My Husband and myself really enjoyed our stay. We had access to a lot of things ad everything was in a reasonable distance. I recommend anyone stay here.

Very comfortable, very convenient to wedding site,reception and rehearsal party.

The only real problem was it was so far away from the seawall and shopping areas. Otherwise its a nice plain little hotel.

It wasn't far from all the main attractions that there is in Galveston and it was away from all the traffic. The hotels sits in fron of railroad tracks so the train is annoying especially if your trying to sleep.

we enjoyed it. we did have to change rooms because first room t.v. did not work. The shower was great had to shower heads and good pressure in first room. when moved to room next door, the shower there flooded the bathroom floor, drain stopped up. But the bed was comfortable and slept well. unfortunately was right next to a train which did wake us in the night.

Our stay was very nice. The only "issue" would be on the day we were to checkout housekeeping knocked on our door at 9. The lady told us that "the front desk said we had to check out"! That was a little agravating because checkout is suppose to be noon! The rooms were very clean. Check in and out was quick!

Location is perfect from Galveston Port if anyone is looking for a inexpensive stay the day before a cruise. $15.00 cab ride to port

It was ok.

the stay there was not that bad the only thing I had a problem with was the training going by so often at night kept me awake until about midnight when the train finally stopped coming by. the best part was I was able to park my car there while on my cruz came everything was great

The personnel was courtious, and friendly. The room was average, but clean. The neighborhood was'nt the best.

I chose this hotel based mostly on the other Hotels.com reviews and the price. I was more interested in being on the island than in what amenities were offered since the plan was to spend most of our time out doing other things. It was too short of a trip to spend long hours lounging by the pool. The continental breakfast was good, the staff was extremely friendly and helpful, and the room was clean -- there isn't much more I wanted. I also like the convenience of the gas station immediately next door. I walked over there twice to get soda and snacks. Incidentally, the gas station attendant was extremely friendly, too. It doesn't look like the best neighborhood but we didn't run into any problems. The train running by several times a day could definitely be bothersome but I live near tracks so I'm somewhat used to the noise already.

There're nothing overly special about the rooms. Clean. Convenient. I chose this one over the others because of the free wi-fi. The guy who checked us in was very nice, also. Fridge and tvs in the rooms.. good stay for the price.

very nic and not too expensive - got our moniea worth

This was a stop over the night before our cruise. The hotel is ok for this. However, the room smelled, there is no view of anything and the neighborhood isn't the best. The staff was great and very friendly.

It was ok we just didn't like the breakfast

I had read some of the reviews before I booked the room. The nearby railroad tracks seemed to bother some people so that was of concern to me since the two of us were in Galveston to rest and relax. Trains came by while we were in the room but they were no bother. Every employee I encountered at the property was friendly, courteous and business like. The room was clean when we arrived. Being close to Broadway made it easy to get to everything we were going ro visit. We have already told friends about this place.

That's about all the good I can say about it. When we pulled up, the smell or urine was over powering. Every time we left the room, the cards had to be reset to open the door - very annoying. The sink didn't drain well, the faucet was loose and broken, the beds were hard as a rock, and the TV had lines and fuzz running through it. The 'continental breakfast' was a couple of muffins in a case, an empty cereal dispenser, a packet of oatmeal laying on the counter, and an apple/orange juice dispenser. VERY disappointing for $135 a night. I will not stay here again.

When u look at the pictures before u reserves ur room it looks nice when u get to the motel u will see its not that great looking but not bad I have been n worse then u get n ur room the ac barly works the frig don't get cold remote don't work the bathroom has mold and to top it off when checking n the it took the guy 5 mins to come to the window afte driving 8 hours u don't want to stand there and then he says oh u have to pay for ur 3 kids ur reservation was for only 2 adults which we had to show him the paper thank god I printed it out and brought with then next day room key did not work and made 6 trips back down stairs to get it fix there is no breakfest like it says let's just say I will never stay here again

The hotel room we chose was non-smoking, but smelled like smoke covered by air freshener fragrance. The hotel is not close to the sights of the island, about 15 minutes away. But if you need a cheap hotel for a night, it works.

I will not stay there again.

We booked two rooms with double beds and did not get what we reserved in one of the rooms.The check-in time was at 3pm and we were not informed therefore we had to change into our swim suits in the main lobby. I do not feel that the cost of the room vs the time you have the room is an appropriate price.

My boyfriend and I booked 2 rooms for us and our 4 boys. We stayed 2 nights. Continental breakfast was from 7:00 a.m. until 10:00 a.m. The first morning, at 9:00 a.m., my boyfriend and I went to get continental breakfast from the front office to take back to the room for the boys while they were getting dressed. We only took what was needed for us. On the way back to the room we saw the front desk manager. He saw us with the food and did not say anything to us about taking the food back to our rooms. The next morning, the boys were exhausted, so we let them sleep in. My boyfriend and I got up again to go get breakfast to take back to the room. It was about 8:00 a.m. The same front desk manager that saw us the previous morning with breakfast approached us in front of all the other guests and told us in a very rude, loud voice that we could not take the food back to our room, but that everyone must eat the food there. We told him that we did this on yesterday and that it wasn't a problem. He said, "Yes, yes I saw what you did on yesterday and that is not okay." My problem with the whole situation is that he could have approached us one on one when he saw us the first day. He didn't have to wait to get us in front of everyone and insult us. We didn't take all of the food the previous day-- we only took what we needed. That was so unneccessary. As a result, the name "Howard Johnson" makes my stomach turn. I won't be staying at any of their hotels again from this day forward....

Enjoyed the hotel. Friendly staff. Clean rooms. Location was not too far from entertainment. Easy to get to.

The hotel wasn't so bad for sleeping. There was a train that whistles loudly right beside the hotel. I was very upset that the guy at the desk put us in a room directly under and beside a group of LOUD intoxicated people, knowing their situation because they were there the previous night.

The owner stalker me for 2 nights. He threw my loofa away and purposely gave me dirty towels. I knew they were dirty because they had black foot prints on them. He said I had to pay for another person, except It was only me. He wouldn't let me leave my room key unless i paid. I paid cash so he would not charge my card and he pocketed the money and would not give me a receipt. And besides all that, there is a train that passes at night, and it is extremely loud.

Being that we were only there to sleep, it was okay at best. Had we known there was a train track right next to our window that runs and whistles at 10pm then again at 11pm, we would not have stayed here. I thought the lighting in the shower room was pretty dim and wondered if it was to keep anyone seeing how dirty it really was. Hotel staff was friendly and tended to our room quickly with our needs.

The men that you have working there are not polite at all. I had five people and was only given 3 towels. When asked for more towels we were told that we had 8 people in our room and not given any more towels! We were constantly being WATCHED!! I have stayed there for the last three summers and have never had any problems but after this summer I will have to find a new place to stay every summer when I visit Galveston. VERY disappointed!

I thought the hotel is way over priced for what you get. I did not find this hotel very kid friendly.

I tried calling the hotel directly several times with no luck, it went to voicemail every time. When going to check out @ 11:00am, which had to be done by noon, had to wait for 30 mins before the only person working the desk ever showed up. I attempted to get the cleaning lady to contact the manager and she gave me a dirty look and wouldn't help. The room wasn't bad, but it is right next to the train tracks, so I was woken up several times by passing trains.

Fast and easy check in and close to event relative was down for.

I enjoyed my stay at Howard Johnson Hotel in Galveston,Tx. I was there for the Texas Annual Conference that was at the Galveston Convention Center. There were no problem finding the Hotel. The staff were very nice.

Although the location was not exactly creme de la creme, next to a railway station, I must say, I can only recommend this hotel.The personnel was very friendly and helpful, the hotel was clean and well maintained.The price was, compared to others at a more convenient location, very affordable.This hotel is definitely worth the money.

I was unable to keep my revervation due to a family emergency. I called to cancel/preferably reschedule and was put on the phone with someone who did not even work at the hotel named 'Joshua' and was told that I'd still be charged the full amount regardless. When I asked to speak with a manager/someone at the hotel, I was told that he 'could not transfer my call'. So I paid for a room that I was unable to use and I'm sure it booked immediately after i called, considering it was memorial day weekend. Unacceptable and completely dissatisfying.

The view was horrible and the train woke us up at 6:00am in the morning. We did not stay in the room much as we were at the beach all day. Not bad location right next to a gas station.

The motel property was located just off an interstate, but in an industrial area. The motel was old and outdated. The continental breakfast was disgusting and the front lobby dirty. The bed was the most uncomfortable I've ever slept in - like sleeping on a concrete rock. Extremely disappointed. This place was a dive!!!

The room had every item that I needed. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. I had a great time. If I ever visit Galveston again, I will stay at this hotel.
