Condo was as shown. Very basic amenities, but fit our needs. Towels were a little tired and the sheets for the pull out did not fit well. Comfortable queen bed! Loved the location next to the pool. Would stay again.

Very roomy one bedroom in a great location across the street from the Seawall Beach and just out our back door was the condo area pool. The kitchen was larger than expected and there was a good amount of kitchen stuff..pots and pans etc. Even had supplies for laundry. We had a great time and will return to Galveston and to this unit if we can.

Location in town and to Walmart is great. The pictures didn't match the accommodations. It could use a deep clean. Hosts communicated well.

This was a great place to stay! Very conveniently located next to the beach and two beautiful swimming pools! The condo itself could use some updating. I was disappointed not to be able to open the windows to get fresh air in the evenings and mornings (they didn’t open or were locked with notes not to open them). The air was musty inside. But they had all the basic supplies and the layout was nice. The queen size bed was very comfortable. I’d definitely stay here again!
