Great location but noisy

We liked being able to walk to get food and explore. The place was great, my only complaint is that it was very loud. I could hear the footsteps of everyone in the building, and i could hear every single car and people talking outside. I only stayed one night and couldn't sleep because of the noise. If you aren't a light sleeper this shouldn't be a probkem for you, but if you have a baby, or if you have trouble sleeping through noises, I'd look somewhere else. Other than the noise, this was a great spot. It was charming and it had plenty of sleeping room!

Weekend away

The value and charm at this rental was wonderful. It was street light bright at night but just put towel over uncovered window in master and there were zero issues sleeping. Will definitely remember this location.

Birthday

2 couples, 78 yr old, celebrating a birthday. We enjoyed our stay. We had everything we needed and then some. Loved the walkability to the Strand…shops and restaurants. No complaints. Would stay here again….the only thing that could make it batter is an elevator….maybe some lamps in the living room for reading.

Great Place Near the Strand

Love the place and how it’s in the middle of everything from the Strand to the Pier. Only complaint was how noisy the street was outside the windows but that’s expected when staying anywhere downtown. Overall really great place and would stay again!

Great Location, but A Few Misses

Pre-arrival information was timely and informative. Loft was spacious, and a great location for Mardi Gras. A bit of room for improvement includes soap in the bathrooms - only one had 2 mini shampoos and 1 body lotion, and the other had nothing. Handtowels would have been nice, as only 1 towel and 1 washcloth per guest was available. Also, an extra blanket would have been nice, as the weather was quite cold during our stay. Lastly, check-in information was not sent as promised, but only after I messaged host to request it.and rainy during our sypguest

Galveston Stay

Overall, this was a nice two bedroom loft. There were 5 of us and we only stayed for the one night because of leaving the next morning on a cruise. Two things. There is not an elevator. We had some older ladies with us and lugging your luggage up the stairs was difficult. So if you have anyone who cannot climb stairs this is not the place for you. Also, the one bunk room has a bright light that shines in from the hall. It makes it difficult for sleeping. I had seen this in some of the other reviews and let me say it is bright. Lastly, the bunk bed itself is almost on the floor and is very hard to get up from as well as makes allot of noise. The ceilings are very tall so I would think a bunk a regular distance from the floor would not be an issue. I don't know that I would stay here again, especially because of the stairs and lack of elevator. There is not parking and at night that was an issue but we were able to figure something out.

Great location & lovely place

It is a lovely, well appointed, nicely updated apartment with historic charm in a great location with many restaurants within walking distance. We were only there one night before getting on a cruise - also within close proximity - but wish it could've been longer. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Not Perfect, but Good

The property was good, but didn't realize the only bathroom was en suite to the master, which made it awkward for our daughter and son-in-law who stayed with us. Also, the sofa was very uncomfortable to sit on. Check in was difficult. I sent an email asking about check in the day of the reservation. Was told it would be sent at 3:00 p.m. for 4 o'clock checking in. At 4:20 we still had not received check in information and had to request it again. Property was well located and very clean. Loved the history of the building. Not perfect, but good.

Noisy unit

The apartment was nice and well equipped. The bedroom with the three beds was very noisy at night due to the street traffic along with being brightly lit due to the hallway light shining threw the window. The second night we stayed the upstairs unit above us was stomping on the floor and singing until 2am and again at 6am the next morning.
