Wow!!
I had a feeling from the pictures that it was going to be a nice place but both my girlfriend and I were truly blown away. First off, Angie was super warm and welcoming when we arrived. Speaking of which, Mike, the manager allowed us to check in early which was really nice too. The room was small but that’s what I expected. It had a nice sized fridge, Keurig, and microwave. It also had other appliances like a toaster and blender which I didn’t notice until I was leaving. There was also a nice sized sink to wash the plates and silverware they included. The only suggestion is to maybe include a hot plate and pots/pans. I never used the appliances but they looked brand new. The bathroom was nice and clean. The shampoo, conditioner, and body wash were nice-sized. There was also a washer/dryer that was accessible in the complex as well. They included two washer pods. The lock system to the entrance and room felt very safe too. The TV was a great size and included cable and apps to some streaming services, that you’d have to use your own personal accounts. There was also a nice signal for the WiFi. The main thing I was concerned about was the street parking, but it was very easy to find spots. Lastly I loved how the complex was so close to so many things either by car or even walking. This is my new go-to place when I go to Galveston. I won’t be staying in hotels anymore.

Easy place for staying before a cruise
We got in to Houston in the evening and just needed a place to stay before cruising the next day. It is basically a bedroom with a mini kitchen. Clean and nice, all we needed. We ordered a pizza and watched a little tv. Ordered an uber for the next day and it was pain free and easy.

Nice and clean efficiency
Nice place to stay for one night or so, but on a busy corner, so very loud especially in the evening. Plus, if room is near door to outside, there is a lot of traffic in and out of the building.
