This place has been ravaged by hurricanes in the past, so the smell of mold and musk has taken over, to the point that you can't breathe. The owners really need to address this issue. The owners and their help are really nice people and do their best to help if needed. If you can tolerate all of the issues with this place, it is a good place to stay for cruise access. Parking is free and there is a shuttle service available to and from your cruise, which works out great. Remember that you are only spending the night and your free parking is up to eight days.

It was a lot nicer than last year, we enjoyed our stay. They also let us park our vehicle there while we were on the cruise, which I appreciate.

The staff were very friendly, and it felt like a safe area. The pool was very clean as well. As for the room, it was not what I expected. I saw a previous review about roaches and unfortunately, it’s true. You are given a WiFi password however the internet does not work in your room. Most people probably stay here because it is very close to the cruise terminal if that’s what your looking for.

My mom & I stayed here one night before our cruise. It isn’t a terrible hotel, definitely outdated & could use some renovating. We didn’t experience a problem while stating. The breakfast included little boxes of cereal & pre packaged danishes. We decided to stay here because it was cheaper than other hotels, but I’d say for the price we paid…The hotel overall isn’t worth the price!

The first room i was given had one dead and one very alive cockroach inhabiting it. The smell of the room was musty, old, mildewy. I've stayed here for the free cruise parking twice but just cant stomach it afyer the most recent stay.

This was a great place to stay before our cruise. Our room was very clean, quiet and comfortable. We did not hear the ferry at all. The wonderful gentleman at the front desk was so kind and helpful. It was a bonus that we were able to leave our car here while we were on our cruise. I will definitely stay here again the next time I am in Galveston.
