Few days with granddaughter

This was during a cold snap in Galveston and my granddaughter was delighted to swim in the heated pool! The property had all the amenities we needed and she especially enjoyed the bunk cubby to play in. it was comfortable and clean. It is a small unit, which was ok with us.

Beautiful view

The hotel stay was overall good. But needing certain accommodations like additional clean towels and linens could have been easier if we had access to the storage unit initially but when we called support they assisted us without hesitation. We had easy access to multiple tourists attractions and food venues. Lots of entertainment for the kids as well.
