It was the only place that was affordable on the Island of Galveston over the 4th of July weekend.The room wasn't anything fancy but everything worked, the shower was great, the bed was comfortable and the room was the perfect temperature. The staff was very kind and friendly.

Staff was excellent extremely helpful The room itself was big no bedbugs and a huge bed TV worked along with AC This is a perfect spot if your not picky about what the furniture looks like and need cheap sleeping arrangements Will be back again!! Only remember they charge a deposit which is 20.00 but it does get reimbursed eventually.
I don’t want to add to the negativity, but I should have paid more attention to the reviews. I chose this place for its value but significantly underestimated the level of neglect when it comes to cleanliness. The central location is great, and the staff was helpful, but the cleanliness was a major disappointment.
The hotel staff were extremely friendly, helpful, and courteous! They went the extra mile to accommodate my need for an iron and ironing board as both were absent from the room. One has to go to the front desk and see if they are available. Also, one has to go to the front desk daily to exchange towels and wash cloths since housekeeping is non-existent. Other than that, everything else was acceptable.

This place is definitely being remodel and will be fantastic once fully done.. I will say that my girls and I had a fantastic stay. All the staff were so nice and helpful! I will definitely stay again!
*I have a rare disease and always have to disinfect everything anytime I’m not home and I always bring my own bedding.. But again we will definitely be back soon!
VERY affordable… we only showered and slept there anyway!! NOT far from pretty much everything!
This place is a dump. The walls were full of hole from previous artwork being hung. The smell of weed from other guests was unpleasant. The carpet was filthy with hairballs under the sink. The check in staff was polite. Plenty of parking. Pretty quiet.
Air conditioning worked, area didn’t feel that safe and people were really loud and laughing loud with no regards to people sleeping, but the staff that checked us in was really nice.

A diamond in the rough with potential. If you just need a place to flop, sleep, have a hot shower and leave under 100.00$ this is the place when on Galveston Island. If you have issues with peeling paint on walls, etc. Then best to move on. Staff are polite, and helpful, parking is free and place is easy to find and less than 5 minutes away from the cruise terminals.
Positives : bed fairly comfortable , front desk staff friendly and helpful
Negatives: fridge dirty , mold on shower curtain all over bottom of it , room dirty and run down, had to walk to front desk to get all the towels , no microwave, only one lock , other lock broken, remote for tv did not work to shot off tv and volume bottom broken too ,smelled misty and wet , no light above bathroom sink , faucet on sink just dribbled out water , very sketchy part of town , could hear police sirens all night
No pillowcases. Beds had 1 sheet and 1 blanket. The towels were damp. Light in bathroom was burned out. Curtain did not close entirely.
The staff was polite.
The neighborhood was pretty sketchy.
It was a good stay! It was all right. There were some stains in the sheets, hairs on the towels, toilet seat was up with tp almost out when we checked in, the hair dryer didn’t work, and a couple other things. Overall the stay wasn’t bad, we felt safe, but just some of the amenities were kind of… ya know. Useless or used.. luckily my husband and I didn’t really need them as we were making a last minute decision to stay on the island for the night. But still surprised to see the things we did after staying at the Wyndham in Bay City, that one was REALLY nice and very pretty.
Bathroom door was off the hinges. Bed spreads were stained and had holes. There were no towels. The room was a bit scary but the staff was very helpful. Honestly it seemed like 2 random helpful dudes were trying to run a hotel that had be closed down. Super cheap so you get what you pay for.

Room was not very clean, tv didn't work, could hardly shut the bathroom door, no towels( had to go to the desk to get), no phone in room, blanket on bed had holes in it, no bedspread, could see outside on the underneath of air conditioner. Staff was perfect. Location for us was great, quiet at night, pool looked nice but we didn't use it.
This room was disgusting! Do not stay here especially if you have children. The room has not been cleaned in weeks, the tub and toilet was filthy, the floors where filthy. Nothing had been wiped down and we had roaches in the room, the furniture had rips and sheets had pieces of dead bugs. Mold was everywhere and door looked like it had been kicked in! Horrible horrible.
Dirty room, old worn out furniture, roach infested, no front desk service 24 hr. Would never return to this hotel, I would of rebooked elsewhere if rooms were available. Due to it being mardi gra had to bite the bullet.

The worst - no towels, washcloths or trash can. A Chipotle’s napkin was covering the smoke alarm and the security latch was ripped off from the door frame. Part of the curtain was hanging off the track and only a single fitted sheet. The front staff was pleasant though.
I hate to do this...but if your reading this...just go somewhere else. Run. Im pretty sure i need a tetnis shot and mileria or whatever else just from going in the room. Dirty bedding with hair on them still from previous guests. Pillows just thrown, not even arranged. One pillow had blood stains on it. Everything was stained. Fingernails on the floor, boogers on the shower curtain. Immediately went to walmart and bought a plastic sheet and comforter and new pillows and clorox wipes. Tore the blankets off the bed and slept on a plastic sheet, or tried to sleep. Horrible experience. And there was a couple staying there that said the same thing they were using their own blankets and sitting outside because they didn't want to catch anything. Definitely got catfished by the pictures on expedia but it is nothing like that. No shammies just nasty stained mattresses and stench. We also bought a candle to get mask the smell. So if your cool with all that then this is your place. Staff was nice though.
