Really enjoyed our stay , it was a weekend and the boardwalk was very busy , with music and the crayfish festival was in full swing. This we quite enjoyed and didn’t affect our stay .

Located in an amusement park on the boardwalk. Very nice clean area, but as expected was noisy. The Inn itself is very nice with clean spacious rooms. Parking was abundant with outside and in an adjacent parking garage which was complementary if staying in the Inn.

My husband and I went to Kemah for his birthday weekend. Property was beautiful, well kept, and smelt so amzing. We had an issue with our mini fridge and the inn quickly brought us a new unit to finish out our stay. Our only issue was to leave the inn there are only stairs. There aren't any ramps or handicap access. My husband is a combat veteran and at times going up and down stairs are hard and painful for him. So that would be our only complaint. Other than that, we loved our stay.
