Quality Inn & Suites Galveston - Beachfront
The room was spotless! Great staff, very accommodating. In fact, when the "bikers" outside were blaring their rap trash music, someone from management told them to turn it off!!! Thank you!!

Nice hotel. Staff nice. Mattress was ok, but definitely not great. The rooms are somewhat overpriced for the property.
