We booked this for two nights prior to getting on a cruise ship. It worked out perfectly. The host was easy to contact and allowed us to stay an extra hour for our boarding time. Great little place fully stocked. The weather was not that great, but we were able to walk around Galveston quite a bit. Would definitely stay here again.
