The location was great. Easy to get to the Strand and the Seawall. Close to the Galveston Bagels shop. It was not as close to major groceries stores, but not too far out either. The house had pretty much everything you need. It was a little rough on folks with mobility issues, but we enjoyed our stay very much.
The house was the prefect size for our group. It was close to the seawall, easy to get in and out of. It had enough space that we could all be comfortable. The patio was very inviting and had plenty of room for everyone to sit and talk without being cramped. The balcony area was nice to just sit and enjoy the outside. We had such a great time!!

Needs maintenance
Upstairs shower floods the hardwood floors due to the design of the shower head angle and bathmats are not provided. Upstairs bathroom also has two screws sticking out of the wall that someone could get hurt on. Downstairs shower and tub does not drain properly and the pressure was very low. Had to go buy CLR to soak shower heads in just so we could shower and get clean. The 5th bedroom located outside the back door had plumbing issues as well. The drain leaked water on top of the washing machine. I say this but overall with the proper maintenance this could be a great place!
