Not pleasant stay :-(
We park our car outside in a very busy street, it was kind of dangerous trying to get in or out of the car because of the traffic, but the disappointing issue was when we open the door of the bungalow and this humid musty odor get into out noses, the place sould be cute, but definitely needs new carpet, furniture and renovation, the fridge was moldy! As well as the AC grills (thats unhealthy) And there were no pressure of water at all! It was impossible to shower Since just a little bit of water came of the shower!, so we borrowed a plastic jar and a plastic cupfrom the kitchen to catch water in it and that was the only way to shower!! It was very very disappointing,

Bishop Bungalow
The Bishop Bungalow is a beautiful home built in pre-1900. The managers Randy and Claire are amazing! The only issue had nothing to do with the stay but Evolve Rental agency that changed the VERBO fees agreed on originally! All in all I will happily return and book through Claire and Randy!

Bishop's Bungalow
Very nice apartment! Several breakfasts on sunny front porch, nicely stocked kitchen, comfy beds, plenty of extra linens, towels, etc. In the heart of Galveston's historic district, so many pleasant walks in the area.... great restaurants nearby. Thanks Randy and Claire!
