We loved it here and absolutely would stay again. Couple suggestions, fix elevator issues and turn the ginormous closet into a bunkbed area for kids. Other than that, the stay was fantastic.

I rented this place for a weekend of fishing for me and my family. Really nice place, very cute and clean! The location is really good as well, close to the pier and beach and shops. Would definitely consider booking here again in the future!

Wedding Stay

We were in Galveston for a wedding. The loft was a very vlean, well preserved older building with wood floors and plenty of space. It only had one bathroom, but there were only 2 of us so this was not a problem.

Polar Express Trip

We spent several days in Galveston before taking the Polar Express train ride with our grandchildren. The location of this property is very close to the strand and we were able to find many restaurants within walking distance which was nice. The loft maintained a lot of the original charm from when it was built but also had the updated modern convenience s and updated appliances. It was very clean and well stocked. We definitely enjoyed our stay. This property is on the third floor of the building and the elevator was out of service the entire time of our stay. It didn’t create a problem for us, but definitely would have been a problem for someone physically unable to climb three flights of stairs with and without luggage.

Portable a/c units

Arrived and the place was cute but the a/c must have gone out so the owner put two portable units in the condo. Rolled them in and rigged the tube out of the window. It was so hot we couldn’t stay there. Very disappointing because we had to pay for two places in one weekend. I feel they should have told us about the situation and gave us a choice to stay or get a refund. We were disappointed and out our money.

No functional Elevator.

This property was decorated very well and all updated appliances. There was no elevator so traveling up and down with heavy suitcases (at my age) was a bit of a struggle for the third floor. The steps were a little steep, and I had a terrible fall on the morning after my first night. Thankfully no broken bones, but I had a huge gash on my leg. I didn’t go back, but my daughter stayed the second night. I slept on my friends couch across the street at her apartment. Also, the door between the bedrooms wouldn’t close. The bullet holes in the window of the bedroom made my grand daughter a little anxious about sleeping in that room. I am normally pretty easy to please, but this stay was not my favorite due to the circumstances listed above.

We enjoyed our stay. I will book again, however, there’s no central a/c. They have window units which were ok. However, I sent my son home to get floor fans which helped circulate the cold air from the window units. Also, the living room furniture not so comfortable. I wish there was a more comfortable fold out couch and side chairs. We spent a lot of time in this area and it was just hard to get comfortable. Last, no extra linens. If you book, bring extra blankets, sheets, etc there’s none.

Appliances were broken. The dishwasher wasn't useful. The washer dryer combo's door wasn't latching correctly, we had to set the trash can in front if it.The air conditioners were leaking on the floors. I ordered a body board and didn't get, I was told it would be at our door at 12 - 1pm and it didn't show. I called to check on it and i got a automatic answering machine saying no one was available and I still got charged for it. It was nice to have a home setting and the grocery store near by. The restaurants were great and the local coffee shop. I just would have liked to have a better functioning place to stay plus for the money we spent. It's not ideal for a easy going vacation we had in mind.

They were super kind and accommodating—definitely 5 stars for customer service! Based on how I was treated, I’d consider coming back just for that reason.However, the listing wasn’t accurately described. The space is very small, and climbing three flights of stairs without an elevator was tough—especially with kids and luggage. The area around the entrance felt unsettling, with questionable activity nearby. There's a late-night grocer around the corner, but unfortunately, it attracts a number of individuals who made us feel unsafe.Parking was also a challenge, with no free options nearby. The closest garage is two blocks away and costs 25 a day. On the plus side, the loft itself was reasonably clean.All in all, I was not impressed. I’d rate the building 2 stars and the location just 1 star.

Don't stay here

I booked this place thinking it was going to be an amazing trip. Boy was I wrong, not only was the loft not what the pictures described but it had a horrible odor and the elevator didn't work. Our loft was on the third floor and the stairs sound and felt like you where going to fall though them at any moment. Within a few minutes of me walking in I had trouble breathing from the smell. The furniture had all kind of stains it was horrible. The tub had mold all around it and the floors where disgusting. I tried call someone and they kept hanging up in my face. Then I checked my account to find out to find out that they keep hitting my account for way more than I even knew. I wouldn't advise anyone to rent this loft or from these people *SCAM*

We stay in Galveston regularly and this was our second time at League Lofts and despite there being many options of accommodations on the island we cannot avoid the urge to return to the lofts. This trip was for a combination of work and play but we were able to fit everything and then some into our schedule due to the location. The lofts are extremely well kept up and make us feel at home every time. This is a standard that STR's should aspire to, until next time League Lofts. Thank You a ton!

Nice place

For two couples it worked perfectly for a night before a cruise place to stay. Close to all the restaurants. Would recommend another area like a vanity with a mirror and chair so that someone can get ready while the other is in the bathroom as there is only one bathroom with the only mirror. Bummed there wasn’t an elevator but it is what it is. Check in process was easy. Overall, great place for a quick trip.
