First, I like to point out that the hotel is clean and nice in many ways. The ambiance is nice. However, I am a person that has no problem to spend the money for a nice hotel with nice rooms. This hotel is priced around the $300 mark per night and I would consider it at best a 3-star hotel. The reason for that is that the hotel is understaffed and with less than qualified people. At the very least, training is badly needed. I can say that from a level of experience as I stay in 4-5 star hotels about 300 nights a year for business travel. With this hotel, I took my wife on a weekend trip to Kemah. When we checked in, there was very little information supplied about the hotel. For example, we were told to hang a green tag on the mirror in the car to park in the parking building attached for the security to see. But they forgot to mentioned that there was a designated place to park for hotel guests. This became an issue later when we tried to find a parking lot on Saturday and Sunday evening and couldn't find one. We overheard in the hotel another couple talking about a designated area.... We asked the front desk and they said...oh yes, there is a place.... !!! They forgot to tell us that there is a pool and internet access available. We heard the front desk telling another guest. So we again asked the front desk why we were not made aware of it when checking in... no answer, just a deer-in-the-headlight look. The beds were uncomfortable. The 2nd night, the AC broke down!!!!

The best hotel experience ever! The young man working the lobby was amazing. He made us smile/laugh and was very accomadating when we got there way ahead of schedule. The location was perfect, and quiet. Was able to go down to the boardwalk in less than a minute. The outside balcony was perfect and decorated so cute for halloween. The hotel was so clean and smelt SO fresh. We are thinking about making this a yearly tradition! Loved every bit.
Had a small table by the balcony door, perfect for games.
Looking towards the bay, and boardwalk.
Cutest Halloween decor

This hotel is IDEAL if going on the party boat. You can easily walk to any restaurant and there are clubs within walking distance too. SO much to do at boardwalk. My only complaint is that there was a slight smell in the hallway… otherwise, I rate this a 5!!!

For a 3 star hotel it is very nice. You can tell is not a new property and aged, but considering the location and the spacious room it is worth it. It was very clean. Was a weekend getaway, right on the boardwalk. I would say fairly quiet considering all the nightlife going on below. You do hear the train passing by in the morning, it seems they were running for maintenance but it wasn’t too bad, since we were awake after 9am. Just something to note if someone wasn’t expecting. There were Halloween festivities going on the weekend we stayed. We had the top floor, 4th level room. The balcony looking down was great for people watching. Very convenient near lots of restaurants within and around the area. Great area to stroll around and be able to pop in and out of room. Staff was very friendly.
