Hyvää: Siisteys, sisäänkirjautuminen, viestintä ja sijainti
Tons of potential, fell short
The great:
The location - I was really hesitant on the location being too far from the actual beach, but the beach access is really good by car, was quiet (shocking for a July 4th trip!).
The pool - Elevated. Fun!
—
The good:
The house - better layout and configuration than expected. The kitchen / dinner / living space is a bit cramped. Balconies awesome, uncomfortable seating. Theme inside: cheap.
—
The bad:
The fridge - was seemingly functional, but clearly was not getting cold enough. Unsafe for food storage. Coldest it ever got was 55 degrees. No help arrived during our trip and no offer to reimburse us for our ice expenses.
—
The ugly:
The listing - shows the elevator in the pictures, but it is NOT available for use. Be prepared to lift all your stuff up a long flight of stairs. I’ve never had the elevator not allowed before in Galveston rentals. Hot tub either doesn’t work or no instructions provided. Sewage smell from septic, possibly full? Again nothing done during our stay. House only provided a pitiful amount of toilet paper / paper towels etc. No dish soap. Never have been provided so little in a rental before. Grills are absolute joke, barely holding to together / sized for ants.
All in all, we really enjoyed our time, but the choices made by owner / management are concerning. This place could be a knockout stay if minor cheap fixes were implemented. Hopefully these issues get addressed, but being aware when booking is half the battle!
