Galveston Beach Hotel
The area was not to bad . Just wished the room was a little bit cleaner . It smell like someone left a wet towel through the night . Also you have very small hard pillows. You should feel more comfortable but it was ok. The staff was very helpful and very friendly.

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Galveston West Seawall
Arrived and informed that didn’t have a reservation. I showed my confirmation etc for my reservation. The desk clerk was rude. Finally they found my reservation listed under my first name.. Still a jerk. The room was so humid my clothing that I hung up felt damp the next morning. I will never stay ...
