It wasn’t what I expected at all. Upon arrival it was cute on the outside. The room was a big open dated space. I was surprised to see title floors and not carpet. Which was okay considering I didn’t see any bugs thank goodness!!! BUT, the door/lock knob to the room was a typical door knob you’d have at your house. I didn’t feel safe at all. I was handed a key on a scrunchie wrist band. Made me wonder do they rekey the key? The couldn’t possibly. The bathroom windows were the windows that you can’t see out and I guess you can’t see in. However, I would have preferred curtains for privacy. The shower was designed nice. I only stayed one night because I was leaving for a cruise the next morning. I actually hate rooms that you open from the street and not from inside of a lobby area. There was a language barrier and we did the best we could to understand each other. I would not stay here again. But someone else may be okay with it.

Constant noise. All night. Infrastructure falling apart. Ac worked and someone had made an effort to clean. Everything else was crap. Window shades bad, tv bad, fridge banged every 15 mins, outlets all broken, 1/2 crack around door. No inside lock. All in all worst hotel I have ever stayed in. Only didn’t leave at 2am cause I put on headphones.
Let me be clear, I do not complain, this was 10x worse than you are thinking.

The tables and flat surfaces weren't wiped down and had some residue on them. The duvet had dried questionable stains on it.

Property was disgusting and falling apart. The room looked nothing like advertised. No toilet seat, no shower head, the shower was open in the room and would flood the floor. The bed was nailed to plywood, all bedding was thin and extremely uncomfortable. I cannot say enough bad things about this hotel. We tried to see if they were on the BBB to get them shut down. The city of Miami should be investigating this property for health code violations. DO NOT STAY HERE, I CANNOT EMPHASIS IT ENOUGH.

The room is barren, looks nothing like the photos, no paint on the walls, no headboard, barely any furniture. Just a bed, a side table with a wonky lamp, dresser, tv, and mini fridge. Sort of a musty odor inside. I arrived late because of delayed flights, and had to knock on the window for a while before a man appeared, who did not speak English. Was able to get into my room. The following morning I wanted to see if there was a Wifi password since my cell service was weak there, and I could not find anyone at all. When I checked out, had the same problem, couldn't find anyone. I left my key in the slot and hoped for the best.

Here are two polished, honest review options you can use for Galveston Cove Hotel. Both are firm and factual, without exaggeration.

Detailed & Professional

My stay at Galveston Cove Hotel from December 26–27 was extremely disappointing and far below acceptable standards. The hot water barely worked, making it difficult to shower comfortably. The microwave in the room was heavily rusted, which is unacceptable and raises serious hygiene concerns.

Even more troubling was the presence of mold in the room, creating an unpleasant and unhealthy environment during my stay. These issues clearly indicate poor maintenance and lack of attention to basic guest comfort and safety.

Based on this experience, I would not recommend this hotel and believe significant improvements are urgently needed.

The morning staffing was great, I had a minor issue and it was corrected immediately. The hotel was very close to the airport and a reasonable distance to the Port for my cruise ship. Good place to stay at a reasonable price. Local food and restaurants nearby for quick eats and their is a nice kinda upscale restaurant and party area not far away.(Within walking distance) There's a 24 hour laundry mat also in reasonable walking distance as well.i met a few nice people staying there and it's also pet friendly. The check in staff could be a little better but I do believe the miscommunication was due to a language barrier issue and the newer staffing operations but all in all nice place to stay will do again when I fly into Miami....

My boyfriend and I stayed in 229 and the room was not clean. The walls all around had stains and dirt marks all over. the door has footprints on it and so did other places around the room. The furniture had a sticky surface, the bed did not smell or look clean. The shower had hairs on it, and overall it just didn't smell clean either. I think this place needs to put some work into their maintenance even though it was the most affordable we could find doesn't mean we should get a nasty room. The boogers on the bathroom wall really weren't acceptable. To be honest with anyone reading this, the picture they provide for this \"hotel\" that is more of a motel looks absolutely nothing like it is in person.

Night manager was strangely defensive - all I said was \"I'd like to check in\" and he started going on and on totally unprompted about how a previous guest took one look at their room and canceled their stay, and how people shouldn't expect 5-star stays at these prices. Guess he's not wrong.

There’s trash piled on the side of the building, make-up smeared on the mirror, clumps of hair in the shower and to top it off they couldn’t find our reservation made six months.

Awful!! When we first arrived they could not find our reservation. I showed them the receipt and they tried to say that I had not paid, because expedia does not pay them. I had to call Expedia and have them call. When we finally got in the room it was DISGUSTING!!! Our feet were sticking to the floor. The bed was literally peeling and clearly the sheets had not been changed! There was hair ALL OVER the bed (see pics)! The corner of the bed also looked like it had been chewed up by a dog, unfortunately that got cut off in the pic. The TV would not come on until we unplugged it and plugged it back in and then would not change channels, and there was 1 towel, no hand towel or washcloth. It was so gross I would not even sit down. I called Expedia and asked them to get us moved. We were able to move, but had to pay for a new hotel and then wait until the next day for expedia to to get ahold of the hotel manager to refund our money. Expedia was great and at least the hotel refunded our money...but the pics they have posted are very deceitful!!
