Galveston Beach Hotel
Always clean, great location and friendly staff. We love staying here but the last 2 times you can tell is not being maintained as it could be. Shower head is so old, Shower curtain is almost ripped off the rod, the ac unit kept throwing the breaking switch on the plug and shutting off. I hope something ...
