Wasted money

It was Ok, but Kemah boardwalk closes all shops so there really is nothing to do unless you drive. I won’t stay there again. That’s a lot of money on a hotel that offers nothing for its customers.

The hotel sits right on the boardwalk. Its surrounded by restaurants and rollercoasters. The hotel's location is convenient for a quick trip to Houston and Galveston Island. The hotel staff exhibited great customer service.
