We arrived for them to tell us the hotel was closed because the systems were down. No one called to tell us so we could make a new reservation elsewhere. No apology, no trying to help us find a place or offer of a discount for another stay. Worst customer service ever. I do not recommend in case you show up and they are closed and dont bother to let you know. We stayed at hotel next door and customer service was great!! I highly recommend them!!

I am not at all a picky person and usually just look for the cheapest room when I just need something for 1 night but this place is horrible. It’s dirty, run down, elevators are all broke so had to carry luggage up to 3rd floor, “continental breakfast” consisted of Little Debbi muffins and corn flakes. The room had an extremely foul odor that I couldn’t quite put my finger on. It reminded me of sulfur but not sure why it would have such a strong sulfur smell. The only positive thing I can say was that the bed was firm.

I like to stay at locally owned hotels to help small business owners, but my decision to stay here was not a good one. The hotel is out of date and while they are working on it it needs a lot. We had to change rooms because the room we were put in had a hole in the window with a board taped to it that was large enough for a person to crawl in through. At first they said that they would not be able to move me and I asked for a refund and they found me another room instead. The cleanliness of the places was only so so, and the pool was closed on the weekend.

The Commodore cancelled our reservation two days before our stay due to the fact that their air conditioning was out. We rebooked with Gaidos through Hotels.com. We were very pleased.

I’ve been staying at the Commodore since I was a kid. It’s my favorite hotel on the island. It’s not fancy, but it’s always been clean and convenient. The pool has always been very nice. This time, they called me a week before my scheduled arrival to tell me the elevator was out and the pool was closed. I was going to stay there anyway so I kept my reservation. Then, 30 minutes outside of Galveston I get a phone call. Whatever work they were having done, someone cut the chiller line and there was no AC in the hotel. They had to cancel my reservation. I was there on the island five days and in that time they never open back up. I never learned why the pool was closed. From the street there didn’t appear to be anything wrong with the pool area. It seems like they are just letting the property go. It’s very sad and disappointing.

It was an ok place to stay one night.
It was an OK place to spend the night. Had a great view of the beach! The only thing is I could not reach the locker there was a way up in the top of the door so I put a chair against the handle of the door So I could feel safer.

We had reservations. Motel was closed due to no electric. Did not call us even though it was out the day before so they knew people would be arriving. We arrive to check in and 2 ladies sitting there not doing anything, they could have been calling people to let us know!!! Very poor customer service, very inconsiderate. We then scrambled to find another hotel after driving for 4 hours!

First and last. I booked this hotel because of the pool. We arrived very late almost 1am. Very tired from delayed flight from canada. I booked for 2 beds, but we got 1 bed. I did not asked to changed because of tiredness. The pool is green because of algae, disgusting, not usable. But I paid full amount of $234. The site should not mention that there is a pool, because there is none.
