Dirty
Body hair and yuck in all the sheets. Neighborhood sketchy. Older persons may not like because of steep stairs. Upon arrival the door was wide open (literally) We had to have home searched before we let anyone in.

Overall pleased with stay
We chose this property as an overnight stay to allow us to be in Galveston the next morning for our wedding. The property host accommodated very well. The location is just around the corner from the sea wall. The inside of the house looks newly renovated and was very clean. Overall a great stay.
