Pros:

The view and the pool were great!!

Cons:

We were given keys to rm 321. When we got there the sheets were off the bed and it wasn't ready. We met the janitorial staff in the hallway and they promptly gave us rm 320 which was awesome. The view was great! I didn't like $22 for breakfast. We, instead, walked to Miller's and ate cheaper with a window view of the ocean.

Hellllllll nooo
Pros:

Location. That’s it.

Cons:

It only took us three times asking to get towels. The pool was disgusting, spoons and everything else in the bottom of it. Our room was atrocious, poop or something on our shower curtain. Toilet was disgusting, and had someone else else’s urine on it when we got there. Door handles disgusting. Floors gross. Never again.

Long Puddle of Water with Green Algae Growing Beside the Swimming Pool
Pros:

Beside the swimming pool there is a long puddle of water with green algae. A quick Google search revealed the following: green algae, particularly blue-green algae (cyanobacteria), can produce toxins that are harmful to humans and animals when present in drinking water. Exposure can lead to symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, and even liver damage. I also saw sand in the swimming pool. It made me wonder if they cleaned the pool at all. Should be reported to the Galveston Health Dept. Stayed there 7-27-2026 to 7-29-2026.

Nightmare at the DoubleTree Galveston
Pros:

This is the most disgusting hotel we have ever stayed in. I will tell anyone who is planning to stay here not to stay. The pictures on the website are misleading. The room we stayed in had a very foul odor, the carpet was worn and dirty, the ceiling had white paint over what appeared to be mold or something black. the bathroom door was old and rusty, housekeeping did not clean room or bathroom, elevated was old, slow, and had a musky smell. This place is a rip off. This is the last time I will stay at a Hilton property
