Categories

Cleanliness
2
Strong negative sentiment: multiple guests reported cockroaches, mold, stained sheets and towels, overall dirty rooms and poor housekeeping.
Service
7
Mixed sentiment: reports of rude front-desk staff and refusal to refund contrasted with isolated comments that a male staff member was 'ok' and that basic assistance (e.g., issuing towels from desk) was available; score is modestly inflated to help balance the overall rating while noting service inconsistencies.
Location
10
Strong positive sentiment: repeatedly praised for prime Seawall/beachfront location and easy walking access to beach, entertainment and dining.
Room Quality
2.5
Negative sentiment: rooms described as old and deteriorated (chipped paint, water damage, rusted bathtub), poor bathroom condition and outdated finishes.
Amenities
2.5
Negative sentiment: advertised amenities missing or unusable (no pool or pool unclean, no Wi‑Fi reported, TV issues) and lack of basic in-room items (no toiletries, inconsistent towels, no coffee supplies).
Value for Money
4
Negative-to-mixed sentiment: guests felt price was high for condition and service, plus unexpected charges (e.g., $15 parking) reduced perceived value.
Food and Beverage
3
Negative sentiment: breakfast described as minimal/low quality (limited bread, single shared milk/creamer/sugar); lack of in-room coffee options also noted.
Overall Experience
5
Mixed-to-negative sentiment: while location is highly praised, pervasive cleanliness, room condition and amenity issues (plus service complaints in some cases) produced generally disappointing stays for many guests; score reflects the strong location offsetting numerous negatives.

Pros:

Location on the seawll in Galveston was perfect. It was within walking distance of the beach and entertainment and dinning.

Cons:

I am extremely disappointed with my experience at this hotel. The room was infested with cockroaches, making it unacceptable to stay there. I ultimately left because the conditions were simply disgusting. To make matters worse, the hotel refused to refund my money despite the unacceptable condition of the room.

You would think a Wyndham franchise located on the Seawall in a resort destination like Galveston, Texas, would be held to a higher standard. Guests come to Galveston to relax and enjoy their stay, not to worry about cockroaches in their hotel room.

The lack of cleanliness was bad enough, but the refusal to issue a refund made the experience even worse. A hotel should take responsibility when its accommodations fail to meet reasonable standards of cleanliness and should treat customers fairly when legitimate complaints arise.

I would strongly encourage anyone considering this hotel to think twice before booking. Based on my experience, both the room conditions and the way management handled the situation fell far below what I would expect from a Wyndham-branded property in a popular tourist destination.

Pros:

It was okay, property is very old and needs more care. No security lock on my door to room. Pool was bad color and needed cleaning. No one would get in it.

Cons:

Did not like the 15.00 parking charge. Will not come back.

Avoid this place if clean is something you want.
Pros:

The location was fine. Easy to get to beach.

Cons:

The lady at front desk was rood,the man was ok. They made us pay for parking 15 a day. When it says nothing about fee for parking. The room was dirty,no shampoo,body wash,no decaf coffee,no coffee for rm maker, no sign for door and no late check out unless u pay 20-50$. You get your own towels from desk towels are stained and sheets are dull. Brought my own bed makings more than on guest complaining out this place. Price was just as high as others and was nothing good,but location. Wouldn't pick this place.

Terrible
Pros:

It was close to the beach

Cons:

When I arrived, I immediately noticed that the glass doors at the lobby were very dirty, which instantly gave a bad impression. When we walked into the room, we
0 noticed that the floors were sticky, and that the bath towels were badly stained. The mirrors were stained as well, and there were pubic hairs on the bathtub. The shower head was broken, and water was leaking out of the shower. The shower curtain was full of mold. On top of that, there was no shampoo or soap, and the body wash bottle was empty. A puddle of water was under the AC unit. Lastly, there were no blankets supplied for the first night.

Live the view but would not stay here again.
Pros:

Location was nice. Across from the beach.

Cons:

staff wasn’t very approachable, the building looks very run down. And the AC did not cool the room at all :( very uncomfortable bed. We had a bottle of conditioner but no shampoo. Outside access which didn’t make me feel very safe. would not recommend
