  • robbery
    By TammyK, 07/06/09
    I was robbed 113.00 for this manager on july 4th. I knew the place was not completely back up and running since IKE, I didn't need a room, I stayed in a tent with hubby, friend of mine wanted to come for the night but wanted a room. I told her this place was a dumb and less than motel * she said she didn't care as long as it had a/c, so ...

  • Name that Smell
    By Buddy, 04/12/08
    My wife and I spent a couple of nights in Chrystal Beach. The first night at the Crystal Beach Palace, the next night in the back of my pickup truck on the beach. I strongly recommend the bed of a truck. There is a store with an outside shower just down the road. We still call that place the “Name that Smell Hotel” And remember take plenty of bug spray.

  • Sleep in your car, instead.
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/20/07
    We almost stayed there one night. Both rooms looked like they hadn't been fixed or cleaned since 2 hurricanes ago. Decided that crack hos wouldn't stay here. There was a sign that said "No Refunds after 30 minutes." We got our refund and stayed in Galveston, instead.
    Great location. No value. No service. No cleaning.

  • You get what you pay for.
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/06/07
    You guys really think you're going to get a NICE room at Crystal for 69$ on a weekend? Because you're not.

    Get real. If you want somewhere super nice, you're going to have to rent a cabin. Get over it.

    It wasn't THAT bad, and not near as bad as some of the places in Galveston.

  • I could have told you.....
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/03/07
    I have been going to Crystal Beach every year two to three times per year for the last 20 yrs, and have finally become a semi-permanent resident, I have had many people ask me about the so called "resort"-and I am quick to recommend another place---one can tell by just looking at outward appearances this is not nor has it ever been a ...

  • pretend phone
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/02/07
    Well, at first i'll admit I was impressed with the price but by the time i got to the room i realized i had been jipped. The phone in the room lacked a phone cable which knocked communication to a cell phone game of tag. The television was missing most of the buttons and someone had been putting cigarrettes out on the carpet for the past few years.

  • Absolute Dump
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/05/06
    Broken phone, broken table, broken lamp, and ply-wood walls. Didn't stay long enough to see the roaches. Tried to get refund and owner called police on me. Now I'm trying to dispute the charge to my account. What a way to ruin my holiday weekend! Please go somewhere else!!!!!!!!!!
