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.

Disliked: Cleanliness
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.

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!

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.
