The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I have stayed at the Galvestonian several times with my family. Unfortunately this stay in Unit 303 left much to be desired. The unit smelled of smoke, had torn pillows and lampshades, and had the bare minimum of accommodations. While I will return to the Galvestonian, I will not be staying again in Unit 303. ##### Beth C.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We arrived earl due to a storm coming. The wind was so bad we had we could not use the main doors to enter. They would not let us check in at that time (3:00PM). Left and can back ant was traumatic getting into the building . Unfortunately it stormed the morning we left. Again it is unpleasant checking out. With weather situations there need some flexibility. Never stayed in a beach condo with NO laundry facilities . No where to put wet bathing suits or towels in unit or dry them. No hairdryer!,Our unit needed more seating. 4 was max to see TV comfortly. ##### Frances G. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [AC Hotel by Marriott Dallas Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dallas-Hotels-AC-Hotel-By-Marriott-Dallas-Downtown.h18228514.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Austin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Fairmont-Austin.h18156638.Hotel-Information) > > [South Congress Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-South-Congress-Hotel.h9869259.Hotel-Information) > > [Ramada Plaza by Wyndham Antalya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Antalya-Hotels-Ramada-Plaza-By-Wyndham-Antalya.h2832131.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton University of Houston](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-Hilton-University-Of-Houston.h40758.Hotel-Information) > > [Sonder by Marriott Bonvoy East 5th Apartments East Austin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Sonder-East-5th.h39486446.Hotel-Information) > > [The Reside](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-The-Reside.h22169664.Hotel-Information) > > [The Driskill, in The Unbound Collection by Hyatt](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-The-Driskill.h425573.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Dallas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dallas-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Dallas.h24753.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Dubai](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Dubai-Hotels.s50-0-d6053839.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [AC Hotel by Marriott Houston Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-AC-Hotel-By-Marriott-Houston-Downtown.h36715633.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Houston/Galleria](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-HoustonGalleria.h10620692.Hotel-Information) > > [Moody Gardens Hotel, Spa and Convention Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galveston-Hotels-Moody-Gardens-Hotel.h157238.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt House Austin/Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Hyatt-House-AustinDowntown.h17061159.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Austin Downtown Capitol](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-DoubleTree-Suites-By-Hilton-Austin.h24523.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Austin NW - Four Points by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Austin-NW-Four-Points.h9836657.Hotel-Information) > > [Magnolia Hotel Dallas Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dallas-Hotels-Magnolia-Hotel-Dallas-Downtown.h282336.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Americas-Houston](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-Hilton-Americas-Houston.h976144.Hotel-Information) > > [Sonesta Hotel Houston IAH Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-Sonesta-Hotel-Houston-IAH-Airport.h23787.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Austin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Austin.h20597750.Hotel-Information) > > [Downright Austin, A Renaissance Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Downright-Austin.h7518.Hotel-Information) > > [Residence Inn by Marriott Austin Downtown/Convention Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Residence-Inn-By-Marriott-Austin-DowntownConvention-Center.h1453501.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Dallas Downtown by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dallas-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Hotel-Dallas-Downtown.h40414.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place Austin Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Austin-Downtown.h5437747.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Dallas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dallas-Hotels-Fairmont-Dallas.h18280.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Indigo Austin Downtown - University by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Hotel-Indigo-Austin-Downtown-University.h12294834.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Strasbourg](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Strasbourg-Hotels.d6217179.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hyatt Regency Houston Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Houston.h20005.Hotel-Information) > > [Staybridge Suites Houston Galleria Area by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Houston-Hotels-Staybridge-Suites-Houston-Galleria-Area.h57536940.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Austin University Capitol District](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Austin-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Austin-University-Capitol-District.h66911977.Hotel-Information)
