My favorite Hotel in Galveston Texas
"All the employees had a positive attitude. Alex, Felix and Jessie were all on top of their game and very accommodating. The bedding and bed were the most comfortable. The only thing my wife and I disliked was the toilet paper; it was like 40-grit sandpaper, so bring your own."
