Home2 Suites By Hilton Galveston

10/10 Excellent

"The cleanliness of both the hotel and our room exceeded our expectations. Everything was spotless and very well cared for."

Gaido's Seaside Inn

4/10 Poor

"I had such high hopes due to the reviews I saw, but it was horrendous. We were covered in gnats the ENTIRE TIME. I couldn’t even take a shower to feel clean because they were in there too, and I mean they were everywhere. We tried to bring dinner into the room to eat… Threw it out a couple minutes in because of how bad it was. I tried calling the desk and nobody answered. It was insanity. Staff was nice, but when it was brought up the next day it seemed that they could’ve cared less. Also, the door was SO insanely hard to open. I felt like I almost threw my shoulder out a few times just to get into the room. Overall, I will never be staying here again. I gave 2 stars only because the staff was polite. Otherwise, it would’ve absolutely been just 1. The attached pictures don’t even do justice to how disgusting it was."

Wingate by Wyndham Galveston Beachfront at the Seawall

6/10 Okay

"My room was ok, it was clean at check in. One floor towel, one shower towel thats it. Comforters were in the closet for some reason. Breakfast was not good at all. Waffle mix was watered down and only had 2 cereal options. Some fruits, bread and croissants. Apple juice, orange juice and watered down coffee. It's a cheap no frills motel across from the beach. They do charge $15 a day for parking."
