Island Hot Spot
Hidden gem - been coming to Galveston for years. First time at Lucine and we will be back. Great vibes, great views (upstairs bar/patio, the pool is awesome, mid-century decor) and a great stay!

Cute pool, Small rooms
Boutique hotel with nice common areas like lobby, bar and pool. It would be nice if the same attention was put into the rooms though. The rooms are quite small with no seating other than the bed and no where to hang wet suits and towels unless you had one of the few balcony rooms. I like that they keep some of the vintage feel but there are many signs of wear, especially in the bathroom. The rooms upstairs seem to be a bit bigger (we stayed downstairs and friends stayed upstairs).

Upscale for Galveston but missed on a couple point
Everything about the stay was great except for a couple interactions with hotel staff. I had a really unpleasant interaction with the housekeeping staff that was unnecessary and unprovoked.
Billing with hotels.com was also unclear and I was billed an extra for resort fees and booking fees after the fact. A 1 night stay was over $300 which was not worth it.
