Pros:

The front desk employee was very energetic and really seemed like he likes his job. Very refreshing. The breakfast attendants were on top of making sure nothing ran out. They also stayed on top of wiping tables for the next guest to have a clean table to eat on

Cons:

The computer in the business center did not work and neither did the AC. The dryer did not dry my clothes so I had to find a laundry mat after spending over an hour in the laundry room.

Very much exceeded our expectations for the price!
Pros:

The breakfast was the best!
We’re currently living in a hotel back home after our house took on flooding almost 2 weeks ago and my kids ask every morning why this hotel doesn’t have the same breakfast! It was a hit. The pool was nice and clean. The staff were excellent. Also loved being able to find a hotel room that could accommodate my family of 6, thanks to the queen sleeper sofa. We don’t see that often!

Cons:

Nothing!

Very disappointed I had paid for the entire stay even before I arrived. The room floor was dirty too
Pros:

Didn’t eat there because of the roach incident the day I checked into the room.

Cons:

Upon arrival it smelled horrible in the hotel. The room was worse it smelled of pesticide. Then there was the big roaches we had to go after and kill. So grossed out we didn’t chance eating snacks in the room much less get breakfast. Had to adjust the budget so we could go out for breakfast. Black mold in the bathroom and I am immunocompromised due to treatment of cancer diagnosis. This trip was to get me away from that for a few days. Saddened that this happened and the smell made your nose get stuffy and get a headache. Very disappointed in Holiday Inn my first and last stay at that place.

Everything was great and I would definitely stay again.
Pros:

The property was well-kept and right across from the beach. It was far enough away from the business of Galveston, which was perfect for my family, but close enough for all the fun!

Cons:

I wish breakfast was switched up a little and that more focus was on little kids going up on their own and touching everything.

Pros:

Right across from the beach. Pool had two hot tubs. Lots of towels. I could see beach from balcony. Seemed safe. No problems with car under. Close to everything though east and is better than west.

Cons:

Crossing road seemed dangerous, though you could walk 300 feet to light. Really not their issue.
