Though the furnishings throughout the property were very dated, the room we had was very clean! The location is perfect! We used the free ferry service from Bolivar to Galveston. This hotel is right out the gates from the ferry, making it so convenient! We were able to bypass Houston completely by using the ferry.

Front desk clerk was very nice. The room was clean and served its purpose. Our stay was a last minute decision to go to the beach and then decided we wanted to stay the night.

Good for the price. Building and interior a bit worn. Breakfast and dining area are nice and we really like that they allow cruise parking. Stayed here more than 20 times and will probably stay here again.

Needs to be updated

Hotel is old and smells bad. The air conditioner doesn't get very cold even on the lowest setting. No elevator all rooms on 2nd or 3rd floor. Breakfast is frozen waffles and cereal.

We’ve stayed at this property many times for many years when we cruise. This is the first time we were overcharged almost $20 per night. We usually only stay one night but this time we decided to come early to see more of Galveston. Very disappointed in being charged more fees. When I questioned at registration, I was told Expedia didn’t charge the right amount in taxes. I called Expedia, they couldn’t reach the property by phone, never called me back. I, also, asked for the Inn’s owner to call me back, but didn’t. I have future reservations already booked at this property but will start looking to book at other properties.
