I recently stayed at Moody Gardens Hotel, and it was a memorable experience! The variety of family-friendly activities kept my kids engaged, and the pool area was a real highlight. Although the room was clean and spacious, I found the pricing a bit steep for what was offered, especially considering some minor issues like the rusty tub. Overall, the staff was exceptional, but the unexpected hold policy on my account left a bit to be desired.
