Very clean and great location. Kitchen was fully stocked and had coffee (Thank You, needed the coffee). The only odd thing was the bathroom as it was off the master bedroom and as a little challenging for other guest to use at night. Overall great place, secure and safe.

Nice and clean. A few wine glasses would be nice. Bed and sheets in on suite left a little bit to be desired. I would stay again though.

Beautiful apartment in a neat old building close enough to the strand that we were able to walk. Far enough from the beach to not be “busy.” Loved hearing the church bells close by.

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 :)

Perfect Location on the Strand

We booked this VRBO for a birthday trip and it exceeded expectations! Perfect location within walking distance of many different restaurants, the beach, and lots of entertainment. We were also able to bring our furry friend, which made our trip that much better! I would definitely recommend!
