The beds were comfortable. 1. The smell of the cleaning chemicals in the room was too strong. 2. The breakfast was very limited. 3. There is no parking space in the front and too narrow. 4. Entrance to the Hotel is thru a restaurant with a lot of traffic and difficult to get in and out.

It’s convenient and a great price. The beds are horribly uncomfortable and I think they need to let the bedding dry a bit longer , the last 2 visits, the bedding was a bit damp, when we turned back the beds.

Hotel staff called us about 6 times telling us there were complaints about people jumping in the room. It was only my husband and I, and he fell asleep as soon as we got there. The room next to us had several kids and you can hear them jump. I told staff that when they called; however they still kept calling us. Instead of them going to the room next door they harassed my husband and me.

Unfortunately, this Super 8 motel was totally different from the Super 8 motel on Northpark Drive in Kingwood, TX. The biggest difference is all the rooms at Super 8 in Galveston face the parking lot, not an interior hallway like in Kingwood. I was assigned room #101 in Galveston, which must be the only room with no peep hole. Fortunately, I had no security issues and housekeeping only knocked on my door once. I had an issue keeping the “do not disturb” sign on the outside of my door as the south wind kept blowing it off. I found it laying in the grass and used some clear Gorilla tape to keep it attached to the door handle. I noticed that Galveston was still an old city - not embracing new technology. I would have liked to do laundry but the motel only had one washer and one dryer and it was in a room separate from the lobby but was only open 7am-10pm. I was shocked how few laundromats Galveston had and none near the hotels on 61st Street. I do not plan on vacationing in Galveston again anytime soon. I do look forward to my next stay at Super 8 in Kingwood.

Se va la luz muy seguido, el precio de fin de semana es al doble de entre semana , a las 11 te tienes que salir puntual , el aseo lo tienes que solicitar, no lo hacen si no les dices , algo prepotentes las empleadas , no hay amabilidad, creo trabajan a fuerza , 2 estrellas es lo más que yo les daría.

Good location near Seawall. Older property, walls are paper thin. There were people standing outside their doors smoking illegal w**d. Pool area very clean and nice. Standard free breakfast. Less than enthusiastic staff. Overpriced but for one night okay. We would not chose to stay there again.

Needs updating. Bed is hard. Pillows flat linens scratchy and roaches in the room. I think they have plumbing issues. But it was a one night stay before our cruise and it was cheap so there’s that.

The hot water on full blast was just barley above freezing I have taken "cold showers" that was warmer. TV would work about 20 minutes and then go off. The fridge didn't work. The bed was so hard uou could not rest well. The shower had long black hair in it when we checked in

The room was fine and comfortable. I was disappointed in the "jacked up price" I had to pay to reserve what normally costs much less than $138 just because the weather was questionable for travel and we were scheduled to leave Galveston the next morning on a cruise.

I sent note via Expedia to say I didn’t need the reservation, in case someone else needed a room due to the storm, and they’ve been emailing me a bill almost every 30mins since while I was travelling and overnight. I had assumed the payment would have been processed through Expedia…. Quite aggressive

I reserved an accessible room. When I got to my room it was not. I called the front desk and was told that my room was being worked on. No problem. But would have been nice if they told me upfront and apologized instead of silence and a surprise. Room was clean and acceptable though.

The front desk was defiantly unhelpful and seem to take pleasure in screwing me out of some money. The absolute worst customer service imaginable. The room was barely adequate and the breakfast was terrible. Hard to see how they could have done worse. Stay away.
- 4/5
Great location the staff I met so far have been very polite I didn’t go to breakfast but I would say don’t expect a full course meal but the area was very clean i also suggest not getting the room right next to the office because you can hear the people who do get breakfast through the wall but the place is definitely a place i recommend staying if you on a budget or quick last minute getaway and the Waffle House is in walking distance same parking lot actually

staff was rude I was not told ahead of time a hold of the room rate was going to be taken then after I checked in they charged my card again and it took a week before hold was released back into my account when I talked to the staff she was rude and practically scolded me for trying to contact management for help with my issue....id rather pay a little more and stay in a friendly place with no holds placed on my accounts

Complained of noise people running around all night upstairs but was told next day that they checked and they found only people asleep. Really???? I was kept up past midnight and got very little sleep. They refused to give me a refund and offered only $20 for inconvenience. Good location near beach but deal with rudeness. I would not recommend staying here.

Discussed with staff, then assistant manager, who had an attitude and said “so, did you end up in a room?” as if to suggest that the experience getting to a moldy room was a non-issue. Very argumentative, attempted to justify company/staff issues as if that was my concern. If this place tries to charge more than $79-100 for its 1.5star accommodations, you will be paying too much.

Got to room found king bed and love seat. Thought child could sleep on loveseat. No additional bedding. 2 pillows on bed and nothing extra. Went back to ask for bedding told they had a sheet and nothing else. No blankets no pillows. Hubby waited until next staff arrived and at least got a pillow. Woke up ready for their breakfast to find mini muffins, juice and coffee. Nothing else at all!!! Had to walk to Waffle House and getting our grandson something to eat. Not expecting that at all. Returned and booked a Uber to get out of here for the day. Got back to still dirty room. Grabbed food from grocery store next door to warm in microwave. Which we had to clean noticing Rust throughout. Ugh! Thank gosh we get to leave soon. Definitely disappointing stay. No USB in room Beds very uncomfortable Run down and depressing No food for breakfast Unfriendly staffing

We were pleasantly surprised by how clean and nice this hotel was considering how inexpensive it was! We just stayed the night before our cruise left, but were able to walk to a nice dinner and enjoy our morning before heading to the port. And the staff was very fun and helpful. We will always stay here the night before our cruises.

- 2/5
little front room area with a couch and table the adjacent area had the bed, a dresser, TV, coffee maker, fridge and microwave. So everything you could need. THE ONLY BAD THING was as soon as you opened the door to the room that musky, moldy smell hit you straight in the face. IT WAS HORRIBLE. There is an absolute mold issue. Not sure it if is in the walls or in the A/C unit but the whole room stunk to include the bedding. My husband woke up with a total swollen face especially around the eyes we are guessing from an allergic reaction to the mold due to having to breathe through a C-Pap machine and it intensifying the stench. We can't complain about the cleanliness except the mold. The offered breakfast as it was called consisted of some mini muffins, coffee and juice. Which was not even worth the stepping into the lobby area. Might as well just stop serving period. We walked over to the WaffleHouse. which brings us to the very convenient area this hotel is located to stores, restaurants and even a Krogers as well as the convention center are in walking distance. I would stay there again IF the MOLD would not be an issue.

When I checked into the hotel, everything was nice but when I went to my room, there was the fire alarm beeping I told them and I waited till 5 o’clock for them to come fix it and reset it. He reset it and he said if that didn’t take care of, it would be internal that have to switch me rooms. It was fine until 2 o’clock in the morning and then it went off every 30 seconds All night long I went and told the front desk person and that she said there was nothing they could do. I didn’t sleep from 2 o’clock until I checked out this morning very disappointed that they wouldn’t compensate or take care of anything, especially since it was a problem from the very beginning
