    The host was responsive from the moment I booked. Easy check-in and easy check-out. It was our first time being in Galveston. We wanted to explore the town, but since we only had one night at the property, we wanted to enjoy the amenities and the ambience of the property.

    You state there are 3 parking places but there is only ONE‼ There is only room for one car between the red marked curbs in front and you cannot park in the driveway because it blocks the sidewalk. The parking police told me he would give me a ticket if I parked there.You have shuffleboard but cannot play because there isn’t enough waxy granules to make the pucks slide.There are no towel racks in either bathroom so you have to put them on the floor or take them with back to your bedroom.We would not stay here again even for a lesser price…..

    I think the parking was our only issue. But we made it happen by parking behind the car in the drive. One across from the house.

    Old of course but needs a lotta work on outside. Outdoor furniture had dirt & leaves all over it. Underpinning on house loose all around .Needs a paint job & wood floor inside needs caulk ( can see thru in places). And parking instructions say you can park in driveway in front but don’t . We got a 75 ticket. Only other parking is on street which I checked several times nightly. Beds were comfortable tho . Upstairs got hot by lunch but cooled off in time for bed. Location worked great for us

    Cute house, nice location to cruise port- walking distance!

    Our group had a fantastic time at this beautiful and well-maintained house. The A/C was a lifesaver and kept the house incredibly comfortable throughout our stay. The clean bathrooms and spacious, fully-equipped kitchen were both major highlights. The common spaces are generous and easily accommodate a large group. We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood and found ample parking on the street across from the house. A minor point of feedback is related to parking: a heads-up in the house manual that the driveway blocks a public walkway would be a great addition, as we were ticketed. Other than that, we had a very pleasant and restful stay.

    check in was fine. kitchen and bathrooms were clean enough, but not great. we opted to NOT eat here and ate out instead. One of the pedestal sinks had a leg broken off and propped up in corner by toilet. I loved the idea of historic charm, but there was no charm, just dirty/run down. Especially the furniture in living room and bedrooms. Couch was stained and had torn cushions. outdoor furniture was filthy so we did not use it. Water pressure was terrible. Just a trickle in the sink when showering. Both bathroom doors were almost impossible to open/close which was problematic for our group of 15. Not one single extra towel or washcloth in the house. The pictures showed table with enough chairs to accommodate our large group, but there were only 5 chairs at table upon arrival. One extra was found in a bedroom upstairs. Curtains were falling off the rods in all upstairs bedrooms. Upon arrival, one of the upstairs windows was open, so it was super warm in that room. Floor rug in downstairs bedroom was curled up, creating a tripping hazard for the older couple staying in here. Bunk bed ladders were detached and nails were poking out in upstairs bedroom. Was okay for the one night we stayed, but I would not stay here again for the price we paid (1150 for one night). Would do separate hotel rooms. Cockroach crawled out of wall into shower while one guest was showering. Would NOT recommend to a friend to stay here.
