Overnight stay

It was a nice place close to many places to enjoy at walking distance, which makes up for not having a designated parking spot.

Galveston vacation

Great location in the middle of downtown Galveston. We were able to walk to anywhere in downtown within about 5-10 minutes. Close drive to the beach and other attractions in town. The apartment was just the right size for a family of 3 to relax in after a day out. Would recommend!

We had an overall great stay. Pretty clean and nice appliances. In a nice walkable area close to restaurants and shops. The only complaints I have are regarding the noise. The walls, ceilings, and floors are incredibly thin so it’s easy to hear others within the unit and building. Secondly, the listing wasn’t clear that the third bed is just a sofa with the back laid flat. Lastly, I wish the building was a bit more accessible. Having a ramp or elevator would have been great. Other than that, it was a nice experience and I wouldn’t mind booking again :)

Beautiful property, excellent location

We decided to head down to Galveston for a short stay. I found the property and it was in a perfect spot near the Strand. It is a historic building that has been perfectly updated. Host was responsive to questions and helpful. Highly recommend, will book again.

Cute Place!

Great location and cute place! We visited Galveston over the Christmas break and had a lovely time! This apt is on a quiet street and close to the Strand. The place it self is charming but a few things to note. Its an older building - the charm part - but can be loud. We woke up one morning and it sounded like someone was pacing above us in snow boots. Our unit was right by the top of the stairs so you could hear everyone walking up. Other than waking up early than we wanted to, we got used to it. The TV screen was messed up but hopefully thats an easy fix. Its a smart TV so we were able to watch our show - it just had a pink band acorss the top - again, got used to it! The price is a steal - would still recommend!

Great stay post Beryl

Our family hesitated to continue our stay since we were booked four days post Beryl. However, the company kept in communication to let us know that all was checking out at the VRBO and we were welcome to stay. We loved the historical building and the proximity to Restaurants and stores and bars near the Strand was wonderful and we walked everywhere. The amenities were perfect for our family of four. It covered everything we would need for our stay. I loved the option to use the bicycles in the lobby, but we had a six-year-old who wouldn’t fit on them so we didn’t use them, but it was a great option to have. Everything was clean. The only small thing I can say is that we were on the first floor and you can hear everything above you. And for whatever reason, whoever was staying above us did not share the same schedule as us and it made quite a bit of noise while we were sleeping. So suggestion is to get something on the top floor. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you for this great family vacation!

It was not the most Pleasant stay. We did not have hot water in bathroom the last two days and finally had some in sink this morning when we left. I’m not sure what the deal was. Maybe hot water ran out with others there?! Pilot light out?! Not sure. I was in contact with company and was told maintenance came out and we just needed to let water run. Not the case. Tried to explain that but no one came back out. We let it run and did not heat up. The place lacked cleanliness as well. The couch and rugs were stained. Not swept good and cockroach dead in floor. The stair climb was exhausting especially for my disabled vet. Wasn’t aware the elevator was not able to be used. So I’d say the bad overweighed the good at this particular place. It was my partners birthday so we tried to stay positive and laugh it off but it was quite disappointing!!!!

Unfortunately, the condition of the unit was far below acceptable standards, and we believe a partial refund is warranted.To summarize:•The couches were heavily stained and soiled.•Rugs were visibly dirty and appeared not to have been cleaned in quite some time.•White towels were yellowed and looked unsanitary.•Several exposed nails in the hardwood floors caused injuries to our feet.•The floors were dusty and filthy throughout the space.•The toilet chain was broken and required constant manual adjustments.•Most concerning, the front door to the building did not lock, presenting a clear safety hazard.We have photos documenting all of the above issues. This property was advertised at a standard of quality and safety that was clearly not met.I’m requesting that a portion of the rental fee be refunded due to the unsafe and unsanitary conditions.

LOVE this building & location! Very clean & mostly perfect for what we needed. Kitchen is amazing & very well stocked with amenities. Beds super comfortable!However, a few downsides that we weren’t expecting: the one bathroom is within one of the bedrooms, so guests not sleeping in that room had to come through it during the night. The loft also claims to sleep 5 but there was zero bedding provided for the sleeper sofa, so we had to purchase our own. Lastly, the toilet chain/float mechanism had multiple issues throughout our stay.All in all, we had a great trip & I trust that the very communicative landlords will address some of these negatives moving forward
