Spring break on the strand

Loved the historical aspect. Kids loved arcade games and bunk beds. Super spacious. Only issue was hearing lots of other people in apartments but just comes with the nature of loft life.

Perfect for an overnight getaway!

What a great location for an overnight trip to celebrate our son’s 13th birthday with a few of his friends. Staying somewhere with character that’s a straight shot from Pleasure Puer and right on the strand was super convenient. The shower was hot, the AC was cold, the beds were comfortable, and the arcade games were a cherry on top.

Galveston Trip

The condo was very clean, nice, and aesthetic. It was very comfortable and had everything needed to enjoy the stay. Our family likes to take breaks and enjoy our room while on vacation, the nice tv’s and comfortable couch and room made that very enjoyable as well. A few downsides, but I wouldn’t say dealbreakers are that in order to get to the room you have a steep flight of stairs that were a bit difficult for my mother in law to get up and down. Parking was limited to the road out front, it wasn’t impossible to park, but the city signs make you think you need to move your vehicle. The checkin and checkout instructions seemed to be written for multiple properties and maybe didn’t pertain to the particular one we were staying in. Anywhere you stay there will be positives and negatives, but our overall experience was great.

Easter Getaway

Our family of 5 booked this rental for Easter weekend. The location downtown was nice but parking was tricky as there was limited street parking avaiable. We eventually found a parking spot about a block away and my husband was able to move the car closer to the rental late in the evening. The apartment is up a steep flight of stairs. Once we entered the apartment, is was just as pictured. The space is large and has all the items needed to prepare meals. It was extra nice that there were spices like salt, pepper and garlic available. When we arrived the rental had a terrible odor. We did purchase a room deodorizer at the grocery store because the smell was pretty strong. We opened the window in the living room and that helped. With the fans on and the window open for a few hours, the smell improved.As for the beds, I was very impressed with the mattress topper in the master bedroom. Very comfortable. Our kids also slept well in the bunks. We loved the look of the rental and it served as a perfect location for our family Easter. The location was quiet and felt safe. I would recommend to others traveling to Galveston.

Adorable Loft with Great Location (but)...

This adorable loft looks just as pictured and is in a wonderful location with an easy walking distance to many restaurants and shopping at "The Strand." If you are highly allergic to mold / mildew, be warned that there is a strong odor of it as soon as you enter the front door and you can visibly see it throughout the loft. I figure this is a common thing to deal with in a beach town and older building. Although we loved the loft & location, I couldn't stay here again because of the mold / mildew, due to my asthma. And even though the loft felt clean otherwise, there were several large urine stains from pets all over the master bedroom rug. :X
