This is awesome place to stay! Good sized 2nd floor garage apartment & very cutely decorated. I walked to the beach and the hotel down the street a few times & it was an easy walk. The owners had extra touches and little freebies which made me feel welcome. I will definitely come back and stay here for another solo trip in the future.

We stayed for a long weekend and the property was perfect for us! I asked for recommendations for things to do and places to eat and Asta sent me a list through VRBO inbox prior to our arrival. She sent us all information to get into the property and was nice enough to leave snacks, a treat, a souvenir, half and half, and water in the fridge. Asta is a fantastic host and we appreciated her help! The property is about a block and a half from the beach and there are beach chairs, towels, a picnic basket, etc for use while staying. It's close to both the Strand (3 minute drive) and the sea wall (5 minute walk). Additionally, we appreciated how quiet the studio was, despite it being on a fairly busy road. We certainly enjoyed our stay and know you will, too! Happy travels!

Where do I start? Check in information was sent a day before. Access to the property was easy to follow. The property itself is located a couple a blocks from the beach. My husband & I were wowed when we entered. Immaculate, cute decor, written instructions and travel suggestions but we felt so at home! It was all the little details. From the welcome note, variety of coffee/ tea, the earplugs in the nightstands, the delicious cupcake/snacks, the games, the makeup wipes, the toiletries, the emergency flashlight... I mean EVERYTHING was thought of. Walking out to the balcony to have my morning coffee made me feel like it was perfect getaway! Thank you so much Asta!

The host was so helpful.it was quick and easy on check in. The house just as described. I was pleased how clean it was. The bed was comfortable. The A/C could've been better, but was tolerable. I like artic cold best the rate was high, but it's Galveston on a holiday weekend, so, maybe not. I will stay again.

The room is very well organized. There were a lot of amenities, including multiple charge outlets, a tv with multiple streaming channels, a nice drink and snack selection, water, and soaps. The balcony was also a nice hangout. Beach is a convenient walk away. The host is easy to contact through the app.

Nice place to stay, very clean and has everything you need, even chairs for the beach. It is just a short walk to the beach, souvenir shop and the galveston pier. The host was very courteous, left us a note about things going on in Galveston during our stay, responded to messages quickly. Would definitely stay again.

Our stay was pleasant and our host was readily available with any questions we had. Aside from the cleanliness, we were surprised at the amount of small amenities/supplies that were provided inside and around the property. Those small details are a nice touch. 10/10.
