Great location on the Seawall and near by everything. Clean, ac worked well, plenty of free parking and for the price, it’s good for what you get. I wouldn’t pay more than $100 and it’s great for budget travel.

We have stayed here twice, and it’s been great each time. You’re definitely not staying at the Ritz, but it’s also way cleaner, more kept, and safer than a disgusting motel in Galveston. Galveston is super hit or miss with h/motels. This place is affordable, clean, close to some spots, and RIGHT in front of the beach! Definitely will be back for a third time.
