The Property was very clean and near a lot of restaurants that were near to walk to. The Host was super friendly and very helpful for anything we needed and recommendations for activities to try and restaurants in the area. I recommend travelers to stay here if you are traveling in Galveston to take a cruise. The property is very close to the Galveston Cruise port terminal and I would definitely stay here again.

Cleanliness needs improvement, hair and dust, steins on bed sheets. No window in the room - this should have been highlighted when booking.

This is a lovely historic property. Our room was on the main floor and even with foot traffic going up & down the stairs outside our room, it was quiet. For breakfast, you had a choice of five menu options that you could customize if you wanted. I opted for the French toast while my husband had the scrambled eggs with ham & green peppers. Both were delicious. If we are ever back in Galveston, we will be staying here!
