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.

All the employees were very nice. This property is run down and needs a lot of repair. They do have covered parking for free that’s a plus. I wish I would have paid a bit more to be closer to the Seawall, instead, we paid a lot for Uber rides.

Excellent value!!

I stay here every time I go on a cruise because they have free cruise parking… The hotel is a bit older and the rooms reflect its age, but they’re fairly clean and very comfortable! We’ll definitely stay here again soon!

20th century Upgrade

Old building that should be totality rebuilt to accommodate the present lodging amenities of the 20th century being located at the entrance & exit point of the Galveston ferry depot. The lodging rates not don’t measure up to the accommodations or amenities of present day times.

Clean remodeled room with tile flooring, with microwave and fridge. I did not see an iron or ironing board, but that was ok for one night. Great deal for lodging and parking while cruising for 9 days. If you are looking for a budget-friendly place, this is it. They offer transportation arrangement with a third party to the port, you sign in upon check in, and they will pick you up and take you to your cruise very affordable.

Stay was ok but when I got back from my cruise I had charges from hotel on my card for damages to a curtain that was damaged already from my previous stay in December. The rooms need updated water pressure and hot water needs repairs as well as new curtains and shades hung especially if they gonna try to charge for something that’s already trashy and old
