Beachtown Hotels, Galveston

"Friendly staff, clean room & bathroom, hotel perfect for a stay before cruising. Continental breakfast included in price is self service with a great selection. Hotel is very convenient for cruising & there is a shuttle to the port for 15usd return. Very close to town centre & opposite Willie G's for food & drinks. Regrettably no bar, lounge or restaurant at hotel."

"I was not told they were going to be doing renovations. The whole property was a mess and under construction. Rooms were dirty and looked like they were given the "landlord special". We were told to go next door for breakfast since ours was under renovation. Keys didn't work to the pool. Fire alarm went off during the night. Awful experience "

"Didn’t try the laundry service and I didn’t have a have a car "

"Nice place to stay pre-cruise."

"Nothing to really complain about for this property other than the room air conditioner fan would not shut off despite anything you did to it. The property was clean, the staff was very friendly and helpful!"

"Didn’t use the pool"

"Was great for our family"

"Corner room with ocean view. Bathroom could use some work. Curtains out of tract. Waited 40 minutes for room to be ready. Desk person was very apologetic and attentive."

"I promise, I’m not a high maintenance person…ask my husband. This property was old, grungy, and not at all what I was expecting or hoping for based on pictures, reviews, etc. The staff that greeted us, straight up lied to our faces, was defense when called out on it, and we still didn’t get the right room. We had done online check-in the night before. I was given the option to select the room I wanted and the room was guaranteed to a credit card. We selected the top floor to see over the thatch-roofed bar to see the ocean. When we arrived after 14+ hours of travel, and stops at several other hotels to drop folks off, we were exhausted. We checked in at the desk and our keycard said floor 2. When I inquired, she said she had to select my room by 5pm that same day because we weren’t there. The room I had selected (518) was no longer available (even though I have a pic of the confirmation). She said there was nothing she could do. My best guess, of course, is she gave our room away because we hadn’t physically checked in yet (by 5pm…really?). I was not happy, not at all. She claimed my “pre check-in” didn’t take in the system. If that’s the case, why can I show confirmation of the room I selected? I could’ve lived with the condition of the hotel even though it was def not the “Excellent” other guests said it was. The lying, I will not tolerate. Very disappointed in this Hilton Hotel. Do not recommend, not only for character of staff, but also condition of hotel. Thanks!"
