Great Place Near the Strand

Love the place and how it’s in the middle of everything from the Strand to the Pier. Only complaint was how noisy the street was outside the windows but that’s expected when staying anywhere downtown. Overall really great place and would stay again!

The value and charm at this rental was wonderful. It was street light bright at night but just put towel over uncovered window in master and there were zero issues sleeping. Will definitely remember this location.

Great location & lovely place

It is a lovely, well appointed, nicely updated apartment with historic charm in a great location with many restaurants within walking distance. We were only there one night before getting on a cruise - also within close proximity - but wish it could've been longer. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Birthday

2 couples, 78 yr old, celebrating a birthday. We enjoyed our stay. We had everything we needed and then some. Loved the walkability to the Strand…shops and restaurants. No complaints. Would stay here again….the only thing that could make it batter is an elevator….maybe some lamps in the living room for reading.

Property was amazing and an easy walk to the strand. Didn’t like that they have no way to store luggage. We like to travel early in the day to have more time to experience the areas we travel to and having to find a place to keep our luggage was very in convenient, but we made the best of it.

Texas am Galveston parents

Convenient location to the strand and market at restaurants and Texas AM campus. The area directly surrounding seems to be in sort of transition as some building look to be abandoned. However always felt safe walking around which we did quite a bit. Texas am campus is a short drive.

I really enjoyed this property and would stay again. I only stayed one night, for rest. However, my daughter and I loved it. It is cute, cozy and clean. The communication was wonderful and the bed was so comfortable. The parking is less than ideal, but that's downtown anywhere for you.

Juneteenth In Galveston

Great spot for our overnight trip to celebrate Juneteenth in the Birth City of the holiday.💚❤️💛🖤 Home was quaint, cute, and awesome for the price. Accomadations met the need of our family of 6. Only suggestions, but didn't impact our satisfaction; more towels, sugar packets (if sweetner is to be offered), frig could've be cleaner.. also, there was no large trash can area available to take trash out as desired in the departure instructions.

Noisy unit

The apartment was nice and well equipped. The bedroom with the three beds was very noisy at night due to the street traffic along with being brightly lit due to the hallway light shining threw the window. The second night we stayed the upstairs unit above us was stomping on the floor and singing until 2am and again at 6am the next morning.

Great location

Older, but well kept loft. Good location, close to the Strand. Had creaky floors, but that's to be expected from such an old building. Not handicap accessible. Looks like there may have once been an elevator, but it's not in use, so you have to climb stairs to get to the loft. Was not an issue for us though.

Great place close to The Strand. Plenty of restaurants, antique shops, shopping, etc. . . . Parking in front of the building is limited to 2 hours between 9-6 pm. A little inconvenient but not a big deal. Unlimited parking a few streets over. Plenty of cooking supplies. Washer/Dryer combo. Dryer is very slow, just plan to dry overnight. Great communication. Great location. Will stay with Beach Box again.
