Best Western Hotel Texas City, Texas City

Clean, economical Hotel just outside the hustle and bustle of Main Galveston. Plenty of establishments in the area for dining or enjoying the evening. Plenty of fuel options close by. Not too far from the Galveston/Point Bolivar Ferry.

HI NashWeasel_23, Thank you so much for your kind words. I'm so pleased that you found us a clean and pleasant place to stay and that our location and services were to your liking. We take real pride in this hotel and in serving guests like you, and I'm extremely happy that you had such a pleasant stay. We look forward to having you with us again soon.

Overall we had a nice stay. The hotel is conveniently located just off the main hustle and bustle of the Galveston area. I think I was shocked at just how many people were actually staying there considering where it was located. With that being said it brings about the reasoning for 4 out of 5 on the review. The dining area is very small for the amount of people that was staying and dining that morning. It was packed and the size of the dining area made for a much noiser and busy breakfast area than we expected so we opted to go out. Otherwise everything else was great. The room was clean and the bed was very comfy and spacious.

Got upcharged for my room because they stated they charge per adult which was not stated online. Drove 9 hours before I was notified of this and ran out of breakfast before time was done for breakfast time.

We stayed for one night while awaiting our cruise from Galveston the next day. Most of the staff were friendly, the room was clean and spacious for 2 and the bed was comfortable. Breakfast was waffles, eggs, sausages, biscuits and gravy with coffee and juice. Coffee is actually located outside of dining area which was strange as we didn't actually find it until we were finished with breakfast. Overall though an enjoyable stay and would stay again.

Hi NEMcQueen, It is wonderful to hear that you enjoyed your stay and that you have rated our hospitality and accommodations so highly! Thank you so much for your compliments on our staff, breakfast, location and we were able to meet your expectations of cleanliness and service in our hotel. We can't begin to tell you how much we appreciate your review, and we can't wait to serve you again. Thank you very much!

We booked this hotel for one night before a cruise. The hotel was clean. It allowed the humidity outside in somehow, but the AC in room helped with that. Typical free breakfast with lots of choices. The waffle machine did not cook all the way through. Coffee is available at all hours in lobby which is a plus. Didn't use the pool but notice a lot of people enjoying it. Free parking is a plus.

We had a late check-out, but it didn't work out that way. The staff male room cleaner was knocking on our room door at 9:00am, We were just waking up, we told him the room was occupied and that we had a late check-out. But apparently he didn't understand or ignored us. he opened the room door and walked in, my wife was half naked. He immediately left the room, but only after he had a good look. We informed the manager, in which she only apologized and said she would talk to her staff person. And that was it. We feel more should have been done for us. Ruined our vacation. No one else has reached out to us. Go elsewhere. Insensitive Uncaring.

Hi Curiosity53015, Thank you for your recent stay and for taking the time to share your insightful comments. It saddens us to hear that we failed to meet your expectations and you found your stay unsatisfactory, especially with our housekeeping staff. Please accept our apologies for any issues you had with your room; we will address the concerns you raised with our team and work together on making improvements. We're grateful for your comments and wish you the very best in your future travels.

We booked two rooms before a cruise in late May 2022. When we went to put our son to bed in our room, we noticed the couch bed mattress had mouse droppings and a bunch of bugs. The person at the front desk offered us a refund if we wanted to find another hotel or a new room. Given we had traveled all day and it was 10:30 pm, we decided to just get a new room and asked to speak about a refund with the manager. The manager was supposed to call us, but never did. We have reached back out a couple of times and the manager is allegedly never there when we call and never returns our calls. The new room was clean, but smelled terrible. The entire hotel smells bad due to humidity problems, but the second floor is notably much worse. One other problem was that the side door was constantly left open by people who appeared to be laborers staying at the hotel regularly/longer term. I would recommend staying far away from this place unless the issues I mentioned don't bother you.

Dear Awarwick91, Thank you for pointing out the issues with housekeeping so that we can work to improve upon this aspect of the guest experience at our hotel. Our housekeeping staff is held to a very high standard and we appreciate that you've informed us of a need to address housekeeping policies and procedures. We also appreciate your time in pointing out the facilities in most need of attention as we work towards updating and improving upon our accommodations. We have a very stringent protocol for issues such as yours. We have a very reputed nationwide company that maintains our facility for any pest control issues. Please know, your description of your stay is highly unusual and does not represent the high standards we aim to achieve as our hotel does not have bed bugs and rooms are being inspected regularly. We are working to take care of all of the issues that you addressed and we thank you for taking the time to share your experience.

Larry, the manager, was superior. He went over and above what I would expect. We saw him doing any job that needed to be done. He even came to each room individually to get our tv connections back up and running. The hotel was very clean and the housekeeping girl for our room was fantastic!!!

Carpet on the elevators really needed to be cleaned. Room appeared to be clean but smelled a little musty. Hotel seems to be showing it's age and it will be interesting to see what happens when Best Western takes over after the first of the year.

Guest satisfaction is of the utmost importance, and please rest assured that your observations have been duly noted and will be dealt with appropriately. Once again, I thank you for your feedback and apologize for not providing you with a better stay.

Thought it was an excellent hotel only thing I noticed was the lobby men's bathrooms were not working and very dirty. Rooms were great. Pool was nice for the grandkids. Breakfast even though it was not the same as years ago it was still pretty good. I do wish Choice would go back to the full breakfast.
