The Betty exceeded our expectations! Super clean and well appointed. Comfortable and plenty of seating in the living room. Has a coffee bar for whenever you want coffee! Beds were comfortable and stayed a comfortable temperature during our stay. The host was very friendly and made sure we had all of the info we needed prior to our stay. He was very helpful! Would definitely recommend The Betty! Great location to the Seawall, main street, and anywhere you might want to go! Great Galveston getaway!

The property location, cleanliness, listing accuracy, and amenities were all great. Big bonus that the home was pet friendly and had enough beds/bedrooms to support a family vacation. Thank you for a wonderful stay in Galveston!

Neat house

This is a neat house! Very cool vibe. It is well stocked with dishes and some consumables. No toaster though. The driveway is useless as only the smallest of cars would fit. Maybe a smart car! The beds are very high so if you are unable to climb, this house isn’t for you. The highest of them all was the downstairs bed. Two of the burners on the stove do not work. The checkout procedure is a little much. We’ve stayed in a lot of short term rentals and this is the first one we’ve been required to strip all the beds of linens and place in the laundry room. Seems like that’s part of what we pay for in the host fees. The lock on the front door is very scratched up and difficult to see the digital numbers through. Also, do not try to get in early. There is a ring camera there and is being monitored. We arrived a little early and wanted to see if we could go ahead and get in. We were immediately sent an email asking if we wanted an early check in, with a fee attached, I’m sure. Overall, we enjoyed our stay but will not be renting this home again when we return for our annual trip next year.

Great for Grandmas Getaway, Too!

The Betty is clearly loved and very well-taken care of! Just as any ol'gal ought to be! Every bed is comfortable, the house is cool and comfortable, the refrigerator is large and accommodated plenty of food for the weekend. And the walk to the seawall is safe and very short - it is less than 7 minutes! Surprised how quiet the street is and with little to no traffic. We will book again!
When it rained, we enjoyed painting at the nice, large table.
The Betty is so lovely! We hope to revisit soon!

The Betty was awesome. It housed 3 generations for our first ever fishing trip together. It was comfortable, affordable, and the location was close to everything g we needed. Thank you for allowing us to have that opportunity. Communication with owner was quick. Would highly recommend!!
