Galveston Ocean Star Offshore Drilling Rig and Museum Hotels

"I was very disappointed in my stay. When I checked in I found that the fridge wasn’t working, there were no robes provided, if you wanted hot water in the shower or sink you would have to run the water for at least 5 min and the lighting was horrible. There was no makeup mirror and the brightest part of the room was the toilet, so if I wanted to read I would have to sit on the toilet. And to top it off when you got off the elevator the mildew smell in the halls was overwhelming. What was once a lovely hotel is now a high priced motel."

"We absolutely loved it here! The old time Victorian charm is everywhere in this mansion. Its location is perfect for a short walk to the strand for shopping and eats. It’s also just a 5 minute drive to the Seawall. The staff is amazing and very hospitable. Drinks are free at the evening social hour where you have a chance to meet other guests and staff. The breakfast each morning is delicious and comes with French press coffee brewing right at your table. We will definitely be back."

"Best stay for going on cruise. They offer $16 shuttles so that’s the best part. Breakfast could be a little better "

"Beach view faced buildings and a vacant parking lot. Side view of beach about 30%. We asked for ocean view at check-in and was told “the room your getting will be fine. You probably won’t stay in your room anyway”. I said we wanted to sit on balcony and enjoy the morning coffee view of ocean and would pay extra but they would not change it for us."

"Very nice hotel. Beautiful inside and outside. "

"Very cute little loft! It was just what we needed for one quick night in Galveston. Everything was clean and just as described. It was a little noisy at night with street noise, but next time I would just bring a sound machine to help drown it out. Overall it was a pleasant stay and we’ll recommend it to friends who want to stay on the Strand."

"This was second time staying at property, different units each. I find its location to be very convenient to the strand and close to the cruise terminals, but it’s enough blocks off the strand to be quiet. It’s a great value compared to most hotels in the area. The property management is great, kept and open dialogue the entire trip and checked in to make sure everything was ok. Trust me you can’t go wrong renting one of these units in the League Lots, or anything from Beachbox, they are fantastic to work with."

"Everything was great and as described. Communicating with the host was great. Chris, who greeted us, was very friendly and helpful. Fun and a unique experience! Easy walk to the port for a cruise. "

"It was great. The place was clean and easy to access and very spacious."
