House is much larger than it appears, lots of space for a family gathering. There is no kitchen table and though the island has stools there were not enough for us to enjoy a game night. Patio lights shine into the bedrooms, never found light switch to turn off the big patio light. Ended up buying cheap paper blinds to block light.Floors need better cleaning, my toddler grandchildren's feet were black after running around barefoot soon after they arrived. All in all we had a great time.

We enjoyed our stay in Galveston very much! The kids loved the game room! It was a huge hit! The house was clean & inviting. There were a few disappointments that could be addressed that would have made the stay even better. The pool was extremely cloudy & there was trash and cigarette butts around the fire pit.

The house was disgusting! The pictures definitely need to be updated. The patio furniture was weathered, the house was full of mold. The cleaning people missed obvious areas and the best thing is it has ROACHES!

Cleanliness was a huge problem. Floor was very dirty when we got there..Took a shower and my feet were filthy after 15 minutes of walking around on the day we got there. Found dead & live roaches. Thr shower curtain was held up by 3 rings, so everything got wet. The 2nd bathroom floor, was cracked and broken and presented a hazard because it was warped and sticking up. No throw blankets or rugs like the pic shows. It is a cute house and the pool made staying worth it for the gkids.

The house was nice. A few minor scuffs, standing water in the bathtub, and a shower curtain with only 3 hooks is my only complaint. The back yard is smaller than it appears. Or more of the layout. The pool was great and beds were comfy. The house stays nice and cool at 72 degrees. We mainly slept and ate breakfast there. The Kitchen is equipped with all the utinsils you need to cook. The driveway is pretty small so have to maneuver your cars in there if you have 4 and don't wanna park on the street. Its a corner house in a neighborhood so its pretty private and no disturbances. Great place to stay with family if you have kids. They can all pile in the game room. 3 King Beds was a plus. Overall a good stay. Would stay again if they fixed the tub drain.

Pre cruise trip

Decided to spend a few days in Galveston before boarding a cruise ship. House was is a good location, some of the beds and mattresses left some to be desired. The tub sower combo was great. Could use some towel racks and toilet paper holders though. Overall it was a good experience.
