Unclean & Unresponsive
So badly wanted to like this property but struggling to even give it 3 stars. The Good: Spacious, great location to the Strand The Bad: Dirty (especially bathroom and windows), worn, pics make property look newer than it is (kitchen cabinets for example), zero insulation to outdoor noise, too much light filtering in at night due to old, worn blinds. The WORST part is that we were unable to shower because there was no hot water. While mgt responded fairly quickly, there was no resolution. They even asked us to check the hot water heater (which was located 12 feet overhead in a cabinet that no would could reach without a ladder). Made request for partial refund and still no response after 10 days. Many improvements needed to make this great potential stayable for our family.

Great location!
We had the best time! We stayed here the night before our cruise and I love that you could see the cruise ship out the front window the next morning! Close to downtown, family friendly! Host got back to me within the hour when I had some questions.

Comfy, spacious, close to the port!
Our time in Galveston was cut short due to a missed flight and having to fly to a different airport, but our night spent at this unit was a welcomed relief to the chaos of the day! When my family (2 adults, 3 teens) arrived, we had all the info we needed to make our way straight up to the unit. The communication with the host was fantastic, very kind. We had a tiny issue on the street, trying to figure out which outside door was the right one. It was late and the address numbers were hard to see in the shadows of the door frame. But once we got that figured out, it was a smooth check-in. We were pleased to enter and find a clean, spacious unit that matched the photos in the listing. The open floor space was especially nice for being able to open up our suitcases and get organized for the next day. The beds were very comfortable. We all slept great. My husband, being 6’5”, was glad to have a king size bed. The street can be loud at times. It’s an old building. You can hear motorcycles revving, trucks taking off from the corner, etc. It didn’t keep us up at night, but just be aware of this. The a/c unit kept it cool. The couch is big & comfy. My teens had plenty of room to lounge. Suggestion- a throw blanket would be a nice addition to the couch. The next day we were able to walk to the cruise port, which I hadn’t anticipated, so it saved us an Uber. A nice surprise! I’d recommend this place to anyone visiting Galveston. Thank you for an stress-free, comfortable stay!

Royal Caribbean Spring Break
Very spacious and clean. The bed in master was comfortable and the children slept well in the full sized bunk beds. It would be very nice to have had two bath rooms with shower and vanity. The stairs are a challenge to negotiate with heavy luggage (or no luggage at all). Two of the boards are cracked and seemed to be on the verge of breaking. We have stayed with you on two occasions now and knew what to expect. Very convenient to the Royal Caribbean port.

Great location just off the strand, tall ceilings made the space feel majestic. Dog friendly. Clean, comfortable beds, very spacious. Great open concept kitchen with a large island and a dining table with seating for six. Corner unit with lots of large windows and natural light. I wish they had some hooks to hang dog leashes or towels.

Galveston retreat
Exactly like the pics. 90% clean . (Carpet needs vacuuming; upside down coffee cups were sticking to shelf, rims were dirty). Very spacious. Bed clean and very comfy. Several available movie stations!! Loved that we could walk over to the Strand and found a couple of great restaurants. Overall excellent experience!

Enjoyed with Issues
Overall, we enjoyed our stay. Loved the loft, the location and the vibe of The Strand. My critiques include small shower and bathroom, difficulty with lockboxes and taking our trash home with us. I would stay again in one of your lofts with a roomier bathroom and shower.

A little downtime
I stayed at the loft apartment while my wife was on a cruise with our daughter. The loft is nice and the only pain was re-parking the car every two hours between 9:00am and 6pm to keep from getting a parking ticket. Other than that I really enjoyed the property and location.
