Noise from remodeling on site was unacceptable. The Manager kept apologizing and was very nice but he chose not to stop the remodeling guy from hammering, drilling and making other loud noises right next to my room (perhaps under it but sounded right next door) as late as 11 pm at night. I asked 3 times for the construction to stop starting around 9:30 PM and ultimately I was moved to another room in the back away from the noise. This room was hot as the window unit had not been turned on in time and it was extremely inconvenient to pack up all my clothes and gear as well as all my refrigerated groceries and trek to another room when I was ready to go to bed. Window unit was extremely loud too. Furthermore I got numerous mosquito bites along the way.

Saltwater Inn was quite a surprise. Reading the reviews, I was a little skeptical. I was even a little wary when I first arrived, due to its rugged appearance. However, don't judge a book by its cover. The office staff was extremely welcoming, and the room was pristine and comfortable. Although the decor is minimalistic, I had all the essentials I needed and then some. Thank you, Mike et al.! I highly recommend Saltwater Inn without reservation.

The owner went above and beyond. Our luggage was lost at the airport and he stayed up late to check us in. The next day we needed to uber but there isn't any on the Peninsula. The owner found us one and we were able to Ferry over to Galveston in time to make our cruise. everyone we came in contact with was nice, helpful, and really went the extra mile to help out guests.
