My stay at Holiday Inn Resort Galveston was mostly fantastic, thanks to the staff's attentive service and the prime location right across from the beach. The room was clean and featured a comfortable bed, although there was a slight inconvenience with paid parking not being included in the total cost. The pool area was appealing, but it did get quite crowded at times. Overall, I had a great experience but with minor reservations regarding pricing and some noise from outside.
