  Jerry B from Spring, Texas recommends this vacation rental

  We enjoy the Galvestonian and stay here atleast once per year. Unit 1204 was not clean, There was sand on the floor and our feet turned black walking bear foot in the unit. There were coffee grounds behind the trash can on the floor in the kitchen. The ice machine leaked into the ice tray so it was always a brick of ice. This unit is also one of the few that appear to have not been upgraded in the kitchen or the bathrooms. We will be back to the Galvestonian but not this unit.

  We had a wonderful stay in Galveston! The condo was comfortable and clean and had everything we needed!
  The front desk employees were also extremely helpful with my special requests. We spent the majority of our time on the balcony, beach or in the pool/hot tub! We did venture out one night for sushi at Yamato Japanese Restaurant on 61st- highly recommend their seasonal sushi menu!!
