! The room was updated, clean and spacious. Bathroom was beautiful and clean. Pillows weren’t great- super small complaint though. Breakfast buffet had the best oatmeal bar I’ve ever seen! Lots of room and space to sit. Would recommend!!

Jasmine

Disliked: Staff & service
The support staff was rude and dismissive. I booked a non-refundable stay and had a medical emergency last minute. It was not taken seriously and the staff ignored my consistent efforts to reach out to them BEFORE check-in time to explain the situation. I was not admitted or had (medical paperwork) as they requested before the check in time. They wanted paperwork before I was officially admitted. I understand "the policy" but I didn't deserve to be treated rudely. I deserved a partial refund as I was not requesting a full. Every customer is different and circumstances happen. I don't believe taking someone's funds when they are hospitalized is ethical. The "popular" hotel stays booked and refunding someone partial would not have send the property into any "bankruptcy". I will never book a Residence Inn again. different

My family and I had a pleasant experience at this hotel! The room was very clean, staff was friendly, polite and willing to help when needed. The hotel is close to the restaurants and Convention Center. It is aLao located across the street from the beach and I personally enjoyed walking to the beach in the morning even though was cold weather. I definitely recommend this hotel to other visitors of Galveston Island.
