Baymont by Wyndham Galveston

Baymont by Wyndham Galveston

10/10 Excellent
"Everything about this property was great. It was walking distance to the beach and plenty of shopping. The only thing I would say that was less than great is how crowded the breakfast area was. Everything is in a straight line along the same wall and it got just a little tight (especially at the waffle making area)! But the food was great and we managed with the crowd. "
